She&Her "You're a Good Man Charlie Brown" review by Look@Epitaph

The Truth about Charlie
Rating: 5

You're A Good Man Charlie Brown
She&Her Productions

If you are tired of the same'ol-same'ol theatre in the same boring spaces - you owe it to yourself to get down to the west bottoms – (no, don't go to the haunted houses) - go right around the corner from the Edge of Hell to She&Her's new theatre space in the old crane building.  The space is amazing - open yet intimate, rustic yet refined - a very versatile environment that breathes creativity.   I haven't been so impressed with a space in a long time.

Tiffany Garrison-Schweigert & Jennifer Coville have done a truly amazing job not only finding one of the coolest and exciting new performance spaces in the metro area, but also with their debut offering of the Peanuts inspired musical, "You're A Good Man Charlie Brown".

This was by far one of the best performances of "You're a Good Man Charlie Brown" I have ever seen, and one of the most talented ensembles that I have seen in a long while.  Everyone in the cast has an amazing voice and perfectly embodied their characters.  It had been nearly 5 years since I had seen this show and this time around it felt fresh and new - almost like a completely different show than any of the previous productions I have seen.  Everything about the production was top notch. The lighting and sound were all very professionally executed.  The pit was tight & clean.  The staging, the choreography, the interactions between the characters all effortlessly flowed together to produce an end product far greater than the sum of its parts.

Kudos to She&Her, their entire production staff and this unique cast on an excellent performance.
