Review: STRAIGHT NO CHASER Provides an Intoxicating Evening of Fun at the Fox Cities P.A.C.
Atlantic Records recording group STRAIGHT NO CHASER performed to a packed house at the Fox Cities Performing Arts Center as part of their "I'll Have Another...20th Anniversary World Tour." These a cappella superstars gave a tremendous performance that would have been impossible not to enjoy.
STRAIGHT NO CHASER is the best of several worlds: they offer terrific vocals like you'd expect at a great concert along with the sort of comic hilarity you'd expect at a comedy show. Combine that with fun dancing and great visuals courtesy of terrific lighting design, and you have the right mix for one of the most enjoyable shows you'll ever see.
In their performance at the Fox Cities P.A.C., STRAIGHT NO CHASER's set list offered a nice blend of options. There were both pop songs and Christmas numbers. Many numbers were upbeat and energizing, while some were slower and more somber. All the songs were enjoyable, and varying the set list ensured that the performance never felt stale or repetitive.
All in all, STRAIGHT NO CHASER offers everything a theatergoer could hope for, wrapped up neatly with a bow on top.
