Our Song
By Keith Waterhouse
Directed by Robert Waterhouse

With Christian Brandjes, Jeffrey Coyle, Guy De Federicis,

Brennan.
A married man falls obsessively,
disastrously in love with
an
effervescent younger woman in this
celebrated West

hit. Directed
for the New Phoenix Theatre by the
playwright’s
son, OUR SONG is
a dramatic love
letter resounding
with
wit and wisdom.

As always, the show must go on and the always resourceful New Phoenix Theatre made the following cast change following an injury to cast member Kelly Meg Brennan: Bethany Sparacio played Angie, and Kelly Meg Brennan played Belle.
CRITICS SING:
" Sparacio is very talented, very insightful and lends humor to
even serious scenes with bedeviling effect. [She and Brennan]
are two actresses worth knowing and Our Song is a chance

OTHER CRITICS SING OUR SONG:

presence seems touchable."
