Kander & Ebb's last show "The Visit" now on Broadway has a tuneful score and an excellent lead performance by the legendary Chita Rivera, but overall the work felt distant and left me cold. Having said that, John Doyle has given this show a well edited Brechtian tinted gloss that is greatly improved from the prior incarnation of "The Visit" that I saw at the Goodman Theater quite a few years ago. However, the underlying problem here is the source material that has been musicalized. |
