Everybody's Talkin': The Music of Harry Nilsson
79 Horton Plaza, San Diego
Cost: $18 - $62
As he did with the excellent Back to Bacharach, Steve Gunderson weaves together the familiar and unfamiliar tunes of Harry Nilsson into an auditory tapestry. It moves from childhood through labyrinthine relationships to affirmation in the end. The two act, world premiere is a lengthy tapestry, however, even for fans of Nilsson, and needs trimming (is "Good Old Desk" really necessary?) and more clarification about where we are: a rehearsal?. The talent's certainly there. Tony Award-winners Alice Ripley and Gregory Jbara command the state, and local favorite Kurt Norby lends the show his elegant tenor. Worth a try.
