NEW - A SECOND CHANCE - Talkin' Broadway's Review

Posted by:	T.B._Admin. 06:00 pm EDT 03/30/14

Matthew Murray takes a look at A Second Chance: There’s a reason most musicals that tell a love story — which, let’s face it, is most musicals — are structured around external conflicts: It’s simply easier to dramatize, and is typically far more compelling to watch, a romance develop within, around, because of, or in spite of some tangible obstacle that is preventing the universe from acknowledging the feelings of the lovers’ hearts. When a show digs too deep, and becomes too oriented around thought rather than action, it risks alienating the very audience that should bring it to life. . . .
