If Tolstoy ever attended a Broadway show he might have said: Every happy musical is alike, every unhappy musical is different in its own way. is perhaps the most unhappy musical ever. Not the show itself, a deft grunge riff on Puccini's war horse opera, which in Theatre Under the Stars' magical version is an exuberant, life-affirming experience and an absolute gem, but the fact that young creator Larson died of a heart attack on the eve of its Off-Broadway premiere.
A free-form flowing ode that lauds young love among the outcast bohemians of the Millennial generation that uses rock music as its base but is clearly indebted to those ageless verities of Broadway's past: superb plotting, inventive lyrics, ear-catching melodies, a sure sense of showbiz style and know-how, and lively characters you truly care about and root for, no matter how drug-addled and personally messed up their lives are.
The current TUTS cast is stunning in its diversity and talent.
The sets and projections from Ryan McGettigan and Katherine Freer move and glide swiftly with grace like the cast, a wondrous gritty panorama of the lower east side. Director Ty Defoe lets Monica Josette's spirited choreography keep up the life force in which this show abounds.
