BWW Reviews: YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN at the HippdromeJanuary 18, 2010The historic Hippodrome Theatre began its life as a vaudeville house. Would you like to see a musical filled with 'shtick', lovely long-legged blonde women dancers, clever lighting with realistic thunder and lightning, and occasional laughs then The New Mel Brooks Musical Young Frankenstein (that's the complete title) is just for you.
BWW REVIEWS: 'And I Am Telling You...' See the New and Improved DREAMGIRLSDecember 22, 2009Like me you may have seen the original Broadway cast of Dreamgirls which opened in 1981 that won 6 Tony Awards and ran for four years. You also may have seen the star-studded 2006 film. So, the question remains, 'Should I or shouldn't I see the revival of this landmark musical directed by Robert Longbottom?' The answer is an unqualified yes.
Visit the Musical 'The Musical of Musicals (The Musical)'September 27, 2009The first song I thought of after seeing this thoroughly enjoyable evening of theater was the following: 'Wonder of Wonders, Musical of Musicals'. With apologies to Fiddler on the Roof, theater aficionados must visit the little theater that could in Alexandria, VA and play the game Name that Show? as you listen to new lyrics applied to some of the wondrous melodies you've ever heard.
