You may know APT core company member James Ridge. Whether you recognize him is another matter. You see, he’s nothing if not adaptable. He transforms to monster, lover, philosophical dreamer, sometimes in the space of minutes. And tonight, he is Charles Dickens.
This is Mr. Dickens’ farewell to American, and failing health be damned, tonight he is a marvel of witty, thrilling colloquy. He slips seamlessly into characters of his own creation, amplifying classics the likes of Oliver Twist and Great Expectations. In the space between, he returns to himself, his charming, off-the-cuff insights ringing with hope. And melancholy. Because this is also his goodbye to the audience he so loves. But like great literature, great goodbyes ignite the soul, even when they’re long past spoken.
