| My first full Broadway show since February 2020. What an embarrassment of riches! Is Brian Darcy James giving a career-best performance? Andy Karl was bliss. It’s always nice to see actors like Annie Golden and Ann Herada. I got on Patina Miller’s vibe and enjoyed her performance. A different take on the witch than others before her. Krysta Rodriguez won me over very easily. Stephanie J Block, like Brian D’Arcy James, brought warmth, emotion and humor to the role. She really was excellent. (I’m also happy Sara Barielles can be heard on the recording). Brian and Stephanie seemed to dig deep into the emotion of the story in the performance I saw. Oh - and I forgot to mention the original draw for me was Gavin Creel who was better than the clips I’ve seen from tv. Cole Thompson and Katy Geraghty were new to me and I enjoyed them as well. I’ve seen the 2002 Broadway version, the movie and the Fiasco version. This production far exceeds those thanks to the talented cast. Thanks for those who said “just go” and not worry too much about which combo of actors I saw. Having said that, I really enjoyed this combo immensely. |
