42.   The rest of the cast is studded with young performers whose physical charisma and acting ability mirrors their vocal gifts.

43.   The young performers repay the compliment by looking impressively natural on stage.

44.   The young performers are talented, though their shows tend to be aimed at older passengers, who still outnumbered other age groups.
