| If you want to experience musical theatre nirvana you simply must see this cast!!!! I saw the original London cast and I thought it was not possible to top that experience. Tonight proved I was mistaken!! This cast brought this show to a whole new level for me! The quality of each voice and their interpretations of these characters was simply exquisite! Special shout out to Michael James Leslie as Judge Turpin whose voice is a force of nature especially in his solo. It is an experience you will not soon forget!! Jake Boyd as Anthony is dashing and has a soaring and sumptuous tenor voice. Eryn Lecroy is by far the most vocally thrilling Joanna I have ever heard. Stacy Bono as the beggar woman/pirelli was wonderful. John Rapson as Beadle was smarmy and vocally thrilling and John-Michael Lyles was earnest and touching as Tobias. Hugh Panaro who I have always enjoyed was a revelation both vocally and in his nuanced and wonderfully sinister take on this role. Carolee Carmello another actor I have always enjoyed is just stunning and hysterical and makes the role her own and the chemistry between her and Hugh is palpable!! I have been attending theater for over 40 years and tonight was simply magical!! 5 members of this cast will be leaving after February 25. I suggest you see them. I will be going again before they leave. Just FYI, I saw the original Broadway cast, revival at Circle in the Square, Revival with Patti and Raul and concert version with Patti and Neal. If you yearn for purity of voices with amplification do yourself a favor and go!! | |
