What did our critic think of WHAT THE CONSTITUTION MEANS TO ME at TheatreSquared? TheatreSquared always impresses me. Before the show I talked with the enjoyable cafe concierge who said he hoped I liked the show. I told him that they always do a wonderful job with every production.

So it's a one Queen show, but it's actually four of us in the show, counting two dancers, Me. And my friend Andrew and we've written all the music, and I sing all the music and wrote all the lyrics with Andrew.
