re: XANADU 1st National Tour reviews (La Jolla)
I saw it last weekend. I thought Stanley was great as well. Max von Essen was fantastic, I thought he was the standout of the show. As for Calliope and Melpomene, I wasn't the biggest fan of Joanna Glushak and Sharon Wilkins. I thought they kind of forced the comedy a little, but then again I think it is going to be extremely hard to live up to Mary Testa and Jackie Hoffman. But overall I had a great time at the show.
