Review of "Bullets Over Broadway" at Playhouse Square
by Bob Abelman via NEohioPAL 09 Oct '15

09 Oct '15

‘Bullets Over Broadway’ a low caliber play in a high caliber production Bob Abelman Cleveland Jewish News, The News Herald, The Morning Journal Member, International Association of Theatre Critics Borrowing from the vernacular of the pinstripe-suited gangsters who populate Woody Allen’s homage to 1920’s musicals, “Bullets Over Broadway” has all da right parts in all da right places. The show comes replete with a time-tested backstage storyline, broadly-drawn stock characters right out of central casting, jazz-infused standards like Cole Porter’s “Let’s Misbehave” that serve as show tunes, and high energy production numbers perfect for the period. But “Bullets Over Broadway,” which is the stage version of Allen and Douglas McGrath’s nonmusical 1994 film of the same name, never becomes more den da sum of its parts.

BOOTYCANDY tells the story of Sutter, who is on an outrageous journey through his childhood home, his church, dive bars, motel rooms, and even a nursing home. The play tells his story through scenes, sermons, sketches and meta-theatrics. (Sort of “In Living Color” and “Saturday Night Live” style, and very non-politically correct.) All except Actor Two play multiple roles ACTOR ONE: Black Woman (age 20-30), plays Young Black Mom, Adella, Big Shirley, Writer 1, Young Sibling, Intifada ACTOR TWO: Black Man (age 20-30), plays Sutter ACTOR THREE: Black Woman (age 30-40), plays Eudarrie, Lucy, Writer 2, Middle Aged Mother, Genitalia ACTOR FOUR: Black Man (age 30-40), plays Reverend Benson, Writer 3, Stepfather, Larry, Old Granny ACTOR FIVE: White Male (age 20-40), plays Roy, Clint, Moderator, Officiant, White Man NOTE: This is a gay satire so there will be some guy-on-guy kissing. If this is a problem, then this ain’t the play and theater for you. Also, maybe there might be some brief nudity on the part of Actor Five.
