William Finn is the Walt Whitman of show tunes: a composer and lyricist whose vibrant, idiosyncratic voice-always personal but rarely merely so-finds potential for transcendence amid the zigs and zags of the everyday. This musical revue, conceived and directed by Rob Ruggiero and sung by a solid cast of four, provides a worthy survey of the contradictory impulses-witty, wistful, jaunty, neurotic, brave-at play in Finn’s work. He contains multitudes, and in his own stubbornly unique way, he’s one of the musical-theater greats.
Presented by Junkyard Dog Productions, Demos Bizar Entertinment and Surefire Theatrical in association with Larry Hirschhorn, Remmel T Dickinson, Jayson Raitt and Mariano Tolentino, Jr.
