Stage Scene LA - Not Recommended

"...Kelly D'Angelo and Matt Daman's well-intentioned but ultimately unsuccessful attempt to transform the 1844 tale of revenge into a musical for 21st Century tastes."

- STEVEN STANLEY

Gia on the Move - Somewhat Recommended

"...The shining star of this production is the musical score and arrangements, which have been perfectly composed by Matt Dahan. You will want to experience the production for this aspect. The rest is awkwardly directed and compacted into a very un-figuratively small black box, being currently mounted at the Lounge Theatre."

"...Alas, The Count of Monte Cristo: The Musical is not there yet. The Fringe production was good - and was a good first start - but there is a long way to go to whip this puppy in a shape that will succeed on the Great White Way."

"...There are many wonderful cast members, each of whom deserves praise for his/her diligence in creating the many characters required for the musical and harmonizing exquisitely during the many musical numbers."
