".The fun, frolicking and frivolous musical The Pajama Game is receiving a lively production from Greasepaint Youth Theatre. The story may be dated and slight, but Greasepaint's cast features a talented group of teens who bring a pure sense of joy to this classic 1950s musical.
The show features a swift-moving book from George Abbott and Richard Bissell...and a jazzy and rollicking score by Richard Adler and Jerry Ross to tell the story of the workplace romances and labor union woes at the Sleep-Tite Pajama Factory. ...Rebecca Steiner and Bennett Wood form a charming and winning couple as Babe and Sid. Their singing voices are full and bright and blend together beautifully....Hayden Skaggs is having a blast as the factory foreman Hines...Moorea Walker, along with Olivia Parker Swenson and Grace Carlson, make "Steam Heat" a crowd-pleasing showstopper .....Director Beth Reynolds does good work to ensure the comic moments land, and the large ensemble are constantly exhibiting different gestures and movements, giving a natural appearance of a factory in motion. ..The plot of The Pajama Game may be slight and simple but the score is stellar and the book features fun and unique characters full of both humor and heart. Greasepaint Youth Theatre's production features a large cast that more than capable in bringing this classic musical to life and delivering a fun and enjoyable experience.
