The Marvelous Wonderettes
1200 Vale Terrace, Vista, 92084
Bipolar production at Moonlight. In Roger Bean's jukebox musical the performances are as strong as the story is feeble. The Marvelous Wonderettes are replacement entertainment for the senior prom, 1958, and sing at the ten-year reunion. The quartet is profoundly unprofessional and fills the stage with gossip (and generic troubles). But when they sing, they really sing at the Moonlight Amphitheatre. Misty Cotton, Michaelia Leigh, Natalie Storrs, and the excellent Bets Malone handle tight four-part harmonies (a la Forever Plaid) and solo medleys with admirable ease.
Worth a try.
