Mercer! Beaucoup! a hot item
By Mark Bisset
GRAND BEND - The cast of
Mercer! Beaucoup! had their
work cut out for them Wednesday
night when /the review of Johnny
Mercer music opened at the Huron
Country Playhouse. •
There was no need to knock the
house dead -- the heat did that.
Performing in Playhouse Two,
the smaller of the two Grand Bend
stages, Peggy Mahon, Philip
IticNiven, Jack Northmore and
Sena -Lee Wood deserve top marks
for thc effort put forward despite
the adverse conditions.
Clot and humid outside, Play,
house Two was an oven inside. Pa-
trons did their best to enjoy the
song -and -dance rouuncs being per-
formed competently by the four
some, but the humidity stifled
their reactions in the first act.
There were -some empty scats in
the second act through no fault of
the actors.
_ -Playhouse administration should
seriously considcr.thc installation
of air conditioning in both sec-
tions. It is. no good to attract an
audience with quality performanc- .
cs, only to drive thein awaywith
unbearable conditions.
Compiled by Northmore, •a 'vete-
ran Canadian actor, Mercer!
Ieaucoup! flows along nicely
- with quick costume changes and
innovative renditions of the popu-
lar Mcrccr music.
The first: act was a- bit rough in.
spots -- likely due to opening
night -pressures -- but the cast
Pulled everything together in the
second, inciting the well -baked au
diene to give a standing ovation at
the end.
. The review reached its height in
thc first act whcn Wood and Ma-
hon combined for a spine -tingling
rendition of Blues in the night.
That piece alone is worth the price
of admission.
