Hollywood! Hollywood!
/ Joel Benjamin - theatrescene.net Review / Hollywood! Hollywood! has all the vintage charm of an old-fashioned summer stock musical: energy, intimacy, exuberance, un-amplified singing, off-kilter dancing and an obviousness that smacks the audience in the face. Written by composer/lyricist Lou Briggs, Jerry Herman might just have an odd twinge as Mr. BriggsÃÂÃ,¢Ã,Ã,ÂÃ,Ã, songs have his feel-good sensibility, suiting the mood and storyline perfectly. / Sarah Whalen - nytheatre.com Review / I warn you, this musical is so sweet you might leave with a toothache, but if you're looking for a good time and some old-fashioned fun, this is definitely the show for you.
