"The lively farce Boeing Boeing depends on precise timing, energetic performances, and plenty of slamming doors, and the production at Ghostlight Theatre proves to be a solid and entertaining take on this classic comedy. The cast clearly relishes the ridiculous situations and escalating chaos of the script, which keeps the audience engaged. While some performances on opening night were not yet up to the high level of others and some moments that rely on sharp precision were still settling into place, the overall result is an engaging production that captures the playful spirit of this well-loved farce...As Robert, Bernard's friend who quickly becomes entangled in the farce, Hector Coris delivers the most delightfully zany performance of the evening. His wide-eyed reactions and mounting panic provide many of the show's biggest laughs, and he embraces the physical comedy with gusto. Van Rockwell offers a confident and charismatic portrayal of Bernard, the central schemer whose romantic juggling act drives the plot, anchoring the story while navigating the increasingly absurd situations with charm. He makes a good straight man foil to Coris' chaotic Robert." - Gil Benbrook, TalkinBroadway.com (click here to read the complete review)
