Amazing show! Renee her different voices were so funny, especially Rosa's. The person next to me was giggling all the time and very enthusiastic at the curtain call, but it doesn't disturb the recording. Idreamyouthinkofme’s master.

QPAC Playhouse, Brisbane - 4th March 2023

Hugh Sheridan (Jon), Elenoa Rokobaro (Susan), Finn Alexander (Michael), Sheridan Adams (Ensemble), Hamish Johnson (Ensemble)
 

N: Stunning production of a rarely produced show. All performers shine vocally, and group numbers feel powerful thanks to the addition of two ensemble roles. Elenoa Rokobaro’s ‘Come To Your Senses’ is FLAWLESS. Sophie1’s master.

Hugh Sheridan (Jon), Elenoa Rokobaro (Susan), Finn Alexander (Michael), Sheridan Adams, Hamish Johnston
 

N: Closing performance in Sydney. Begins after the first number “30/90”. There is some rustling near the start but the rest is fine. I have also included a second file containing 4 minutes of “30/90”, taken from a different device. Seismic’s master.

Jef Flores (Jon), Vien King (Michael), Tanya Manalang (Susan)
 

N: doggo’s master. First master!! Gorgeous audio and with a spectacular band that goes so hard it plays over the performers. Interesting use of the tick/booms and lots of fun details. There’s some audible noise in the cast’s mics whenever they run and move their clothes.

Kennedy Center - 3rd February 2024 Matinee

Brandon Uranowitz (Jon), Grey Henson (Michael), Denee Benton (Susan). Ensemble: Kennedy Caughell, Kelvin Moon Loh, Yael “Yaya” Reich, and Nikhil Saboo.


N: Recorded from front side orchestra. Such a fantastic production anchored by Brandon’s perfect Jon. Denee’s voice is stunning and she belts the heck out of Come to Your Senses. I loved getting to see Grey do something different and flex his more dramatic muscles. The ensemble members play minor characters and add background vocals. File includes company board photo and digital program. BoqTheMunchkin’s Master.
