It was a tremendously ambitious undertaking — four actors at tempting to portray 60 characters in two hours. After only a mouth to create and rehearse, they pulled it off with enough courage and enthusiasm to bring the audience to its feet. What the play lacked in polish, it made up for in determination. Opening nights can be terrifying, but after a tremulous start the cast soon lost its nervous jitters with some help from a responsive audience. Brian McPherson, Liz Harnden, Pat Martine and Sybilla Irwin all performed with the competence and maturity that distinguishes the experienced actor from the novice. They worked well together, with none of the back-stabbing rivalry that can sometimes ruin a produc tion. The camaraderie among the actors combined with the small size of the Forum created an atmosphere of intimacy that pulled the show through a few of its weaker moments. The sheer size of the list of characters made it almost impossible to match the names with the actor s portrayal. At times it was a little difficult to get a clear picture of the personality being presented or to distinguish it from that of some of the other characters. Each actor proved his or her merit with several outstanding moments of sensitive character portrayal, showing an understanding of human emotion and its effects on the community of Spoon River through the years. Sybilla Irwin s portrayal of a young Chinese girl killed by those who would not accept her refusal to follow Jesus instead of Confucius was surprisingly funny, in spite of the girl’s violent demise. Pat Martine contributed one of the best dialects of the evening as a touchingly convincing old black fisherman. He performed a speech in sign language that was beautiful, even if it was a little unexpected. Some of the most humorous moments of the evening were provided by Brian McPherson’s folk songs about the trials and tribu lations of courtship and marriage. McPherson’s dynamic voice filled the room with outrageous oratory during his hearty portrayal of a blustering legislator. Liz Harnden proved her versatility and competence by portraying a wide range of women — from a young child to a Russian temptress to an old woman. It was apparent from the results that a lot of time, skill and effort went into the sets and lighting of the show. The prior experience of McPherson and co-producer/co-director Bruce Monroe, who have worked on the crews of numerous shows, made the play very good technically. The play was refreshing in that it was something totally different than the usual campus drama productions. It’s worth the trip just for the change of pace.
