elizalavelleNomi and I went to go see the U of T production of Reefer Madness last night and it was SO fun! The show on stage is terrific, and even has some extra numbers which weren't in the movie so that was bonus. The casting was great. Really really great. Nomi was reading over everyone's bio's and for everyone but one cast member this was their first major show, which made me that much more impressed. The only thing that I missed from the cast was them connecting with the audience. For the most part they were all doing that trick of looking about 1 foot over the heads of your audience which works for the most part but it's good to break that up with actually looking at people.
And I actually found that the girl playing Mary Sunshine vocally held up better than Kristin Bell did overall. I liked her "Lonely Pew" better than the movie version. However I far prefer the movie version of Mary Sunshine. I think in the end it's a tie between the movie and seeing the show live.
It's still playing until Sept. 30th so if you can get yourself in to town in time I say go for it! The show is well worth seeing :)
