Theatre Review (LA): 70 Girls 70 by Kander and Ebb at the Alex Theatre - Page 2

Part of: StageMage

The musical could never make up its mind whether it was a series of songs strung together by a flimsy plot or a full-fledged musical. Performers were constantly stepping outside the play to make comments or sing a song. Must have been Kander and Ebb's idea of eccentricity. Nevertheless I enjoyed the evening more than I did back in 1971. 70 Girls 70 played at the Alex Theatre in Glendale on Sept 20th and will repeat Thousand Oaks Civic Arts Plaza on Sept 26th.
