HEDWIG 30 minutes ago

Posted by:	hitbycab 10:21 pm EDT 05/07/15

I AM STILL REELING!! I am a Hedwig virgin having never seen it before so I have nothing to compare Darren Criss too except himself!! I can Gleefully report he Succeeded beyond any expectations!! HE IS A DYNAMIC FORCE OF NATURE!!! For 90 or so minutes, the energy level is beyond capacity. He sings, he emotes, he cries, he laughs, he struts, he belts, he torments, he galvanizes!!! What a performance. Nothing like I have ever seen him come close too. This is a tour de force for any performer and holy Hedwig does he deliver!! This is a friggin rock concert!! Covered in various wigs and costumes and glitter and dripping with bitterness and sarcasm, Darren ends the show stripped (nearly) of all the trappings and bares (almost) his very soul. Rebecca Naomi Jones was incredible as Hedwig's "husband"...a beautifully layered performance. The band ROCKED...naturally..but I mean really rocked!! So glad GLEE is over. How could i see Mr Criss as Blaine anymore??? What a brave actor he is. and...he touched my face as he strutted by the aisle... This is a theatrical experience. My reason for this trip. Mission Accomplished, Sugar Daddy!!! Tomorrow back to the sublime An American in Paris...
