BWW Reviews: Get Up Close and Personal with DOLLY at Spotlighters Theatre
There's nothing more personal than theater in the round, especially when it's on such an intimate scale as that at Spotlighters Theatre where there's a maximum of three rows of seating on each side. And it seems a fitting way to get to know Dolly Gallagher Levi, star of Hello, Dolly!, since her greatest joy is getting to know you-in the hopes of making a little money off of what she's figured out.
BWW Reviews: GREAT AMERICAN TRAILER PARK MUSICAL Is A Hoot at Spotlighters
The Spotlighters' performance space is an interesting and often frustrating challenge - a theater-in-the-round (or really in the square) with four columns supporting the ceiling and interfering with sight-lines. But it is actually an excellent space for a chamber musical. The singers can be extremely close to each other, playing off each other rather than each other's amplified voices, as well as right on top of the audience, and when, as here, they're on pitch and on fire, even the most trivial musical fluff can get pretty intense.
