Off Broadway Review: 'Just Jim Dale' - Variety | music-all | Scoop.it

The audiences at “Just Jim Dale” may be turning out to see the chap who gave voice to hundreds of characters as narrator of the entire series of Harry Potter audio books. But they leave the theater humming “Georgy Girl,” the infectious film song that won the British star an Oscar nomination. In the interim, they are royally wooed, pursued, beguiled, enchanted and thoroughly captivated by this actor / singer/ dancer /acrobat / music-hall comic / voice artist / lyricist and raconteur — a one-man band who lives only to make you laugh.

'Hamilton,' 'Fortress of Solitude' as Off Broadway Musicals - New York Times

'Hamilton,' 'Fortress of Solitude' as Off Broadway Musicals - New York Times | music-all | Scoop.it

The words “Broadway” and “musical” have become so tethered in the popular imagination that it is worth reminding people that much of the most innovative musical theater in New York — make that virtually all of the most innovative musical theater in New York — happens Off Broadway. While Broadway must play it safe, relying on tried (and trite) formulas to rope in the crowds, artists can take chances Off Broadway, where the stakes are lower, the audiences more adventurous and the landscape more nurturing to new ideas.
