I agree that it was very hard to understand much of the dialogue and lyrics - Sills especially - but everyone. The sound designer, Kai Harada, is one of our best. FUN HOME and BANDS VISIT were his designs - so was HEAD OVER HEELS with the hideous blasting pre show music.
Encores sound design usually falls to Scott Lehrer. There is no one working that can make these acoustic era shows sound acoustic - and crystal clear - like Scott can. He gets the sound, the aesthetic of these shows. Scott is doing PLAZA SUITE so was probably tied up out of town. Pity.
MACK AND MABEL, like CANDIDE and MERRILY WE ROLL ALONG remains a great score in search of a book. |
