Student Blog: Lolita, My Love: How a Script Killed a Score
by Student Blogger: Drew Eldridge - Mar 15, 2021
In my opinion, the show was in a constant state of confusion. John Barry's score was extremely 70's jazz-funk inspired. The songs were all akin to pop songs, except for a small few. Lerner's lyrics were quite good, but with a lackluster score they became bland. The script was the biggest problem.
