West Side Story at Signature Theatre Dec 18
2015, 03:35:13 PM
For those asking where the reviews are, the official opening for donors/VIPs was earlier this week, but the press was invited to the performance last night and the one tonight. I've heard it's great, but I am not going to see it until next week.

Sara Bareilles' album released today: What's Inside - Songs from Waitress Nov 6
2015, 02:25:50 PM
The album release concert last night at City Center was incredible. I saw the show at ART and the music is by far superior to the book. I happen to be a Sara Bareilles fan to begin with, but she even surprised me with how well she did writing for the theatre.

GIGI @ Kennedy Center Feb 4
2015, 02:12:32 PM
Kad: How about not making blanket statements about the quality of the writing of BWW reviewers? I take it you've read every review ever posted on the DC or any other page to make that judgement? Impressive.
(And no, I didn't write the "Gigi" review.)

prog metal Sweeney in DC Aug 22
2014, 09:32:07 AM
Even thought I wasn't going to see this, I decided to go on a whim last night. I lasted until intermission. Uniformly horrible singing and acting. The pretty cool orchestrations and the manner in which the band plays them are fine, but they don't work with the traditional vocal arrangements (particularly when the vocals are poorly executed). Nice idea, but overall an atrocity. They made the right call making this one not open for press reviews. I've seen college productions of Sweeney with

prog metal Sweeney in DC Aug 20
2014, 12:51:12 PM
I haven't seen it, but I did see their prog metal version of "Frankenstein" and thought best to sit this one out for my sanity. In that case, if they spent as much time as trying to be different, edgy, and creative, than ensuring the cast could act/sing (on pitch), it would have been ok.

Sweeney Todd Prog Metal Video and Coverage on DCMetroTheaterArts Aug 6
2014, 08:29:11 AM
If it's anything like their prog metal "Frankenstein" last year the vocal arrangements were a low priority as was you know, ensuring the cast could sing the show. I've rarely been impressed by anything they've done - even the straight musical theatre.

Speaking as one of those "other" critics that this reviewer is likely referring to who, like most everyone else, gave the show a mixed review, I agree, RippedMan.

A NIGHT WITH JANIS JOPLIN to Play Broadway's Lyceum Theatre this Fall Jun 26
2013, 05:25:08 PM
I saw the production at Arena Stage and was bored out of my mind. I found it formulaic even if well sung. That said I'm probably not the target audience. Those around me ate it up.

How far in advance do they tend to post a ticket offering? I don't live in NY, but can get there on a few days notice. Just wondering if it's worth it for 'out of towners.'

Tuck Everlasting Postponed? Apr 12

That's disappointing. We scheduled a vacation in Boston for August and were looking forward to seeing the pre-Broadway engagement. Now looks like our only theatre option is Wicked.

Jackson and Arianda perform Music of the Mad Men Era Jan 5
2013, 12:03:35 PM
She only sang one duet with him and given the song it was difficult to tell if she was a true, true singer, but she was good.
