WaterTower Theatre's "Urinetown," which recently dominated the Leon Rabin Awards, deserved its accolades — it was
the best show of 2006.
Continued from Page 46
trait of female politics — social and sexual
— boasted a large, strong cast given deli-
ciously bitchy dialogue, especially Marisa
Diotalevi and Morgana Shaw in two of the
most enjoyably droll performances of the
year.
6. Pageant (Uptown Players). This one
could have been called "The Sort-Of
Women," in which men dressed in drag —
but playing "natural-born females" — com-
pete in a beauty contest. Audience participa-
tion was part of the fun, but the cast (Doug
Miller, John Garcia, Cameron McElyea,
William Blake, Chris Robinson, Michael
Moore and Jim Lindsay) and director (Coy
Covington) sold the camp brilliantly.
5. Vieux Carre (Theatre Three). Another
Tennessee Williams play — he was every-
where this year — and one that almost stands
as the apotheosis of all the qualities we asso-
ciate with him: baroque humor, gruesome
imagery, intense emotions. This rarely per-
formed late work was creepy, funny and end-
lessly entertaining.
4. The Rocky Horror (Puppet) Show
(Quad C). This adaptation of the outrageous
rock musical about outer space transsexuals
got a jolt in the arm with the addition of a
tremendous cast of full-sized puppets and a
droll, scathing use of George W. Bush imper-
sonator as The Criminologist. It's another
element of proof that Collin County
Community College may have the best the-
ater program in the country.
3. Valhalla (Uptown Players), Paul
Rudnick's plays tend to work in broad
strokes, but often fall flat when they aim for
emotional resonance. Whether "Valhalla" is
better than most of Rudnick's other plays or
simply benefited from an adept performance
by B.J. Cleveland, this time-traveling queer
historical romance had jokes aplenty, lovely
drama and even nudity. What's not to like?
2. Every Trick in the Book (Classical
Acting Company). Farce either works well
or not at all. And "not at all" is frequently
what audiences have to suffer through. But
Regan Adair nimbly directed a terrific slate
of actors in one of the most gorgeously
appointed shows of the year (the costumes
routinely got ovations) — and also the funni-
est bedroom comedy in a long while.
L Urinetown (WaterTower Theatre).
Rolicking fun, politically incorrect (or is it?)
and teeming with more hummable songs
than a \at King Cole Christmas album,
"Urinetown" is still an unlikely formula for a
hit musical. But WaterTower *s production,
loosed by director James Paul Lemons with
furious comedic energy, was the succes de
scandale of the season.
ACTOR OF THE YEAR
IrS some incredibly Important ways, the mark of a
terrific actor isn't one who succeeds in great plays
but who overcomes mediocre ones. Queen Elizabeth
I, Truman Capote and Vito Corleone are just some of
the characters that have brought acclaim to their
portrayers, even when the productions they have
appeared in have varied wildly in quality.
Dallas has many excellent actors. Most of the cast
members in "Pageant," "The Women" and
"Urinetown" brought their skills strongly to the fore
in memorable ensembles; Ted Wold jolted life into a
disappointing "Take Me Out;" B.J. Cleveland had
chillingly good moments in "Valhalla," and his co-
star John de los Santos did his best work ever; Chad
Peterson made "Thrill Me" close to thrilling; Tina
Parker was hissingly effective in "No Exit;" and
Marco Rodriguez was tops in "Cloud Tectonics" and
"A Midsummer Night's Dream."
But no one delivered the goods like Nye Cooper.
This time last year, he was still milking laughs out of
his fifth season with "The Santaland Diaries," but
went on to two very different plays — the comedy-
drama "Dim All the Lights" and the farce "Rumors"
(pictured, with Ginger Goldman) — where his per-
formances soared above all else. Especially in
"Dim," which just concluded its run at the Bath
House Cultural Center, Cooper displayed a ravaging
rawness that made it impossible to look away.
Anyone who can go from comedic monologue to
slapstick to aching schizophrenia in one season,
always elevating the productions he appears In,
deserves special recognition as the top actor of
2006.
