Beautiful: The Carole King Musical just got announced to have its SoCal Regional Premiere at La Mirada Theater November 10th through December 3rd. I never got the chance to see the show on tour. So I’m open to your opinions before I buy tickets.

If you love her music, you will love this show. I saw it on Bway and on tour and both were outstanding. Should have won best musical that year IMO.  And La Mirada always puts up really professional productions that can compete with the big theaters like Pantages and Ahmanson. I saw what I think was the best version of Les Mis on that stage. I will definitely check this out.

This show is a breath of fresh. The script is snappier than I remembered...Music-wise, the biggest thrill is hearing contrasting versions of songs you know and love...The switches between the writers’ and the pop stars’ renditions, thanks to director Marc Bruni, are quick and polished; and, even more important, the music, thanks to orchestrator/arranger Steve Sidwell, sounds dynamite...You’re bound to recognize all these songs...but please, for the sake of your fellow Carole King–loving audience members, don’t sing along. I think you should see it once in a life.
