You Gotta Have Heart Cabaret Review

What a lovely evening! I just returned from Golden Stone Productions "You Gotta Have Heart" Cabaret & Silent Auction at Hillside Manor.

I has such a delightful time .... The songs were not your typical fare from your typical musicals. It was wonderful! There were some well known songs - "Love Song" from Forum, "You Gotta Have Heart,": from Damn Yankees, "Suddenly Seymour" From Little Shop. "Agony" from Into the Woods and "What I did for Love" from A Chorus Line

But it visited other less trodden paths as well. I especially enjoyed "Taylor, the Latte boy," his Response as well as "See What I Wanna See" and "Astonishing".

The performers were a number of my favorites from local productions - Kevin Archambault, Virginia Ferri, Vicki Howland, Esme Hyman, Patrick Kiernan, Lindsey Michaels, Olivia Michaels, Thomas Netter, Amanda Quiggley, Wendell Scherer, AnnChris Warren, Michael Werner and Jennifer Zell.

An excellent job was done by everyone in the cast, as well as the Emcee, who helped the different numbers flow from one to the next.
