The standout in this, though, is Amy Haynes Rapnicki as Paulette Buonufonte, the unexpected friend to Elle and down-to-earth, positive stylist. Haynes is a pro who knows her way around the stage and knows this character inside and out. She becomes this character and her natural delivery and authenticity shine through. Vocally, this woman has pipes! Her solid performance of her featured number, “Ireland” is stellar and one you won’t easily forget. You really don’t want to miss her performance in this role.

Transforming the role of Paulette Buonufonte from hyper caricature to realistic human, Amy Haynes Rapnicki delivers one of the most believably realistic performances of the production. Rapnicki finds the core of Paulette’s humanity and settles gently into that element, letting the scripted humor that is built around her character’s situation speak for itself. The subtle and human approach to the Paulette character really makes those moments— particularly during “Bend and Snap” when she achieves that “over-the-top” state of being, that much more potent. Not to mention the powerful, belting sound that Rapnicki delivers in that number. Her meet-cute chemistry with Kyle is adorable; the most impressive facet of her amazing performance is the well-maintained and subtle accent that she imbues to the character. It’s just a hint of ‘lower-class’ rather than the exaggerated, and often poorly executed, sound that gets attributed to the Paulette character. Rapnicki makes Paulette real, which sheds a whole new light on that element of the narrative.

Despite some technical hiccups and a directorial switch-up, with Amy Haynes Rapnicki stepping in just a week before opening night, Third Wall’s Producers is a solid show that features a great many talented performers, giving enthusiastic and energetic performances from start to finish.

A great many congratulations are owed to Director Amy Haynes Rapnicki for swooping into the production at the last minute and to the incredible cast and crew who have worked tirelessly to get the production off the ground.
