Swing at Write Act Repertory Theatre

Stage Raw - Somewhat Recommended

"...I gather that this is the latest in a series of musicals about the same German-American family and their journey through the years in America. I have not seen any other installments, so I have no idea if the no-talent songs here are typical of the series or much worse. My advice would be to ditch the songs altogether, which are like lead weights, sinking the intriguing book. Even though I don't like the current resolution, Antin has a fascinating story and some memorable characters. I think they deserve better than to be dragged down by these howlingly dreary and derivative attempts at musical numbers."
