Kudos to Prenzie Player Jeremy Mahr

(from an article in the River Cities Reader by Mike Schulz)

Jeremy Mahr and Chris White. The Prenzie Players, en masse, are essential to local theatre; Mahr earns particular mention here not only for his deeply affecting Lysander in A Midsummer Night's Dream and his stunningly focused Henry in King Richard the Second, but for being equally committed to (and equally human in) the slapstick buffoonery of Richmond Hill's Perfect Wedding. Meanwhile, White - Mahr's Wedding co-star - matched him laugh for laugh, was splendid in Richmond Hill's Cat on a Hot Tin Roof, and tore into his role as McMurphy in Playcrafters' One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest, which he enacted less than two weeks after a major traffic accident, hospitalization, and surgery; White performed with his arm in a sling, and within five minutes, made you forget all about it. Never mind essential; this year, White was damned near inspirational.
