If you don’t get a lump in your throat in the final scene when the youthful Frank, Charley and Mary sing “Our Time” looking skyward with wonder and wide-eyed innocence at Sputnik in 1957 nighttime sky from a Brooklyn rooftop, you have no heart.
“The Royal Family of Broadway” combines a powerhouse of creative talent and a large, top-drawer cast in an impressive, delightfully entertaining world premiere: the best original musical staged in the Berkshires theater scene yet.
The cast and production are Broadway-worthy and, like the Royal Family of Broadway, the concept belongs on the Great White Way where every rhinestone is a diamond and every combed cotton is velvet.
