"There is something undeniably joyful about a good old-fashioned musical comedy, and Crazy for You at Don Bluth Front Row Theatre delivers plenty of that joy. While it may not reach the heights of a truly dazzling production, the Tony-winning musical bursts with upbeat performances and lighthearted charm, with a cast that leans into the humor and energy of the show....The performers bring the central characters to life with warmth and dedication. While Robert Allocca comes across as slightly tentative as Bobby, he shines once he dons the disguise of Bella, where his physical comedy and confidence create a fun, comical character. Polly is played with poise and energy by Yoshi, who anchors the show with her bright and winning singing voice and graceful dancing....a cheerful and tuneful production. While the story may be familiar and the staging here isn't that grand, the combination of talented performers, spirited choreography, and gorgeous costumes makes for a charming evening. Plus, you can't beat those Gershwin songs." - Gil Benbrook, TalkinBroadway.com (click here to read the complete review)
