Critic Says Jersey Boys Vegas is ‘Benissimo’!
June 4th, 2011eTN Special Correspondent Dr. Anton Anderssen raves about the Las Vegas production of JERSEY BOYS! Check out this preview:
“Jersey Boys†is benissimo! From the moment of entry to the Palazzo, we were bedazzled by opulence – the multi-billion-dollar complex would make every Roman god, from Apollo to Zeus, drop his jaws in awe. The musical is the quintessential depiction of man’s struggle to reach ostensibly unattainable heights. From their days as singers performing beneath streetlights in the projects, to the spotlights of the Rock-and-Roll Hall of Fame, The Four Seasons anthropomorphize the four immeasurable virtues described by The Great Buddha: loving-kindness, compassion, sympathetic joy, and equanimity. We witness the joy of creating musical hits; the singers are so connected to the audience, we feel that joy, too.

Well, I’ve got to say that this review is the first I’ve read in which “Buddha,” “motor cortex” or “gushing” appeared, let alone all three in the same article.
What’s next?
