Supporting actress, musical role: Alison Luff

Role: Olive, Theatre Aspen's "The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee"

Representative quote: Moore: "In this astute and wickedly funny musical, adult actors comically play children who have been damaged by adults. The saddest being Olive Ostrovsky, an insecure latchkey kid whose whose mom is off living in an ashram in India and her dad's ... well, busy. When you see Olive played by an adult, you often never see the lost soul of a child on stage; rather just a seriously funked-out adult actor. And it almost never works. Theatre Aspen's Alison Luff allowed us to see, just once in a while, that slight smile, an eye twinkle to remind us that Olive is still a kid, one with a glimmer of childlike wonder remaining. It's the difference between seeing a wonderful, hopeful performance and one that is incongruously dour for this musical. Luff got it right."
