BWW Review: Sting Fans Come To Life at Joe's Pub in Rosemary Loar's Imaginative 'STING*chronicity'
by Victoria Ordin - Aug 29, 2016


When one describes a meal or a performance as 'interesting,' it's usually a euphemism for awful, or at least deeply flawed.

Featuring 13 characters who share little beyond a profound love for Sting (and mutual attendance at the Police reunion tour at Madison Square Garden in 2007), the show presents Loar's highly stylized and unusual interpretations of songs both from the Police era and Sting's forays into jazz as a solo artist.
