Ingrid fliter was fantastic @ sundays show, showing who was boss on the ivory and black. She was in sync with the symphony, I wish she could have played longer, but I enjoyed every minute.

Extremely entertaining and funny. The vocal performances were very good, the comedy was hilariously entertaining , and the fifty-piece symphony orchestra led by William Liberatore did a fine job. During several of the songs the orchestra really was swinging. Generally, all the players contributed to the success of the production. Individually, Christine Andreas, in the role of Kate, sang beautifully and showed fine comedic talent as well. Additionally, Ms. Andreas demonstrated she has one of the thrilling voices among Broadway performers. Richard White in his role of Petruchio also was superb. The show was a delight to attend

After spending $165 for two tickets for Meiyu and myself, we arrived at the theater, got seated and wondered where the scenery was because the orchestra filled almost the entire stage. On the stage front were 1/2 dozen microphones and about a dozen chairs on each of the stage left and stage right.

Puzzled, I went to ask an usher who informed me that this is not the Broadway play presentation. There is no scenery. Various actors portray the various parts (on the front portion of the stage) that go with the singing for each song as they read their lines out of the notebook they each have in hand.

The California Theater and the Silicon Valley Symphony are already a winning combination. Add the amazing local and guest artist talents of the Kiss Me Kate cast and you have a show of outstanding entertainment. Hats off to Bill Liberatore who was obviously having the best time conducting these wonderful musicians. Broadway in Concert is a fantastic addition to our arts community!

Favorite moment: The magnificent Brahms 4th Symphony with Cleve's dynamic leadership and an orchestra fully and powerfully participating. @

My wife and I did not care for the Ravel pieces. There was not coherence to the music and too atonal for our taste. Brahms 4th Symphony was a powerful rendition full of life and fire. The surprise encore of a Strauss waltz medley was pleasant surprise that ended the evening on a light and happy note.

The dancers are all very talented but I thought the show was very bizarre. Not my type of choreography of choice. The routines started out great but there was no build up, no spark or hightlighted moment. The routines and music just dragged on and on and on. I apologize for my brutal honesty but I paid $80 to see this show and was expecting something fantastic. I can appreciate creativity but this was a little bizarre at times and made no sense to me. But on a happier note, the dancers were great!

Once again, I was in awe. Each piece was incredible, and "The Winged" came together beautifully. Best piece of the night: "Tomorrow". I cried, then I laughed so hard that I cried AGAIN. Beautiful show danced by amazing dancers, and a wonderful job by iDANCE. Great balance of comedy, athleticism, and heart.
