“The American Dream” - By: Krissy Berkholtz
If The Naked Gun, every Bond movie, and Mission Impossible had a baby together, it would be RIGHT PLACE, WRONG MAN: Another Grant Canyon Mystery. RIGHT PLACE, WRONG MAN follows the life of an Insurance Investigator who finds himself in a constant loop of dangerous situations that lead to tomfoolery, amazing one liners, and plot twists that’ll make you clutch your pearls. Ryan Gladstone plays the role of Grant Canyon, and takes on the incredible challenge of how to master a one man show. Every moment of comedic timing was performed perfectly and any moment of silence in the audience was quickly filled with laughter, gasps, or asking the question “what just happened?!” Grant Canyon comes with his own theme song and a splendid lighting design that accentuates all of the hilarious narrated moments in the show. The set was simplistic, but helped propel the story further by making Canyon the main focus as he combats his foes with his jaw dropping mime fight scenes in this late 70’s period piece. Every entrance into a joke was well timed and well met. There wasn’t a single dull moment in the entire show, and you could see how much Ryan enjoyed putting on this show and playing the beloved buffoon, Grant Canyon. If you’re looking for a knee-slapping level of a hilarious show, come see RIGHT PLACE, WRONG MAN: Another Grant Canyon Mystery and enjoy the ride of mischief and clownery!
