Bobby Patrick - Page 11

With his new album SIMPLICITY John Minnock keeps his artistic streak moving forward with resounding success.

From his music to his voice to his performance to his dang outfit - everything about this self-titled show was the perfect example of the art of a classic story cabaret.

Singing from FUNNY GIRL - and that’s what Martha proved herself to be, throughout her show, by presenting novelty numbers THE PREGNANCY SONG and YOLANDA AT THE BOTTOM OF THE STAIRS - a funny girl...

The additional track of the cut barbershop quartet song, IT’S YOU is a real bonus and so is the extra extended cut of Jackman and Shuler Hensley’s clowning fun on THE SADDER BUT WISER GIRL FOR ME.

What do Morgan James, Shoshana Bean, Cynthia Erivo, Orfeh, Bridget Everett, Ledisi, Ann Harada and Debbie Gravitte have in common? They're All Super on the new JCSS studio recording.

Now to this new album - The present company of ITW is a fine balance of voices and talents and with its ethnically mixed casting is a revival for our new era.

This collection of 10 ballads by the likes of Kern, Mercer, Kern & Mercer, Kern & Harbach, Kern & Fields, the law firm of Hammerstein, Hart, Rodgers & Romberg, and even Turman Capote is the collection of ballads you didn’t know you needed.

Expertly directed by Joe Calarco with music direction by Vadim Feichtner, the marriage of the script with 12 songs was without any real bumps or potholes and is something that Scott should be able to take anywhere

His fans will love it because they are fans and they love him, but the rest of the world, especially Judy Garland fans, will just be uninterested in this mostly uninteresting performance.

This album, more than any we have heard in a long time, sounds (and most importantly) feels like we’re sitting down in a club, hearing a live performer doing her cabaret set.

Bobby really liked this one for more than just its gayness. It comes across as a fun, funny musical theatre hopeful and we do hope its hopes are realized, as we would totally buy that ticket.

The score of SIREN yielded much beauty, and if this is early days Bobby deems them well on the way to something truly magical...

The problem this music release has, which most likely reflects a problem the show (that we didn’t see) had, is - not enough singing from Mrs. Doubtfire herself.

HAND IN HAND is a sweet way for this musical partnership to round out what has been a whirlwind ride for their household.

This is a declaration of artistic intent and freedom breaking the bonds of the biz, the audience, and everyone to be the music-maker she was born to be.

Jones could jettison the songs and still have a solid 30 minutes of comedy and vice/versa. If he just stood there and sang, well that would make a pretty awesome evening too.

Her rendition of the multi-voiced OPENING DOORS sung solo, with the lady taking on all the parts, was a number that had this writer leaning forward with breathless anticipation and awe.

5 Out Of 5 Rainbows. Featuring a band that included Andy Abel (guitar), David Livolsi (bass), Danny Obadia (keyboard), and Joel Rosenblatt (drums).

One review was just not enough as Bobby Patrick went a bit shutter buggy throughout the show taking SKADS of pictures because the lady just kept doing things...

One of the most potent aspects of the 54 Below concert was Gibson taking chances by taking new approaches to her long-standing hits. Beginning the night with just herself performing acoustic arrangements for the first few songs, monkeying with tempos, keys, and chord progressions, her true artist's soul shown through her superb solo musicianship
