They had me feeling ecstatic...especially watching the characters jumping for joy in certain scenes! There's nothing better than seeing someone's dream coming true...through the eyes of a character!...

A light show - love the music of the Clash so I was drawn in. It feels really campy and many of the actors seem to be newbies....

This was indeed a pretty good show -- as far as I could tell. Decently compact -- if a bit trite -- plot, and well-cast with a possible glaring exception, this is mostly a triumph of finding a fit for songs in an unrelated story, a la "American Idiot: The Musical."
However, there were severe sound issues during the performance I saw. Some performers could hardly be heard and others (the lead, in particular) seemed to be over-amplified.
It was a shame, because the left third of the Hudson audience kept looking at each other acknowledging the problem. Sound appeared to be better on the right.

The London Calling creative team appears to be attempting to craft an American Idiot style show -- i.e., a narrative musical fueled by gritty, iconic punk rock. For me, it fell well short of its promise (despite the valiant efforts of the cast). First, the book commits the cardinal sin of rounding the edges off of the music, while failing to illuminate it. It's content to string together the songs with an overly familiar tale of four garage band kids struggling to make their way in the world. The Clash was groundbreaking and it's odd to see their work juxtaposed within such an ordinary framework. You excuse a lot in the Fringe, given the tight load-ins and reduced tech -- but I can't excuse the show's lack of any cohesive point of view ...

Overall, LONDON CALLING is a brilliant show and concept, with a story anyone can relate to. If you love music, let alone The Clash, you are sure to enjoy it....
