Review by Doug Iden of “œMeet Me in St. Louis“: Covedale Theatre The year long wait by the Smith family for the 1904 Louisiana Purchase
The inspired choice to weave in a 1960s and ‘70s musical “score” (arranged and directed by Max Kaufman) deepens the emotional resonance and rebellion at the heart of the story. Crosby, Stills & Nash’s “Our House” provides a poignant, a cappella coda that brings a lump to the throat and a smile to the face—proof that Shakespeare and classic rock make a sublime match.
This show has many amazing technical elements. First and foremost the band is incredible. They play Webber and Rice’s score like they were in the room when it was first put to paper. They rock the house every single song. As this rock opera is entirely sung, you have to admire the endurance of these talented performers.
