The show had my attention from beginning to end. Cliff Todd embodies the spirit of Bobby Darin in every way. Not only is his voice amazing, Todd commands the stage and works the crowd as if he were in a nightclub. I learned a lot about Darin the man thanks to Todd's well written one man show. The humor and drama plus the outstanding music make this a must see. ... full review

Funny, engaging and powerful, "The Legend of Bobby Darin: An Unauthorized Biography," is a fast paced show that leaves you wanting more. Cliff Todd is absolutely captivating. Listening to him sing is like listening to a record of Bobby Darin himself. The performance is effortless, soulful and nuanced. The story is written brilliantly and the direction keeps the show moving forward like a freight train. It is stunning example of what theatre is meant to do- leave you thinking long after the show has ended. ... full review

This excellent show displays both the gifts of the actor-performer Cliff Todd and the director, Miles Chapman. In a miraculously tight and bracing hour, we experience the life, personality and talents of Bobby Darin, whose musical career straddled 1950s rock 'n roll, 1960s pop, early 1970s contemplative pop and standards from earlier decades. Todd is both a gifted vocalist and actor and the taut script grips us with its frankness and humor and never lets go. Well worth seeing!... full review

My wife Lindsay and I went to "The Legend of Bobby Darin: An Unauthorized Autobiography" on Friday night and it was really good show! Congrats to Cliff and Miles! Cliff can flat out sing and is an extremely gifted actor! And Miles did an incredible job directing this one man show! It's a great story about an extremely talented man I never knew existed. The show is under an hour and doesn't suck like 98% of L.A. theater. This show gave me some hope that there are actually a few people in L.A. who understand the proper components of doing good theater. Worth the effort to go check it out and you get to support a local theater festival. A win-win. ... full review
