Fanboy Nation says Once is “intimate, raw, and authentic”!
“From the moment the lights come up, it is clear this is not just another musical but an experience that settles into your bones and stays there long after the final note fades.”
“lived in, honest, and profoundly human”
“Director and choreographer James Michael McHale brings extraordinary sensitivity to the material.”
“The production feels intimate, raw, and authentic exactly as it should.”
“Music director Lex Leigh leads a cast of remarkable actor-musicians who perform the score live with breathtaking skill and emotional truth. The music never feels like a performance and always feels like a necessity.”
“This is a cast that knows how to fill the room, turning even transitional moments into something beautiful.”
“The undeniable scene stealer of the evening is Chance newcomer Leota Rhodes, who brings sharp instincts and stage magnetism to Reza and the Ex-Girlfriend, making every appearance count.”
“This production’s showstopper however, comes courtesy of another debut artist, Austin Ledger, whose performance is the most believable as the comic relief in Svec.”
“this ensemble doesn’t just support the production, they define it”
“The design elements support the storytelling beautifully.”
