Moonlight and Magnolias Reviews

Centerstage - Highly Recommended

"... Frankly, my dear, you should give a damn about Fox Valley Repertory. Their latest show makes a trip to St. Charles well worth the drive. This hilarious, fast-paced comedy kicks off their 2nd season with snappy, sassy slapstick that will appeal to everyone. Baby boomers will enjoy its subject matter (the behind-the-scene antics fueling the creation of “Gone With the Wind”), while younger audiences will revel in its pitch-perfect performances and sparkling artistry."

Chicago Stage and Screen - Highly Recommended

"... Dennis Grimes and Weston Blakesley are outstanding as the reluctant conspirators. And even Delia Baseman, who rounds out the four-person cast, makes the most out of her cameo as Selznik's much put upon secretary Poppenghul. Jack Magaw's handsome office setting, complete with window cards of Selznik's own movie glories, and Chris Kriz's atmospheric sound design are more than mere icing on the cake. They are among the many delightful details that add to a rich and riveting evening in the theatre. Don't miss the opportunity to enjoy one of the finest shows you will likely see all year. "Moonlight and Magnolias" is a must-see masterpiece!"
