42nd St. at Interlakes Theatre



Hello Theatre audiences,
If you ever danced when you were younger or if you are a dancer now I strongly suggest you make your way to Interlakes Theatre in Meredith, NH and enjoy one of Broadways best dance musicals, 42nd St! Last night as I sat awaiting the show I could hear the faint sound of tap shoes backstage. For a Tuesday evening the rather full audience was buzzing with anticipation. The footlights were glowing as the house lights came down and the audience hushed but not for long. From the very first number through the closing curtain, the company was high energy and full of smiles. Overall, the spectacular tap dancing was the highlight of the show. But there were a few other performances that really caught my attention. The first was the young man playing Billy Lawlor (Erik Joshua Clack) who was charming and charismatic. He danced with incredible ease and was vocally superb. Ellie Kahn, who played Maggie Jones, had me laughing with her witty one-liners throughout the show. The always amazing Ashley Landroche, who played Dorothy Brock, was a vocal powerhouse. Lastly, and my favorite performance of the evening, is the phenomenal Alexandra Fassler who played Peggy Sawyer. She was brilliant from the moment she stepped on the stage and delighted the audience with her fast foot work and beautiful voice. Last night’s audience loved this show and you will too! But you only have until Sunday July 13th to catch 42nd St. before it taps away!
