I thought my friends were exaggerating about the talent at Caesar's in this show, but I guess I'm going to have to believe the hype if even Paul Wontorek wrote about it. I think I've already made it clear what a fan of his I am, but I especially applaud him for thinking outside the box and not being so stuffy as to think the only stellar talent is ON Broadway. We all know I'm a huge fan of Orfeh. I can't understand why she's not on Broadway more often. Obviously someone else sees it my way!
He's right about musical revues, too. How long did "Fascinating Rhythm," "The Look of Love" or "One Mo' Time" run anyway? My wish would be that people would stop blaming the Orfehs and the A.C. Ciullas of the world for the MATERIAL they were *hired* to do and focus on their specific work within the shows.
The fact that David St. Louis and Andy Karl aren't in more shows is astounding to me. They're tall, good-looking, straight and triple threats. What's the problem?
I'm going to echo Mr. Wontorek and say, "Casting directors, wake up!!"
I need to get out east to see this before it's over.
