  • Opening Ni! <i>Spamalot</i> kicks off 2013 at the Muny

    Opening Ni! Spamalot kicks off 2013 at the Muny

    Wasn't that great?" a middle-aged man asked his wife as they strode out of the Muny after Monday's season-opening performance of Monty Python's Spamalot. "It was better than great," the wife replied. "It was thrilling." Indeed it was thrilling... More »

  • All Hail the King: The Muny dishes up a royal treat with the <i>King and I</i>

    All Hail the King: The Muny dishes up a royal treat with the King and I

    It took all summer, but here in its closing week the Muny is finally telling a story about real people experiencing real emotions. Up till now, we've been mostly entertained (and supremely entertained) by escapist fare featuring animated... More »

  • Getting to Know the King of Siam

    Getting to Know the King of Siam

    Adapted from the novel Anna and the King of Siam, Rodgers and Hammerstein's The King and I tells the tale of a young governess who arrives in Siam to care for the royal children. When the show opened on Broadway in 1951, it was an immediate hit,... More »

  • <i>Pirates!</i> is the Muny\'s greatest treasure of the season

    Pirates! is the Muny's greatest treasure of the season

    Shiver my timbers, as Long John Silver would say. This week Forest Park is awash with pirates, and they are a fearsome bunch. Fearsomely funny, that is. Pirates! (or, Gilbert & Sullivan Plunder'd) is a spirited new spin on the 1879 operetta The... More »

  • Kevin Gray returns to Muny for his signature role in <i>The King and I</i>

    Kevin Gray returns to Muny for his signature role in The King and I

    Kevin Gray will never forget his inaugural entrance onto the Muny stage. "The first time I ever performed in Forest Park was in The King and I back in 1989," he recalls. "Stacy Keach was the King, and I was Lun Tha [the doomed young lover who... More »

  • 2012 | Best Playbill Bio

    For the 2012 season's final show, The King and I, executive producer Mike Isaacson blue-penciled his playbill biography. For the first six productions, Isaacson's bio remained pretty standard, chronicling the creative director's extensive theater credits. But for the final week, he threw out the template and replaced the old standby with a bio that was twice as long but contained nary a word about Isaacson. Instead he devoted the space to listing all the behind-the-scenes personnel:... More »

  • 2012 | Best Couple in a Musical

    Here's the thing about Anna and the King of Siam: They're two adults who behave like adults. Which is to say that they can be petty and small and stubborn -- but at least their starting point is maturity. We don't see a lot of mature people in the theater these days. Like the movies, plays and musicals are skewing to younger audiences. Although the Muny's King and I was the twelfth Forest Park staging of this venerable Rodgers and Hammerstein musical since 1955 (St. Louisans are so... More »

  • 2011 | Best Actress in a Musical

    "They can't make a fool out of Lina Lamont," the ditzy silent-screen star protests in Singin' in the Rain. But Michele Ragusa, who portrayed Lina during a sweltering week at the Muny this past summer, transformed the character into a fool of monumental proportions -- which is precisely what needs to be done if a performance is going to reach the free seats. This one did, with curves and swagger to spare. Ragusa could take a simple line like, "And I can't stand him," and turn it into the... More »

  • 2010 | Best Intermission

    Intermissions can be tricky commodities, which may explain why they're being omitted from more and more plays. The break should be long enough to give the viewer an opportunity to digest what has been seen in Act One -- but not so long that people begin to forget what they've just seen. We've attended plays that have barely a dozen people in the audience, and the intermission drags on in excess of twenty minutes. By contrast, the intermissions at the Muny in Forest Park appear to be... More »

  • 2009 | Best Musical

    Sure, best musical: With the passing decades, it becomes ever more clear that Meredith Willson's 1957 romantic comedy about a two-bit thimble rigger of a con man who tries to hornswoggle the good people of River City, Iowa, is an essential American musical. From its very first song, The Music Man challenges convention, challenges its performers, even challenges its audience, obliging us to pay strict attention. The first act, especially, is probably as tightly written as any show in our... More »
