My overall impression

Incredible play from the musical masterminds at The Sam and Tony Show. There were dynamic performances from the entire cast, but especially fantastic were Melinda Ehrlich as the evil Valentina and Tony Gonzalez as Lorenzo. Keep an eye too on Sam Johnides at the piano — no music sheets (the entire score is all in his head). Amazing. The songs were epic, haunting, and still catchy. This entire production truly feels as if it’s on its way to Broadway and beyond. They need a bigger venue! Full-disclosure: I happen to be one of the producers, but, hey, I wouldn’t have become involved to begin with if I wasn’t this passionate about the product. Tremendous work all around.
