Review: ROCK OF AGES at Seacoast Repertory Theatre

Written by Virginia Gay and directed by Clare Watson this is a new gender-flipped retelling of Cyrano de Bergerac. Things are done a little bit differently in this version and we have Cyrano (Virginia Gay) meeting Roxanne (Jessica Whitehirst) for the first time now rather than having known her for a long time. They are also not related as they are in most iterations. Cyrano is charming but she's overly conscious of her appearance. Mentioning it before anyone else ever gets the chance to pass comment, Cyrano ridicules herself with gags about her unusually large nose.

Actor Buddy Ebsen, who died at age 95 in 2003, found fame by starring in two of the most popular classic television shows in history: The Beverly Hillbillies (CBS, 1962 to 1971) and Barnaby Jones (CBS, 1973 to 1980). On the Hillbillies, he played former Tennessee country mountain-folk-turned-wealthy Beverly Hills resident Jed Clampett. On Barnaby Jones, he was one of TV's most senior, slyest, health-conscious detectives. Ebsen, however, almost became even more famous for a certain big-screen classic film in which he ultimately did not appear.
