Snapshots – It’s Been Done Before; Lucia Madness Works at AT&T Park; A Chorus Line Online Talent CompetitionBuzzin' Lee Hartgravebyline‚ Jun. 27‚ 2008SNAPSHOTS – A MUSICAL REVUE The good thing is that you will hear some great tunes from “Godspell,” “Pippin” and “Wicked.” But there is a problem fitting them into a sappy story about a marriage that is going down hill. Take the song “Popular” from “Wicked,” for instance. It’s a dynamic showstopper where it belongs and that is in the hit musical “Wicked.” Putting it in this revue made it a throw-away song. It had no spark, no excitement – it was just a pedestrian effort. Someone must have said – “Lets put that in right here, it’ll give the show a big boost.” Well – sorry, but that didn’t work. |
