What’s missing is that extra level that actors can only reach with a little more time to experiment, explore and exca- vate from their souls. In the end, it is a concert, beautifully gilded with genu- ine acting and inventive movement, but still a concert. Yearning for a fully fleshed-out production is bringing an unfair yardstick to the evening. So the take-away lesson is that audiences must recalibrate their expectations just as Florida Stage trained them to do when seeing first productions of new work. For instance, the audience can savor Laura Hodos’ unique “The Ladies Who Lunch” or Wayne LeGette’s warm caress of “Sorry-Grateful” or Alexandra Hale’s manic “Getting Married Today.” But when the sole out-of-state ringer here, the affable and talented Quinn VanAntwerp sang the iconic cry of the heart “Being Alive,” some of us leaned forward trying to physically will him to dig deeper into the hero’s unleashed anguish and self-knowledge. “Company” examines the emotional growth of Robert, a 35-year-old bach- elor in New York City whose most meaningful relationships are as the best friend and quite-welcome third-wheel to five dysfunctional married couples. On his birthday, we see earlier scenes of him watching and analyzing those mar- riages, contrasted with scenes depicting COURTESY PHOTO his inability to commit to serious rela- Paul Reekie (at piano), Quinn VanAntwerp, Laura Hodos, Alex Hale, Wayne LeGette and Nick Duckart during rehearsals for “Company.” tionships with three girlfriends.
