"Norman Krasna's 1947 Broadway play John Loves Mary is a charming comedy that focuses on the romance between an American GI who has just returned from fighting overseas and the girl he left behind, and the comical obstacles that get in the way of their happiness. Hale Centre Theatre's production features a talented cast and sure-footed direction and results in a warm and winning show...David Michael Paul and Kim Stephenson Smith make a winning twosome as John and Mary. Once the wedding date is rushed, Paul instills John with several nervous traits as his plans start to unravel, while Smith's Mary becomes appropriately confused and wary of John's true intentions due to his continual attempts to delay their nuptials. Matthew R. Harris is suitably frazzled as Fred, and he and Paul play off each other very well, adding to the comic hijinks...John Loves Mary may have a thin premise, but this Hale Centre Theatre production is sweet, fun, fast paced, and full of charm." -Gil Benbrook, Talkin' Broadway (click here to read the complete review)
