Reviews from someone who sees NY shows a tad more often than I do.
I have added a new blog to our blog roll, entitled thespisbustard. The bloggers get out to theatre in NY just a tad more often than I :)
Read his commentary on Light in the Piazza for an example.
Now, I know there are some major Piazza-lovers who read this, so tell me: do you think there is an "oomph song"?
Or, of course, the other argument might be that actually great musicals don't need an oomph song. That Piazza hearkens back to the golden era in style, but is completely modern in sensibility.
Either way, interesting thing to think about.
