Movin' Out - WOW!

I finally got around to seeing Movin' Out this week. (I don't know why it took me so long. But now I am very close to my goal of seeing everything on Bway - only Fiddler is left and then I am done....at least until the next show opens......)

Everything worked out perfectly - The TKTS booth had Movin' Out available and the seats were great (Orch Row M on the side) and John Selya and Michael Cavanagh were both performing that night. The Wednesday night performance appeared to be nearly sold out.

All I can say is WOW! I already knew that I would like Michael Cavanagh's performance of Billy Joel's songs (from the cast recording and his performance at Chef's Theater). And he definitely did not disappoint - he was amazing. I knew the dancing would be good, but I was not prepared for how overwhelmingly moving it was going to be. It was incredible. Twyla Tharp is a goddess for her fantastic choreography. John Selya is an AMAZING dancer and a hottie too! (Does anyone know if he sings too? A triple threat, for sure!) And I thought Nancy Lemenager was incredible, as well. If you like modern dance, you should definitely see this show.

I can't wait to see this on tour.

I saw it on Tour and I enjoyed it very much.

I saw it twice and both times I thought it was incredible. I actually saw the understudy for John Seyla the first time, I can't remember his name but it was Ron something and he's supposed to be on the tour, and he was fantastic.

I loved the tryout in Chicago and I'm thrilled to see it's still running. Though not a "musical", I think it is a very good show.

It sort of reminds me of what the Joffrey did ten or more years earlier - BILLBOARDS - an all dance show to music by Prince.

i'm so glad that you enjoyed movin out! I thought the dancing was beautiful and i loved that it was like a modern ballet kinda thing
