This South African by way of London
musical opened to tepid reviews at the Cort Theater August 19th.
It's the trials and tribulations of a 1950s South African group who
echoed the street-corner harmonies of US doo-wop groups. The very
thin book echoes that cute, little Tom Hanks' film of a few years
ago: the group is discovered, finds overnight success, greed,
jealousy and confused love result in an overnight drop from the
charts. The Hanks' film is worth a $2.50 rental, you can always turn
it off; it hurts to walk out on a $75 Broadway ticket
