FEATURED REVIEWS FOR The Rascals: Once Upon a Dream
‘Once Upon a Dream’ with the Rascals: Theater review
6 / 10
For most of the two-hour show, fans can bask in the first full performance by this pioneering, New Jersey-born, blue-eyed-soul band in 40 long years. Better, the years have only heightened the guys' instrumental chops.
Once Upon a Dream: Theater Review
6 / 10
Directed by Van Zandt and Marc Brickman, Once Upon a Dream fails to dig deep into the rise and fall of one of the '60s most popular groups. Using the band members to spin their story prevents an honest telling of it...Van Zandt's book is sloppy, wanders, loses chronology and makes the guys appear less intelligent than they most likely are. As a band, the Rascals sound fine. There's something to be said for not working hard for so many years. With less wear and tear than many others groups from the period, Cavaliere and Brigati preserved their voices; Cavaliere's remains one of the most distinctive in rock. Cornish distinguishes himself with numerous guitar solos and Danelli is a wiry wonder behind the drum kit.
