My review of "All About Me"

For being the campy 90-Minute spectacle it was...I loved every freakin' minute.

Michael Feinstein's voice is smooth like butter and I could not get enough of him singing...my favorite song was the opening tune "Strike Up The Band".

Dame Edna was a joy! Her jokes were humorous enough to make you double over in your seat laughing and beg for mercy. Although, when she sang, her voice was very grating...(but that's part of the character).

With Dame and Michael throwing gladiolas into the audience before curtain call, it just sweetened the experience. "The Gladdy Song" was incredibly werid but enjoyable.

All in all, though it is not a huge high-quality, top-dollar, mega-musical like Wicked, Phantom, or The Lion King. It is a perfect dose of eye and ear candy...

P.S - For all of you Fangirls and Fangays, Dame and Michael are so courteous and chatty at the stage door. Take advantage of that!

Thanks for your review! I want to see this...

Does Dame Edna come out of the stage door as herself or as Barry Humphries?

Barry comes out at the end....not Dame, but willing to sign autographs, pose for pics. Very accomodating duo, he and Michael.
Hope you get to see it......closing April 4th......so fun.

Would certainly be the funniest show on Broadway.
