Krista Monson of VIVID at Friedrichstadt-Palast Berlin - Dynamite comes in small packages
by Mark Janicello - September 16, 2018
After the record-breaking run of THE ONE, if Krista Monson was worried about fulfilling the Friedrichstadt-Palast's or audience's expectations with her new show VIVID, she hid her nerves extremely well. She is a petite woman, blessed with a very winning smile, an enormous amount of energy, and a calm, nurturing aura that fills every centimeter of this cavernous theater. As the saying goes 'Dynamite comes in small packages.'

BWW Review: THE PLAY THAT GOES WRONG at Renaissance Theater Berlin - Great Cast. Great Farce. Great Fun!
by Mark Janicello - September 08, 2018
From the masters Shakespeare and Feydeau, to John Cleese and Monty Python's Flying Circus, to the more recent works of Ken Ludwig and Michael Frayn, farce is a comic gift that keeps on giving. The Theater Gods have given their highest blessing to the Renaissance Theater's hilariously funny production of THE PLAY THAT GOES WRONG (Mord auf Schloss Haversham). If you want a laugh-out-loud evening in the theater, run, don't walk to get a ticket! Everything's right about THE PLAY THAT GOES WRONG.

BWW Review: GREEN DAY'S AMERICAN IDIOT at Admiralspalast Berlin - Punk Rock in desperate search of good producers.
by Mark Janicello - September 02, 2018
Off-Musical Frankfurt's stripped-down, bare-bones, cheaply-produced touring production of GREEN DAY'S AMERICAN IDIOT that was foisted upon the half-empty Admiralspalast in Berlin last night had almost NOTHING to do with the musical presented on Broadway. Last night's performance was like watching a 3rd-rate, Green Day cover band in a provincial nightclub. The audience and the musical both deserve much better.

BWW Review: KINKY BOOTS at STAGE Operettenhaus Hamburg
by martin ganeider - August 29, 2018
What a night! KINKY BOOTS in Hamburg is a Must See. It's drive is different than the shows in the US or UK. There might be no better place of a show like KINKY BOOTS than the world famous Reeperbahn in Hamburg. It's glitter, it's party, it's diversity at it's best. GINO EMNES is giving the performance of a lifetime. Playing Lola is much more than wearing a wig and dancing around in heels. It's about heart and about believe in who you are. GINO EMNES has created a beautiful portrait of Lola and he brought something new to the character, something to let your eyes sparkle, when he is singing. His partner in crime, DOMINIK HEES, a very handsome and charming Charlie Price. You might understand, why the female characters are totally into him. The chemistry between the both of them is on a high when they are singing 'I'm not my Fathers Son'. It is a very well written show and even the german translation, which is a little bumpy from time to time, is working great in both ways.

BWW Review: DANCE OF THE VAMPIRES at Musical Dome, Cologne - The Vampires take a big, juicy bite out of Cologne
by Mark Janicello - July 27, 2018
20 years after watching Roman Polanski's world-premiere production, it was with great trepidation that I entered the Musical Dome in Cologne, to watch DANCE OF THE VAMPIRES again. To my surprise, it was a quick-footed, highly-entertaining show that was a vast improvement over the original Viennese production.

BWW Review: CABARET at Tipi am Kanzleramt - It's all about location, location, location!
by Mark Janicello - July 21, 2018
Watching CABARET in Berlin, near the original locations of Christopher Isherwood's Book 'I Am A Camera,' gives this Kander and Ebb classic even more dramatic weight than it could possibly have in a New York or London production. At last night's Premiere of the revival of Director/Choreographer Vincent Paterson's production showed why Mr. Paterson has been called 'The Man Behind the Throne.' Widely imitated, but never equaled, his work in Berlin is the best reason to watch this production.

BWW Review: JONAS KAUFMANN - DOLCE VITA at Berlin's Waldbuehne
by Mark Janicello - July 14, 2018
Jonas Kaufmann is probably the most sought-after tenor on the planet today. His DOLCE VITA concert last night at Berlin's glorious outdoor Waldbuehne Amphitheater proved exactly why. Let's state the obvious. Mr. Kaufmann is a tall, very handsome man, who's in very good shape both vocally and physically. He has been blessed with a unique, baritone-like tenor voice with very secure, clarion high notes that he uses with great intelligence and enormous musicality. This is one of the most unique voices singing classical music today.
