It's as odd as you might imagine. Michael Feinstein and Dame Edna Everage have combined forces for an evening of music and Dame Edna.
Mercifully, it has closed, but one can't help but wonder if Max Bialystock was a part of this bizarre mash-up. The wannabe Vegas style set, complete with 12 piece band and a white grand piano filled most of the stage, shoving the unfortunate action to the apron. Why Christopher Durang allowed his name to be associated with this travesty is beyond me. It must have been an impressive check that arrived with no performance clauses in the contract.
Alas, maybe the third time will be the charm for this newest house on Broadway, now named the Stephen Sondheim.
