This new production comes to Los Angeles direct from a hit run at Harlem's legendary Apollo Theater. Learn More
Great price, good seats, super show. Mr. Doolittle stole the show for me but they all did a good job. Freddie jerked about the stage and I had wished he made love to the lampost more but had an excellent voice. All the actors were enjoyably remenicent of the original cast genius. I love the classics when they are well done. Staging and costumes were seemless and the dialogue moved along well. No blackouts, yeah!
A very tight production. With scene changes incorporated into the action, the production flowed seamlessly. While not on the same level of Grand Opera (of course) the music, instrumental and lyric, was quite well performed. Choreography was quite innovative in some places, and appropriate for the story throughout.
I had forgotten how very many good songs came from this musical. A true classic - on the shuttle from the theatre, some of us sang (a bit) and discussed the psychology behind the story. It all brought back memories of high school productions.
Only complaint - balcony seats are too far from the action to fully appreciate the finer nuances of the production, but that's my own fault for being cheap. Buy good seats, and get all the enjoyment this production has to offer.
Great evening with very strong performances. Wonderful voice and acting from the young Lisa O'Hare (Eliza) Eliza's father had some show stopping scenes and the costumes for the equestrian races...fabulous. True to the movie, a great evening for the whole family.
