Psycho Beach Party - and an actor to watch

I never got to see Charles Busch perform in is regular New York residencies, and had never seen his plays at all. But my very English play Feeding the Roses is having its staged reading here in North Carolina, so seeing a Busch play here for the first time makes relative sense.
It was a tight, cheerful, bright student production of Psycho Beach Party, a spoof on the beach movies of the 1960s, brazenly camp and sometimes joyous. In Busch's cross-dressing star turn as Chicklet Erich Jones, in his last year at Wake Forest blazed away with an endearing, inventive performance. Chicklet suffers multiple personality disorders ... signified by lightning shakes of the actor's body as different persona flew out of him. He's next up here in the role of Romeo ... What I'm admiring as my own play is rehearsed is the intelligence as well as control actors bring to a part. Erich Jones seems to bring that all into play. He aims to be a fulltime actor from the summer. With Oscar night just hours away, I predict a starry future for him (with a different photo to this one .. the only one I could find on surfing the Net).
