‘Prince of Broadway’ Review: Tribute to a Great Theater Producer and Director
7 / 10
The clunky segues between numbers aside, 'Prince of Broadway' most resembles a Met Opera gala, where one singer after another comes out in full costume to deliver a big aria. 'Prince of Broadway' goes for that same wow factor, with everybody trying to outdo each other. Unlike the greatest hits of opera, though some of these Broadway tunes have been turned into anthems that are merely loud and bombastic, and these include the title songs from 'Kiss of the Spider Woman' and 'The Phantom of the Opera,' as well as 'This Is Not Over Yet' from 'Parade.'
