The Arvada Center - A Gentleman's Guide to Love and Murder
Madelyn is having the time of her life playing multiple dynamic and bold characters as Woman 1 in A Gentleman's Guide to Love and Murder at the Arvada Center. Grab your tickets while they're still here! All the details here and excerpts from rave reviews below!
"The playful nature of the cast resonates from the stage and not just among the leading players. Adding their own flair to the cast of colorful characters are ensemble members Erik Brevik, Liz Brooks, Katie Drinkard, Jason Rexx, Jeremy Rill, and Madelyn J. Smith, plus Swings Joe Barnard and Courtney Kofoed. This expert-level ensemble contributes so much to the final product. Making strong choices as an ancillary character can be a difficult task, but this ensemble makes it look easy as they each make their mark."
- Jon Bee, Broadway World
"Backing it all up is a powerful ensemble playing a variety of backup roles and bringing to life the unique, highly symmetrical choreography by Grady Soapes."
-Alex Miller, OnStage Colorado
