In
this hilarious satire of Musical Theatre, one story becomes five
delightful musicals,each written in the distinctive style of a
different master of the form. June, an ingénue who can’t
pay the rent, is threatened by her evil landlord. Will the handsome
leading man come to her rescue? In an evening of variations on a
theme, this basic plot is envisioned it, taking place in Kansas in
August, complete with a Dream Ballet. The story is then done in the
style of Stephen Sondheim, featuring the landlord as a tortured
artist unhappy with the tenants because they don’t appreciate
his art. When presented in the style of Jerry Herman, the story
becomes a splashy star vehicle, while the Andrew Lloyd Webber version
is a rock musical, with borrowed themes from Puccini. The story is
retold one last time in the style of Kander and Ebb, set in a Cabaret
in Chicago. One reviewer called it “A gift from the musical
theatre gods!”
