NEWS FROM NEW YORK CITY

I have heard from a close relative of mine who was in New York City and saw two shows. Both were disappointing. "Spider Man" was a blah. The music was not memorable nor even hummable. The special effects were just fine,  but as a show it was not very entertaining. I just read that they were were shutting the show down for two weeks to "revamp". Maybe the revamping will be an improvement.

The second show was "Sister Act'". I was told  that this production needed star power.  I believe that if a script is good it does not need star power. If it is a bad script star power will not help. However, this show is not recommended either.

On  the revival front comes two very interesting shows. "How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying" stars that Harry Potter guy Daniel Radcliff. Also playing is the rip roaring musical "Anything Goes". Both shows insure entertainment.
