点评:I went to the Fireside for the first time to see Jersey Boys and wasn't sure what to expect. I've seen many shows at the Overture Center in Madison (having been a volunteer usher there for a year now), and wasn't sure how this would compare. I'm very glad that I went, and would highly recommend it to others.
The overall ambiance is wonderful, the food (& service) was excellent, and the show was absolutely fabulous (& got a well-earned standing ovation). I was a bit skeptical of the 20'x20' "theater in the round" setup going into it, but with the judicious use of a "sinking floor" (that enabled them to switch out props/settings) it had the feel of a much bigger stage, along with the warm intimacy of a relatively small theater where you were close to the actors. The cast of Jersey Boys were all outstanding, enabling the audience to effortlessly get caught up in the compelling storyline. If you've been meaning to give the Fireside a try, you should definitely try to go see Jersey Boys before it ends on February 25th if you can. You won't regret it!
翻译:我第一次去 Fireside 看泽西男孩队,不知道会发生什么。我在麦迪逊的序曲中心看过很多演出(我已经在那里当了一年的志愿者引座员),但不确定这会如何比较。我很高兴我去了,并强烈推荐给其他人。
整体氛围很棒,食物(和服务)很棒,而且表演绝对精彩(并获得了当之无愧的起立鼓掌)。我对 20'x20' 的“圆形剧场”设置有点怀疑,但明智地使用“下沉地板”(使他们能够切换道具/设置),它有一种感觉更大的舞台,以及相对较小的剧院的温暖和亲密感,在那里你可以靠近演员。 《泽西男孩》的演员阵容都很出色,让观众能够毫不费力地沉浸在引人入胜的故事情节中。如果您一直想尝试一下 Fireside,那么您绝对应该在 2 月 25 日结束之前尝试去看 Jersey Boys。你不会后悔的!
