An evening of sheer musical hilarity and pure naughty fun!
Andrew Byrne has penned a new and fresh (and I'd say better) version of a prior musical parody,
Forbidden Broadway. Unlike Mr. Alessandrini's prior show which mocks Broadway shows directly - Mr. Byrne's little gem pokes fun at the ups and downs and general lifestyle of a Broadway stage actor/dancer using the same musical parody technique. Sure it's naughty, but I wouldn't call it a Burlesque show at all. You might turn a few shades of light pink during any number of the riotously entertaining numbers but that's part of what makes the show great.
The four songsters who alternatively run the stage,
Lisa Rothauser,
Robby Sharpe (um, adorable beyond belief),
Marya Grandy and
Bart Shatto, hit all the highs and lows (notes and otherwise) that an actor with a Broadway career just might encounter with charisma, energy and conviction. (Did I mention that Robby is uber-adorable?).
I promise you will leave with a great big smile on your face. Don't miss these creative animals at the Rockwood Music Hall or wherever they land next.
