PLAY REVIEW /// ‘Sweet Charity’ by Cary Ginell ~ Camarillo Acorn

"Briana Bauer does a terrific job as Charity. In a red dress and tousled wig she bears more than a passing resemblance to Gwen Verdon, who created the role on Broadway.
Charity is on stage for nearly the entire show, and Bauer knows her well: a soft touch who is also a little soft in the head. Bauer’s fluid, limber dancing skills and endearing facial expressions tell you all you need to know about Charity’s eager, sweetly naive personality."
