The level of acting was overall very high. However, Director Daniela Ryan recognized that the script is awfully talky, especially in the first act, so during the breaks between scenes, she had the steward and his two helpers the bead sellers re-dressed in tuxes scurry about the stage in a flickering strobe, emulating silent film comics as they moved their own and each other's props around the set.

In her effort to make everyone on the stage dislikeable enough to be a potential murderer, we're left with no one to cheer for.
Still, the two hours spent on the Nile are a nice little respite, and I think DTW has done an excellent and very stylish job in their presentation. Palm Springs. Broadway Shows Broadway Musicals. Jersey Boys Save on Tix!
