2016 • Curly • Oklahoma! • Tibbits Opera House

07/16/2016 by Taylor Eliason

O-K-L-A-H-O-M-A… Oklahoma!

Coldwater, MI is a little, old town with a beautiful theater with a VERY talented staff of artists and professionals. Kevin Helpin and Cheryl Van Duzen directed and music directed the charm right outta the beautiful score and script of Roger’s and Hammerstein’s Oklahoma! They allowed me, this curless Curly, a part in telling this classic, golden-age, American musical love story–An experience I won’t soon forget.Continue Reading

Reviews – Oklahoma!

This production [of Oklahoma!] had some very strong musical talent that was highlighted by the two lead characters. “Laurey” played by Catherine Skojec and “Curly” played by Taylor Eliason were outstanding. Not only are they musically gifted, but their acting skills created the necessary chemistry to tell a love story like this.”

Taylor Eliason and Catherine Skojec lead the way as Curly and Laurey… Eliason brings a joy to Curly that has you rooting for him as soon as his melodious voice sounds from the back of the theater. They have a great chemistry, which weaves tension into every tease and kiss. “People Will Say We’re in Love” is truly a sigh-able moment.”

Taylor Eliason is a warm and sympathetic Curly even when he’s attempting to convince Jud to commit suicide.”

Legally Blonde, directed by Phil Shelburne, was a coming home for me. I’m from Vegas, so it was a lot of fun to play to my friends. Playing opposite Alison Thompson every night was a real blast. She was so spunky and so fun to work off of. We became quick friends. This role was familiar because I’m a bit like Emmett. I just can’t be bothered with trends or fashion. Hand me downs will do just fine.

Side Show posed a unique struggle in a couple different ways. It was the first show in the small, old Echo Theater with this big of a cast. It was also the first show produced by the newly-formed Utah Rep headed by Johny Hebda. Many responsibilities fell to the cast, so I had the chance to actually choreograph Buddy’s tap number “One Plue One Equals Three.” No promises on it being any good but I had fun doing it!

It was wonderful getting to spend the Christmas season focusing on the reason for the season in Liken’s The First Christmas. It was even better that I got to do it with such an amazing cast. Merry Christmas everyone!

South Pacific was a challenging piece because of how heavy the material is. The costumes were gorgeous, the cast was warm and Lt. Cable’s message in “You Have to Be Carefully Taught” felt very timely.
