Company's opening of Philip Barry's
Holiday was like most vacations, raising
expectations which were both
unfulfilled and surpassed. And as with
the best pleasure cruises, the two
tendencies resolved themselves into
sweet but insubstantial dreams.
The problem with this worthy
production is the itinerary itself, the
play, which per se is no problem at all. It
is a smooth and harmless vehicle, a well
constructed situation comedy (before
that label acquired television's stigma).
In brief, an up-and-coming lawyer of
common stock, Johnny Case (Dallas
Greer), plans to marry into the socially
and economically venerable Seton
family for the purest of motives: simple

love for the cute Julia (Donna Davis).
Such an intrusion of a man of no estate
and rather idealistic attitudes toward
the sacred dollar (remember, this is pre
Depression 1928) is hardly encouraged
by father Edward (Richard Ussery), Big
Business incarnate.
The ensuing struggle between love for
Julia (and hence for her father's lifestyle
of securities) and love of freedom and
happiness, with the complication of
Julia's free spirit sister Linda (Maggie
Tucker) as an added temptation, is what
the balance of the play is about. No
problem: a clean comedy of dilemma,
neither an incisive comedy of manners
nor a satire on the lifestyle of high
society New York during the decade
that roared nor a nostalgic romantic
drama of the triangle.
Curiously, it is the same sense of
Barry's dramatic restraint that denies
this weekend:

the near-brilliance of the PRC cast a
chance to really pull off a honeymoon.
Only the characters who violate that
class veneer really endure
specifically, Linda and her close friends
the hilarious Potter couple, Nick and
Susan (Mark Phialas and Mina
Penland).
Linda is an immediately endearing
figure, all red lips and teeth and gestures
as opposed to her petulant sister's
staccato trot to Daddy with arms stiff
and palms parallel to the floor. Linda is
also, more importantly, dissatisfied with
the opulent living and "reverence for
riches" that everyone else embraces and
that she wants to escape.
Maggie Tucker realizes this
demanding central role with
compassionate believability, perfectly
mixing the conflicting elements of the
sardonic and . the romantic. She
magnificently manages the sudden,
melancholic close of Act II and makes
us believe that such a rebel could
tearfully waltz with a teddy bear.
Likewise, the two brief moments of
Phialas and Penland on stage are a joy
of pure comic relief. They not only have
excruciatingly funny facial expressions,
especially Penland and her double chin,
but also the only deliberate one-liners in
the show, like, "Merry Christmas from
Dan to Beersheba."
Although their sardonic spiels and
Johnny's ingenious nature are the
inevitable direction for Linda, it is
convincingly overlooked by Donna
Davis as the naive Julia and Richard
Ussery as the business-blind and bland
father Edward. Also turning in a fine
performance overshadowed by the
believability of his character was Dallas
Greer as stubborn Baltimore-born
Johnny Case, whose presence motivated
and generally advanced the action.

The polish and competence of the
balance of the cast is also to be
applauded, especially Brian Keeler as
fatalistic brother Ned, whose alcoholic
resignation is quietly upsetting amidst
the glitter.
The set design made a nominal stab at
the glitter but came up uneven. Even in
the presence of Julie Zobel's period
costumes and realistic props such as
potted plants and French telephones,
furniture in the Seton House was
simulated by an assemblage of grey
platforms. And considering the intimate
distances in the Graham Memorial
theatre-in-the-round, such unforgivable
anachronisms as a current Wall Street
Journal and the recent New York Times
Book Review with friend John Simon
on the cover should be eliminated.
Joseph Coleman's direction, besides
showing an allowable and expected
penchant for the '20s tableau, was
expedient and only rarely "cute." The
audience seemed as pleased by his
choice of intermission music as
anything, a smattering of Cole Porter
and Betty Boop.
It is only his choice of the play that 1
would finally question, . and it is , not
because there is anything wrong with
either the play or the production. They
are merely mismatched. Philip Barry's
play is fluent and admirable in its sadly
anachronistic insistence on integrity,
but it lacks a pervading vivacity. This
passion seems to be what the young and
talented PRC has to offer, judging from
the moments of high drama and electric
dialogue which sometimes shone in this
production.
If artistic director Tom Haas can
ever align his company's potential with a
worthy and powerful vehicle, then local
audiences are in for the holiday of a
lifetime.
