What did our critic think of LOCOMOTION at Children's Theatre Company? This was a neat production. The set and lighting reflected a composition notebook that would have projections of housing, classroom, and fire. The furtniture also had the notebook design concept in it. The cast was a talented group of five actors. The production I saw had understudies Amir Byrd (Lonnie) and Rue Norman (Mama/Ms Edna/Ms Marcus/) and Junie Edwards who plays Lonnie was in the roll of Enrique. The costumers were bright and colorful.
