Are you a romantic?
Believe there is someone
for everyone?
If so, then Me Too is
the new play to see.
Inspired by true events and written by Mark Goffman,
Me Too revolves around hopeless romantic Andrew, who meets the
girl of his dreams. However, the path to love and happiness proves to
be more than he bargained for. By falling into the everyday human flaw
of lying, Andrew is forced to deal with his past and learn the meaning
of true love.
Under the direction of Zeke Rettman, Me Too
is strongly supported by talented cast. Jeremy Glazer is very likeable
and does not falter in the role of Andrew. Danica Mckellar is more
than equal as Lucy, his love counterpart whose future is threatened to
be cut short. Andrew's best friend Geoff is played by Greg Pitts, who
provides the show with comedic wit and delivers excellent timing.
Heidi Schooler is sympathetic as the brave Danielle, a woman whose
bout with cancer mirrors Andrew's mother. Rounding out the cast are
Meegan Holaway as Geoff's wife Janet, and Hardia Madden Jr, as
Danielle's physician Dr. Wheelock.
Me Too confidently unfurls at its own
pace without losing audience interest. The center stage romance
between Andrew and Lucy comes off realistic and the desire for a happy
ending will on the menu for any romantic in the audience. The only
under developed subplot lies in the strained marriage storyline
between Geoff and Janet, who in this production are performed by such
strong actors the audience want to see more. But alas, this is only a
two hour play.
Me Too delivers as a love story with
top notch acting. Definitely a must see.
