Broadway Noir

It's a fast talking detective drama with upbeat musical numbers, belting ballads and a murder mystery just waiting to be solved. Broadway Noir is exactly what it sounds like and it doesn't disappoint. ... full review

This is a show that hasn’t yet decided what it wants to be. While it’s clear the company has put a great deal of effort into it and presents a polished, well-rehearsed production featuring strong vocals, some of the actors are playing it as a spoof and others are playing it straight. According to the program notes, it is meant to be noir and the most interesting and successful scenes are those that honor director Julia Lisa’s vision.

I look forward to seeing further productions of this as it grows. It's a show to look out for, congrats Noir team! ... full review
