Maine Grand Opera Company, The, Camden

This production was very uneven some wonderful professionals and some rank beginners. Direction was surface and uninventive. Crowd scenes were all blocked in straight lines. Many performers, including college students who had traveled from as far away as Maryland, were not paid for their work, as agreed, or their checks bounded. Similarly, this was true of production personnel adding to the lack of professional outcome. Effort was good and some few good scenes but overall, not professional in administration, direction or production. At best, mediocre community theater.
