Reflections & Reviews
“Bravo! I have been waiting for months to see this. High points for me were Zachary Lenox's impeccable voice and character, Will Keene's performance, Alexander Salazar - an incredible voice and actor! But, by far is Kaitlyn O'Neill's performance as Salome. Wow - the dance was spectacular and her solid singing was a delight. Well done and congratulations to Scot and Robert!” - Adam S

“Congratulations on a great job with creation, composition, organization, and implementation of the show. Doing a known musical is hard enough but to create and put on a new piece of art is infinitely harder. It was extremely well done. Bravo!” - Chris Moran
“I usually don't like plays or movies of past occurrences brought into todays time, however, this tale is timeless! It is so well told, the music and singers were magnificent! The venue of the Lakewood Theater for the film's premiere, in Lake Oswego, was perfect. I loved every minute of it! The words of Rev. Robert Bryant rang true to the story in an artful and creative way. Scot Crandal, a composer, musician, singer extraordinaire, composed a masterpiece of a score using a number of different musical genres. It is not to be missed. Definitely 5 out 5.” - KB

Schneider
