Oliver’s well-crafted combination of eye and ear candy turned out to be an irresistible challenge for Ignite Theatre, says artistic director Keith Rabin, who notes that his tight, big-voiced six-member cast includes some of “Denver’s best,” along with some creative enhancement: “Originally, it was just the singers and a projection screen, but I wanted to add my own sense of theatricality to it. Along with the original photo projections, I’ve added other things, like props and staging, to make it seem like more than a concert. Whether you like visual or performing art better, it’s really a mixture of both.”
