Image by Getty Images via @daylifeI attended the opening night of the Deep River Players production of "Leading Ladies" by Ken Ludwig and am still smiling. I was originally invited by Karen Shewchuk,one of the directors, and Kristen Glowa, one of the leads. I decided to attend on the spur of the moment and my husband and I are glad we did! The Deep River Players have a core group of actors who always play slapstick comedy well. Jeremy Whitlock played the leading lady/man Leo Maxine to perfection.Gordon Burton loves to play the fool- the character of Doc was a constant frolic.Phylis Heeney loves to play the "dumb blonde". Kristen Glowa played Meg to perfection. However Terry Meyers played Meg's fiance Duncan "stragiht" which must have been difficult considering how uptight the character is. The other star crossed lover; Jack/ Stephanie was played by Marko Pilic who made such a beautiful woman.He managed to upstage Jeremy Whitelock, with his bright costumes and acting ability. Ian Graham played "Butch", Doc's son who is nervous. Another scene stealer was Nancy Rose who played Florence Snider the millionaire who is on her deathbed. She ruled the roost. I am looking forward to the next production with this crew.
