[NEohioPAL] ROUTE 66 -- Final 4 Performances

[Neil Thackaberry]

Last week 3 of the 4 performances sold out.

Don't miss Frank, Shawn, Adam & Gabe sing their hearts out.

*Route 66* is a terrific musical review that is currently playing at
Actor’s Summit in Akron.

The cast of four guys performs 26 car songs from the 50’s & 60’s that
transport us along the iconic highway from Chicago to LA, starting with the
Texaco gas theme and the title song “Route 66” and ending with a medley of
muscle car songs. Along the way it’s a really enjoyable journey featuring
songs you know like Roger Miller’s “King Of The Road” and Willie Nelson’s
“On The Road Again,” songs you may not know like “Used To Be” and “Truck
Stop Cutie,” and songs you probably forgot like “The Girl On The Billboard.”


But the music is only half the fun in *Route 66* because virtually the
entire show is choreographed to compliment the songs. It’s packed with
inventive movement that’s always fun to watch and sometimes is absolutely
hilarious, often reminding me of the whimsy captured by Laurel and Hardy in
their famous dance sequence from *Way Out West*.

The cast is perfect. Adam Klusty, Shawn Galligan, Frank Jackman and Gabriel
Riazi are given solo moments, are all very funny, and are also great at
blending their voices in terrific harmony. Highlights include Adam’s
“Oklahoma Hills.” Shawn’s “Used To Be,” Frank’s “Highway Patrol” and “Six
Days On The Road” and Gabriel’s “Girl On The Billboard.” The show is so
much fun, you can tell that they are having as good a time as the audience.
*Route 66* is great summer entertainment.
