In my occasional, yet eternal quest to support musical theatre in Vancouver, I’m sending the word out about a really wonderful show I was privileged to see last night: “The World Goes ‘Round”, a revue of Kander and Ebb songs. If the name of that Broadway duo doesn’t ring a bell, well, they’re the team behind “Cabaret”, “Chicago”, and much much more. Below you’ll find my in-depth review.
The show includes one song from Chicago, “Mister Cellophane”, and seeing it performed reminded me of my own wacky, high-kicking version in The Broadway Chorus a few years back. It was on YouTube, but a little hard to find. I’ve remedied that, and improved the image quality as best I could. Do have a look!
Finally, on the Broadway theme, a friend of mine with whom I’ve performed in several musicals is putting on a Musical Theatre Masterclass with local Broadway performer Diana Kaarina. It’s a great way to prepare for the upcoming audition season!
I just got back from opening night of a wonderful musical revue, “The World Goes ‘Round”. I recommend it for two groups of people: those that love musicals, and everyone else! Even if you wouldn’t normally think of going to a musical, give it a try. The singing, dancing, and overall presentation of these songs are outstanding. It’s a wonderfully entertaining evening.
