Bart moved to the United States when he was 4 years old. Not quite able to comprehend the move his family was making, but the excitement rubbed off from his parents as they planned for a better life that was awaiting them in America. After first living in Stamford, their hard work enabled them to make the move to an apartment in Greenwich, Conn. A nice neighborhood and great schools. Seemingly the ideal place to live. Anna and Franek could finally feel their family was beginning to reap the benefits that come with years of hard work and saving. Anna worked all day and took English classes at night so that she could assimilate, and more importantly, so that she could be completely fluent in the language that her children had quickly mastered. Franek worked all day as a carpenter.
Directors Cameron Morrison and Regina Catherine MacDonald (who also plays one of Debbie’s cheerleaders) have assembled an energetic and wildly charismatic cast, equipped them with well-orchestrated comedic bits, and fired them out of a cannon at 500 mph. The result is a madcap variety show that surprises at every turn and entertains with relentless zeal. The cast of Debbie Does Dallas embraces the sleaze with gusto. Even the least skilled actors are engaging and fun to watch, and the more experienced members of the cast are exemplary. Comedic workhorse Anthony Lounsbury is reliably hilarious as Mr. Greenfelt, the small business owner who offers Debbie $10 for a look at her breasts, and has plenty more tens in his wallet. Lounsbury’s Greenfelt can’t seem to stop giggling at his good fortune and is endearing despite the fact that he’s paying a high school student for sexual favors. Alyssa Barnes shines as Donna, displaying sophisticated comedic sensibilites, impeccable timing, and hilarious facial expressions. Co-director MacDonald belts out an astonishing solo number that she effortlessly couples with a comedy routine reminiscent of Vaudeville.
