Five Seconds to AIR REVIEW

You HAVE TO SEE “FIVE SECONDS TO AIR”
By: Kenneth Maxwell

So what do you get when you take 6 talented radio actors in the 1940’s, whose fictional murder mystery ends with a realistic murder? Five seconds to air. So in the original stage play “Five Seconds to Air,” written and directed by Evan Storey and Laura Dickinson audiences are transitioned to ABN’s nighttime broadcast where art imitates life. In this murder mystery audiences get a full ride of entertainment Storey and Dickinson brilliant script comes to life and you cannot keep from laughing through all of the unexpected moments that the cast throws at you. Christina Cataldo comedic timing is perfect, she brings to the stage a modern day Lucille Ball (I Love Lucy), as for Joel Malazita he masters the art of actually living a character and allowing the audiences to see a realistic portrayal and really does bring forth a great level of talent. Halperin, Marino, Pettway, Jordan, and Perry are all a great team of actors who really captures their audiences for the full 90 minutes and each makes you wonder who committed the crime and who may end up dead next. “Five Seconds to Air” really makes you think that you might be watching the radio stage adaptation of “Clue”, however its original content and brilliant cast makes you not want to wait another five seconds to see the second act (you just want to dive right in), this comedy is truly a great opportunity to get out and enjoy a hot new Off Broadway show this up coming weekend.

Additional written material by Jess Oppenheimer, Madelyn Pugh, Bob Carroll Jr, and Charlotte M. Russell. Produced by Nathan “Seven” Scott, Dwight Allen O’Neal, and Evan Storey.
