What’s not to like about tall, tousled and handsome Benjamin Quirk in “Crush”? The gay teenager freely admits his grown man crush on Timothee Chalamet – proof that boys of no upper body strength can be attractive too. While Chalamet is unattainable, Quirk finds his own personal Valentine in Paris. His highly original tale is delivered word perfect for 45 minutes, coupled with athletic and balletic moves and a skilful dance number. A standing ovation from the first-night audience.
