BWW Reviews: Decking the Halls -- A WONDERFUL LIFE: THE MUSICAL

Holiday carols play in the background. The tree is nicely decorated. It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas at the John W. Engeman Theater in Northport, Long Island, where the delightful A Wonderful Life: the Musical is playing through January 8, 2012.

BWW Reviews: Tasty Production of LITTLE SHOP OF HORRORS Graces The Muny Stage

I'm a big fan of lowbrow horror and science fiction films, especially those made between the 1930's and late 1970's, and I've always enjoyed the work of cult director/producer Roger Corman. The original 1960 film version of LITTLE SHOP OF HORRORS, was supposedly shot in four days, and it downright bristles with a sense of energy and cheap thrills, even though the budget was a mere pittance compared to what's spent on the blockbusters we witness today. Howard Ashman (book and lyrics) and Alan Menken (music) took the basic premise put forward by writer Charles Griffith and crafted a very clever and funny off-Broadway musical which, in turn, spawned a rather lackluster and overblown movie version. So, it was with some trepidation that I looked forward to The Muny's current production. It's simply not a big splashy affair, and it would seem to benefit most from a smaller venue. Happily, they do the show justice, and the expansive stage that allows for larger production numbers doesn't get in the way of the simpleness of the story.
