We saw [title of show] at the Beck Center, and I loved it! It's pretty unusual for two musicals to be going on at the Beck Center. I definitely enjoyed this one much more than Forever Plaid.
It's witty metatheater about the creation of a musical, namely, this one. Two guys, Hunter and Jeff, decide to write a musical in three weeks and submit it to a festival. Their friends Heidi and Susan help. It's really quite clever. There are lots of references to other shows within it. There are even several quotations from other musicals.
The show runs 90 minutes without intermission and is funny and self referential. It never takes itself too seriously, but there are serious moments that don't kill the light bubbly fun. If you are a fan of Broadway, this is definitely a show for you!
