In the last few weeks I’ve been to see two fabulous shows, both produced, in part, by Randy Klein, son of LI performers Cooky and Lenny Klein. Gentleman’s Guide…, as you know, won the TONY Award this year for Best Musical and speaks for itself.\u00a0 If you haven’t seen it, do.\u00a0 It’s a phenomenal show that combines elements of Gilbert & Sullivan,\u00a0The Mystery of Irma Vep\u00a0and the old Alec Guiness film,\u00a0Kind Hearts and Coronets.\u00a0 I went with some girlfriends and can’t wait to see it again with John
\n. Disenchanted\u00a0opens tonight, Dec 4.\u00a0 We saw a sold-out preview performance the day after Thanksgiving. The premise is the Disney princesses grown up and pissed off.\u00a0 The happily ever after thing just didn’t happen.\u00a0 This show follows in the tradition of other great female revues like\u00a0Nunsense\u00a0and\u00a0Menopause the Musical.\u00a0 The talent on stage is incredible and every detail in the production (lights, sets, props and especially costumes) is top-notch.\u00a0 All your favorites are included: Snow White, Sleeping Beauty, Cinderella, Mulan, Ariel, and many more.\u00a0 I can highly recommend this production without hesitation.\u00a0 It’s playing off-off B’way at St. Clement’s Theatre\u00a0(I performed there 45 years ago – good heavens!)\u00a0for a limited engagement at pre-Broadway prices and is looking for a larger venue for a longer run.\u00a0 See it now if you can – it’s a great idea for the holidays!\u00a0?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
