BWW Reviews: Jim J Bullock Scores Different @ Sterling's
by Don Grigware - Mar 8, 2011
On Saturday March 5 comic actor Jim J. Bullock debuted a whole new cabaret act entitled Different @ Sterling's Upstairs @ Vitello's. Expecting the silly, over-the-top zaniness that has characterized Bullock's work on TV and stage over the past 30 years, the audience was blown away by his ferocity, warmth and sincerity as a serious performer. deed, Bullock set out to show a different side of himself, and he succeeded admirably. This is a fine actor with a great set of pipes who knows how to nail the substance of a song and then send it soaring. Careful not to begin with an overly dramatic tune, he grabbed the audience with the humor of Harry Warren's classic 'Keep Young and Beautiful' and then continued with a comic torch song 'Newt' which he had performed in Mark Waldrop's When Pigs Fly a few years back. If you're going to do something different, better to start with the familiar and take the dramatic turns little by little, which is the way Bullock proceeded.
It worked beautifully!
