BWW Reviews: Merced Offers New Version of THE THREE MUSKETEERS
by Harmony Wheeler - Apr 6, 2014

And Merced's "Musketeers" feels very much so like a community troupe putting together a show. It comes with those low-budget kickers and generally read-through-type acting, but it also includes clear standouts in its cast, a near-perfect script and fantastic scenic design by Corey Strauss.
