Review title: An Evil Little Cacophony that Turned Out Brilliantly
Product review: Certainly not for every taste (in the same way that Rent can be a little off-putting for the blue hairs) but taken on its own merits, this is spectacular theatre. Sondheim has written better songs, but nothing on the sheer scale and operatic complexity as this dark, twisted tale. Cariou and Lansbury are wonderful, the supporting cast and chorus are very strong and the orchestra is simply outstanding. Pay close attention to Pretty Women and Not While I'm Around -- they're two of Sondheim's best! Overall, one of my favorite musicals and a superior original cast recording.
