I just saw a Sunday matinee performance of ROMANCE/ROMANCE at Virginia Musical Theatre in Virginia Beach... what a lively production... I wonder why more theaters don't produce this show more often.
Aside from the immense talent of the actors onstage, the orchestra was obviously enjoying themselves and during the exit music they rocked out... I think I detected a hint of "Kiss of the Spider Woman" in their impromptu Broadway medley.
I myself am a producer of Theatre in the Virginia Beach/Norfolk area and was fortunate enough to see this production of Romance Romance on Saturday night. To say the least, this entire show was THRILLING. Stunning direction, excellent casting, wonderful and clean 3 piece musical combo, and a great piece of theatre that should be produced more often. Kudos to Virginia Musical Theatre for taking risks, and to the entire creative team and cast of ROMANCE ROMANCE. I loved it.
Gosh, guys, don't you know that Virginia is for lovers?
I was really excited to see the title of this thread, but I'm about as far from Virginia Beach as it's possible to get while still being in the state of Virginia. It's cool to hear about it, though.
