Our Country's Good


July 14/13 – Thrill Me: The Leopold and Loeb Story – a great way to spend 80 minutes for an afternoon or evening is Red Sandcastle Theatre's production of the off broadway hit. The two stars Oscar Moreno as Nathan and Sergio Caldron make it very worthwhile, and the direction by Larry Westlake is very taut and makes use of every nuance. The score by Stephen Dolginoff gives the men a chance to show off their splendid voices, and numbers like “Thrill Me,” “Way Too Far,” and “Keep Your Deal With Me,” work well and help to further the plot. These real people, whom many remember from the powerful film Compulsion, make for a very sinister love story. Try to catch it July 12-27th!
