Wolf Trap, VA

Review: BROADWAY IN THE PARK at Wolf Trap

Sitting in the theatre as the house lights dimmed and the pre-show announcements rolled, I will admit that I took a breath and steeled myself for 2.5 hours of a show I wasn’t particularly excited to see. I had no doubt that the performances I was about to witness would be fun and entertaining (they were), that Candy Dungca and Emily Lane’s costumes would dazzle (they did), and that Dawn Oshima’s scenic and lighting design would delight (also very much did), but I wasn’t sure how much my misgivings about the show itself would affect my overall enjoyment of the evening. But as I left the theatre, I was pleasantly surprised by the relatively low level of ick retained. This cast surprised me with their commitment to the absurdity baked into the show, and did impressive service to the clever wordplay and comedic beats that are typical of a David Yazbeck joint. In short, sheer talent won out over content.

Few things are better than when someone gets a long-awaited opportunity and knocks it out of the park! On America's Got Talent, Liv Warfield walked the walk and talked the talk. She performed an original song, "Stare," to the delight of the judges and audience alike! Simon Cowell was so moved by her (woefully brief) performance that she earned Cowell's Golden Buzzer nod almost immediately afterward.

Music is a masterful tapestry of composition and performance; sometimes, though, even the most iconic songs have their weak spots. When classic tracks fall short, it’s often the vocal performance that listeners point to as the sticking point. This paradox—incredible songs undermined by less-than-stellar singing—can be found throughout the annals of music history. Here we delve into ten such songs, where the vocal delivery didn’t quite match up to the surrounding musical genius.
