Victoria Fringe Mini-Review #3: Broadway Bash - Steve Ivings Entertainment (at Venue 5: Langham Court Theatre). You know me, I love a good Angela Lansbury punchline and I'm of the firm belief that "Send in the Clowns" should be worked into anything whenever possible. This show is a high-energy, raucous, self-aware, crowd-pleasing revue which parodies a whole slate of beloved musical theatre hits. There was consistent positive (and audible!) audience response to the non-stop jokes and nearly non-stop songs. I really appreciated the writer/host's interstitials where he unapologetically quipped and gave context for the songs. I thought that the section that worked best was the block about "strange short-lived shows" which made me think that maybe a future project from this group could benefit from turning their satire towards more specific currents/movements/trends in musical theatre and having a show framed that way. Nevertheless, it's a ton of fun, well-staged, well-paced, and the six singers different approaches (vocally and physically) meshed together really nicely.
