The Last Night of Ballyhoo

Pittsburgh City Paper: "It seems so mean to slap down people as earnest as the folks in the Apple Hill Playhouse production of The Last Night of Ballyhoo. The show is a comedy-drama that falters on the timing necessary for the former, and on the passion required to fuel the latter. It's not just the wandering accents and dialogue flubs -- heck, people muff their lines in real life all the time -- but the failure to enter the characters for anything more than a superficial reading of the script."
