We don’t usually get to High School shows, but made an exception for LOSERVILLE at Okemos High, Chad DeKatch’s final directing project before moving to become Creative Arts Director at Lift Church in Venice, Florida —and also to see DJ Shafer (that sweet little boy not that long ago in Caroline or Change and one of the stars of LCC’s recent “Steppin’ to the Bad Side”) change to HIS “bad side” to believably play the egotistical bully in Loserville. Fellow RWT Frankensteinian Mikaela Gould played Leia the “mean girl” with aplomb. Meghan Corbett was the missing link between girlfriend and computer geek, with some beautiful singing.
Loserville is a great show for high school because everyone is the right age, this one included a large chorus of singing and dancing (Karyn Perry, choreography) their way through geeky and energetic numbers. The SET was also choreographed with blinking, changing bands of light that were very effective. Mark Stice led a nice little pit band behind the light show. And the nods to Star Trek and Star Wars are fun.
Loserville continues next weekend, 7:30 pm Friday and Saturday, and 2:30 pm Sunday
Okemos High School Theater, 2800 Jolly Rd, Okemos, MI 48864
