I had the great pleasure of seeing the stage production of Beverly Cleary's 'Ramona Quimby' at the Children's Theater Company (CTC) in Minneapolis Minnesota. I've probably seen 10-12 plays there and every time I am blown away by the quality of the acting...especially how good the kids are. All the kids (and adults!) in this production were great, but I thought 5th grader Scarlett Thompson was exceptional as Ramona. She projected excitement well and she projected her voice even better. Maeve Coleen Moynihan as Ramona's big sister Beezus and Katie Law-Gotich as Susan also do particularly great job too. I really enjoyed the acting, the play, and the fantastic set design. My Kindergarten daughter, 3rd grade son and his friend also really liked it a lot (and my daughter is notorious for disliking theaters of any kind, staged or movie). We have been to many of the productions with friends and family from out of town, some of whom are professional actors and they are all amazed at the quality of the CTC facilities, production values and actors. We are so lucky to have such a wonderful venue in the Twin Cities with such great professionals and wonderful talent!
If you have kids, get some tickets and go (by the end of the week though...it only runs until June 7th!)
