The Goderich Signal-Star, 1981-07-22, Page 16n .. PAGE 2A. --AGO ERICFI SIGNAL.,STAR, VTDNESDAY, JULY 22, 181 Chapter Two is second bit 13 JOANNE BUCHANAN Chapter 'No, the Neil Simon comedy which is the second production of the Huron Country.Playhouse in Grand Bend, is full at romance, great one-liners and a lot of soul-searching. Leesely base. on Simon'S , own ex- perience, xperience, the play revolves around a writer named George Schneider (Aaron Sthwarta) and an actress named Jennie Malone (Marcia Bennett) who have each reC $ly' lost a spouse—be through death and she through divorce.: The cast- is compieted.bY George's brother Leo. (A. Frank Ruffo) and Jennie's friend Faye (Barbara Wheeldon,); They are the mat-.- chmakers- who bring George and Jennie. together after fixing them'`op with many other blind date failures first. George andJennie hitt 1ffimmediately following several amusmg telephone conversations and a five-minute `look'. After a . whirlwind dating period of two weeks, they decide to get married. Problems begin on the honeymoon however. when, George can't block out his belovedfirst wife's memory. Jennie fights back though and when George decides that his worst fate with her wouk%be a life of- happiness, all ends well. Chapter Two's cast of four at the Playhouse is a strong 'one. It is interesting to note that Aaron Schwartz and' Marcia• Bennett who marry in the play, are also married in real life. Perhaps this accounts for their naturalness as a couple on stage. Bennett. -even resembles Marsha Mason, Nei Simon's wife who played the role of Jennie in the movie version of Chapter Two: "A. Frank Ruffo as Leo, George's con- cerned but • sol iewhat overbearing brother, stands out in his role, particularly in the scene where he explains to Jennie- how enniehow George reacted when his first wife died. The audience is charmed by his concern and amused • by his • playboy image. - Barbara' Wheeldon portrays concern for Jennie and is also very amusing when she speaks abott her marriage to a dull Sydney whom the audience never sees.. She decides to have an affair with Leo and their rendezvousprovides one. of .the most Comical scenes in the play. Besides the fine acting which carefully mixes comedy with the path' of death and divorce, Chapter "Two's success at the Playhouse is a credit to skillful direction by Aileen Taylor -Smith and the double -set design of back -to -bads living rooms by Mark Cole with lighting by Chris Popowich. Chapter Two will run at the. Playhouse until July 25. Arsenic and Old Lace opens July28. lind folk to dispel... *from page lA says.
