Title: Don't miss this!
Review: If you can't get to NY to see the musical, listen to the CD (produced by Phil Ramone)! And if you've seen the musical, relive it.LaChiusa's music and lyrics take you to a dark, jazz age party that comes apart as the music progresses. The music and action flow as seamlessly as theater. These are not just songs excerpted from a musical.The ensemble cast includes strong vocal performances, esp. by Toni Collette, Marc Kudisch, Eartha Kitt, and Mandy Patinkin. (Could anyone else bring the passion and vulnerability to the role of "Burrs" that Patinkin has?)Disney on Broadway is fun, but here is something to listen to over again.
Is the review positive or negative?
