This
musical revue is a celebration of the music of Kander and Ebb in
which the five characters search for love and their ideal partners
and express their feelings using the medium of the fine songs
written by these two great songwriters.
Liquid
Productions have such an abundance of talent they are able to
'double-cast' many of the roles and certainly I am tempted to
return to see the 'other' cast as well.
Rachel Brown, Gillian
Haycock, Fiona Mitchell, Kenneth Pinkerton and Alan Scobbie
effortlessly flowed through classic songs from the likes of
Cabaret, Chicago, The Rink and Flora. the Red Menace, with
panache, some interesting choreography and direction.
The
band, under the Musical Direction of Alan Gibson, provided the
framework on which the whole production hung.
So,
if you have only seen Cabaret or Chicago before, this would be an
ideal opportunity to see some slightly less known works of these
composers performed by a very able company.
