REVIEW: Nashville Opera's Season-Opening 'Tosca'

From the first strains of the music, so beautifully played by members of the Nashville Symphony, under the baton of conductor Steven White (himself the artistic director of Opera Roanoke and a frequent collaborator with Nashville Opera artists) to the final, dramatic scene in which Tosca falls to her death after the execution of her lover, Tosca is a feast for both the eyes and ears. Creatively designed, utilizing the scenery from the Virginia Opera mounting of the work and sumptuous costuming from Baltimore's AT Jones & Sons, it has all the impressive trappings of grand opera. Yet John Hoomes' thoughtful direction results in something that is far more relatable-and certainly more accessible-than one might imagine. (more...)

REVIEW: Musical Theatre West's Pleasant MEET ME IN ST. LOUIS (Ends 11/15)

LONG BEACH, CA-There was once a simpler time in America, specifically at the turn of the 20th century, when hope and tradition were the norm and the promise of progress was tangible in the age of new mechanized machinery. That antiquated era of traditional family dynamics is the setting for MEET ME IN ST. LOUIS, playing through November 15 at Long Beach's Musical Theatre West. Set within the proper backdrop of the Missouri Landscape as its citizens prepare for the arrival of the 1904 World's Fair, this family-friendly musical has charm, sweetness, and abundance of 'old-fashioned-ness' that it wears proudly on its sleeve with no amount of irony or a winking acknowledgment of its current modern audience. The show is filled with appeal but lacks the kind of edge or 'wow' factor that is so much more present in material that succeeded it. That's not necessarily a bad thing, but it's not exactly it's best asset either. (more...)
