Okay, I wasn't going to post this because it is such a negative review, but my friend saw this show last week and this is what he thought:
... "The vocals were saccharine and smarmy. The women were shrill coffeehouse sopranos. The "young man Dylan" was a Bobby Sherman look alike that belabored every phrase like Robert Goulet singing Dylan. The "old man Dylan" looked like a street person on muscatel. Couldn't hit any high notes. Lay Lady Lay, was spent rolling around on a trampoline, while a bed was still on stage. (?) A lot of "air guitar" solos. The dancing was the highlight - the singing stunk. A lot of talking the verses for dramatic impact. It kept reminding me of William Shatner's dramatic interpretation of Rocket Man."
Sorry, but that is what he thought. My boyfriend and I were going to go, but now I am not so sure. I suppose we could just drive down to the Old Globe (only 15 minutes away) and try for some discounted tickets. Will definitely not be paying full price.
