Review by GARY BOOHER

June 08, 2016 certified reviewer

What I liked

The music was best, especially the MUSIC MAN style patter song.

What I didn't like

Script wanders and sags and loses audience attention.

My overall impression

The star is Dan Sugi’s music with some clever songs by mostly talented singing performers, while the script sometimes drifts and sags. The who-dunnit was too obvious early in the first act. A new book with a tighter parody script would better feature the songs. If it is funny the lack of mystery doesn’t really matter. And it is too tame to be tagged for ages 21+.
