Rita Carratello as "Adele"
REVIEW:

Monterey County Herald, April 6, 2006: "An elegantly performed enactment of this rarely encountered French farce by Henri Becque, who was a ground-breaking leader in bringing realism to theatrical writing, made for an intriguing and entertaining audience experience. . .  In the cameo role as Adele, the all-wise and scheming maid, Rita Carratello creates a delightful character.  She is very subtle in her eye rolling and gestures and often enhances the plot when she appears. . . . The elements of 'La Parisienne' blend into a high-quality production and it is an interesting, intellectually intriguing theatrical experience."
