Review of Presentation of 10-15-05
Last evening we attended the opening performance of "Miss Saigon" and, at $50 a seat, were greatly annoyed to be confronted by a sound system that assaulted the ear drums and rendered lyrics unintelligible. Solos were less so, but excessively LOUD. Sweet Miss S. bellowed!
Unfortunatly, the above was also the case with a fairly recent production of "Peter Pan" where we also sat in the balcony. Is the Palace to blame? - the play companies?
Whichever, we plan not to attend any future offerings until we learn of your having corrected this big problem - which I and others reported to box office attendeees at intermission, in vain.
The houe was far from full - ergo more hard surfaces. Should this not translate into cranking down the volume?
This is written because I love the Palace and do not wish to watch it fade away.
Sincerely,
Marilyn Penfield
