"The Mad Ones" at Towle Theater


by Kate Kerrigan & Bree Lowdermilk
Presented by arrangement with Concord Theatricals


"If I don't pick it up the phone, it's sort of like it never happened." Just like if you do not go to this show, tonight, it did not happen. We need to chose to know and remember this musical.

This was a wonderful change of pace both in stage and musical. I'd say more about the stage but that would give too much away. The musical hit home too in a sad but happy emotion, one that you walk away inspired.

Life is short, especially as you get older and realize that you did not take advantage of earlier opportunities to explore You. Reminds me of the old television show Route 66. Take some time to explore, understand, to realize what  you want in life.

As I come closer to my heart surgery next week I cannot help but reflect on all this. Lots of good moments, some lost moment. You have to be sure of yourself. A lot of self confidence. Perhaps a supporting nudge from your best friend. All memories now, yet it is blank ahead of you, so search out many more memories.

The cast was funny, relatable. Everyone needs a Kelly in their life. Thank you for the lighting and sound, the music, the directing. Like my experience of the first musical I saw at the Towle, 'Ordinary Days', I will remember this musical as well.
