In "They're Playing Our Song" now at Riverside Center for the Performing Arts, Carson Eubank and Ashlee Waldbauer command the stage with a dynamic energy that transports the audience into the heart of the comedic journey. Eubank's portrayal of Vernon Gersch, a wisecracking composer in search of a new lyricist, is solid, and his piano playing is so authentic that you'd swear he's actually at the keys (which he proved he could really do at the Stafford County Business reception held at The Riverside on Wednesday, April 24, 2024).
Meanwhile, Waldbauer's portrayal of Sonia Walsk, who experienced early songwriting success and is and is in awe of Gersch's accomplishments, exudes energy, pulling the audience right into the passenger seat of his car on the dramatic drive out to Long Island and on to her moving rendition of "I Still Believe in Love," (with which Waldbauer also wooed the crowd during an impromptu performance at the business reception).
