TROUPER TUESDAY: The Youth of The Visit
Not since Follies has there been such a ghostly, ethereal presence so integral to the plot and staging as there is when Young Anton and Young Claire take the stage in The Visit. And they are just so present, ironic in a way since they represent the past. That they make such an impression while vying for the audience's attention against the venerable legend Chita Rivera. Of course, I'm talking about John Riddleand Michelle Veintimilla, both of whom are making their Broadway debut with the show. You'd never know it, what with their incredible poise and polish. Call me a fan boy if you want to. I know a good thing when I see it.
Here they are in action.
