The acting is uniformly strong; the music is played and sung with precision and verve
It’s not often a performer is so incandescent, one cannot imagine another person playing the same role.
The Belfry first presented Old Stock: A Refugee Love Story in 2019 for its SPARK Festival. The company has brought it back due to popular demand. Old Stock: A Refugee Love Story is a mix of genres. There are elements of historical drama and romantic comedy, yet the main ingredient is Weill/Brecht cabaret theatre. Dialogue is interspersed by Klezmer-flavoured songs. The actors, joined by drummer Andy Wiseman and keyboardist Jacques Arsenault, all sing and play instruments: guitar, banjo, accordion, violin, saxophone and clarinet.
Perhaps some mistake the show’s charm for sentimentality. But nostalgic glow is a deliberate choice. Moscovitch is influenced by traditional European fables and myths, often imbued with sweetness to mask bitter themes.
