Review (Kind Of): Forbidden Broadway

Anne convinced me to leave work an hour early Wednesday to see a musical called "Forbidden Broadway."

Not being a real experienced theatergoer means this is one production I should have waited to see in a few years since the entire script is full of references to other well-known musicals that I haven't yet seen. Most jokes went over my head, so I dozed off a few times instead.

But I was awakened each time by hearty laughter, particularly from the baritone pipes of the man sitting directly behind me in the small theater. By that measure, I guess I'd recommend "Forbidden Broadway," but for someone who's a Broadway novice, put this on your to-do list for 2008 or later, and plan to see a few things in the meantime.
