3 Summers of Lincoln

Finally, a new musical that is truly innovative (albeit not completely),compelling and compelling entertaining. Any historical musical these days is going to evoke memories of Hamilton, which 3 Days can’t shake at times. But the cast is terrific, the choreography unique and the music fitting for the story. The lyrics are a weak link at times. However the opening is sensational and Lincoln’s final number is a barn burner.  Director Ashley said at this 5th preview they are still reworking dialogue and writing new numbers so I hope they make it even stronger. See it if you are in San Diego

Do we know why Brian Stokes Mitchell left the show?

Yeah losing Brian Stokes Mitchell right before rehearsal started was a bummer but I am still looking forward to seeing this in a few weeks.

A busy few months for Daniel J Watts between this and Lights Out

I like Stokes but his replacement is sensational and hit some notes that I’m not sure Stokes could hit anymore
