"Norman Kransna's Dear Ruth may have opened on Broadway 75 years ago, but this smartly written comedy is far from dated. The play is still incredibly fresh and funny, and the tight-knit familial relationships at the center of the comedy are realistically written. Hale Centre Theatre's well-directed production features an impeccable cast who derive naturally humorous and heartfelt performances, getting big laughs while doing so......Under Cambrian James’ confident and spirited direction, Hale Centre Theatre’s cast all demonstrate perfect coming timing to ensure that every single joke gets a laugh. Tim Paul Fiscus and Laura Soldan are perfectly cast as Harry and Edith...and deliver two exceptional performances. Sarah Davidson and Clara Bentz exhibit a natural sisterly relationship as Ruth and Miriam...Bentz is a knockout as the precocious and overly dramatic 16-year-old. ...Josh Hunt instills Seawright with an abundance of charm and a sheer sense of determination to win Ruth’s hand. As Albert Kummer, Ruth’s nerdy and jealous fiancé, Nicholas Gunnell gets big laughs with his rubbery facial expressions and body movements....a nostalgic throwback but with a talented cast and sure-footed direction, Hale Centre Theatre’s production is bright, charming, very funny and incredibly delightful and witty.
