With intense and tricky harmonies and complex syncopations, Jason Robert Brown's SONGS FOR A NEW WORLD is an ambitious title for any company to program, let alone an up and coming group like The Eklektix Theatre Company (ETC). With that said, from what I saw at last night's final dress rehearsal, ETC proves that some risks are worth taking. The young company, filled with fresh faces and young talent, deftly tackles Jason Robert Brown's intricate score and is producing a staged concert that is both beautiful and moving.
