Characters had key props, but none had a symbolic meaning. Robbie normally had his guitar, and
the wacky hair of the Vegas impersonators was a true indicator of how wacky those characters
were.
Regarding the directors interpretation, was there a ruling idea or theme that comes out of
the production? What do you think the director was trying to say through the production?
What was your overall response to it? Were there any significant moments or scenes? Did
you recognize any influences from areas of theater that you have already studied? How
would you describe what the production was trying to do? What alternative choices could
the director could have made? This could include elements of sound and lighting.
I think the director took the script and did everything that most directors do when the show has
been put on in the past. There was nothing monumental that was different than any other
production of the Wedding Singer. That being said, it was still very good. I loved the love story
between the two characters, and there were a lot of times I chuckled in the audience. My mother
even laughed once at a joke so loudly that all my friends turned to me with quizzical looks. The
way it made fun of the 80s while still glorifying it reminded me of Hairspray. I loved the
dumpster scene and pretty much any love song between the two protagonists. The director did a
very good job. Something he/she could have done differently is to have had a red or green tinge
on stage during the money song, and maybe one or two sound effects outside the songs
themselves.
Focus on two characters and explore HOW they are exploring their characters. Address
what the actor was doing and whether it was effective for the audience.
The actor that played Robbie at first seemed very young to me. I realized later on that it
highlighted how much of a child Robbie still was on the inside. His voice had a laidback tone to
it, while still being dreamy when he talked about love. His face almost contorted when he was
upset, and I was surprised that he could still sing while pretending to cry. At first I was unsure
about Robbies character, but by the end after watching his journey I was rooting for him to get
the girl.
I knew that actor that played Julia personally, and because of that I think I was more critical of
her, unnecessarily so. I remember throughout the production I wanted to scream at her to cheat
out, because I could almost never see her face. I know I may not be one to talk about that, I
always struggle with cheating out, but I cant really comment on her facial expressions because I
hardly ever saw them. When I did see them they were believable and portrayed how innocent
Julia could be at times about love.
