THEATER March 3, 2005 There is no new Theater story this week. "I promise you a happy ending" February 24, 2005 Jon Ryan as Mack Sennett in Martha's Vineyard Regional High School's "Mack and Mabel." Photos by Kevin Ryan Nick HallBilsback (Fatty Arbuckle), Jon Ryan (Mack Sennett), and Lizzy Desrosiers (Mabel Normand) in the number "Look What Happened to Mabel." Paige McCarthy as Lottie in "Tap Your Troubles Away." The show may not have succeeded on the Great White Way, but at the Performing Arts Center "Mack and Mabel" was a hit. Last weekend’s high school drama department production was a singing, dancing peek at the 1920s when silent films and slapstick comedy were the bee’s knees. Under the direction of Kate Murray and musical direction of Dan Murphy, the show came alive. Musical numbers "I Won’t Send Roses" and "Time Heals Everything" were memorable. The real-life characters (Mack Sennett, Mabel Normand, and Fatty Arbuckle) didn’t live happily ever after, but the number "Happy Ending" closed the show with a tiny bit of hope.
