Gabe Bast

Theatre 161- Spitfire grill

Ljubisa Matic

May 2, 2019

Percy Talbot has just been released from a five year

prison sentence for manslaughter. She is trying to find a

place for a fresh start, and based on a page from an old

travel book, travels to the small town of Gilead, Wisconsin.

The spitfire grill is based on an original film in 1996. It was

directed and written by lee David Zlotof. The film was not

reviewed very high and people were left with a mixed bag

of emotions about it. The musical was reviewed much

better as people enjoyed the musical much more, I had a

family member attend it in 2017 and she had this to say

about it, “the spitfire grill musical brought me to edge of

my seat” .

North coast repertory theatre had showing in may of

2017 that had people of very fond of the musical. Jean

lowerison had excellent things to say, “ I thought “The

Spitfire Grill” would be just another yee-haw

country/western musicale about life in a small town. I’m


happy to report that it’s a lot more than that” . Jeff B. Moss

had a terrific cast of singer that really helped capture the

audiences heart. The Musical was extended to July so that

shows how popular it was in the southern California area.

They received reviews how they put their own twist on it

and was very well received.

The musical was very positively reviewed by The

Anchorage Daily news. Described in the review was the set was

very well set up and provided a great space to perform. The

actors were highly praised for their raw ability to sing the songs

like they should have. Spitfire grill was full of great emotion but

did not cross the line of being over [Link] review’s also

stated that they had good fresh twist on it as it was an older play

but was rejuvenated. This production was put on at Cyrano’s

theatre in Anchorage, Alaska in the month of July in 2018.
