Kennelly Review: MOULIN ROUGE! THE MUSICAL @PlayhouseSquare
by Laura Kennelly 13 Jun '23

13 Jun '23

BOTTOM LINE: Deserving of its numerous awards and designed to tickle musical fancies (and fantasies) Moulin Rouge! The Musical offers a dazzling old-school extravaganza featuring fantasy and musical escape. (I’d say it’s not for young children unless they are interested in sexuality and nudity—and their guardians approve.)

TESTIMONIALS: “His uncannygenius is knowing how the actor and the play can work together like a Swisswatch.” William Mastrosimone, playwright. “For severalyears, I’ve only been partially able to articulate, or utilize, what Bill’sbook, and his teachings have brought right out into the middle of things, whereI have begun to believe they belong, and with blazing clarity. Austin Pendleton, actor, director,playwright & master teacher. “I love workingwith Bill in his ACTING BY MISTAKE workshops. I’ve been taking his workshops forover five years now. He gets us to ‘connect’ with the character in an organicway. He helps us allay the normal fears we have as actors and our need to getit ‘right’ by creating a playful process in which we focus more on the character’sexperience than getting the exact words of the text correct in the rehearsalprocess. That is so freeing. I’m feeling much more confident now in how Iapproach a character and trust that organic process of developing a character.”John Sannuto, Chair, Theatre Department,Long Island University.
