If there were ever plans to transfer Road Show, the long-in-arriving Stephen Sondheim-John Weidman musical starring Michael Cerveris and Alexander Gemignani, they are probably extinguished by now. The show, years in the making, officially opened at the Public Theater Nov. 18, and critics by and large found it wanting. Some cheered it as a beguiling chamber musical, fine on its own terms. But most found it slight and second-tier Sondheim, not having achieved its artistic goals or delved deeply enough into its examination of the American knack for potential and invention undermined by greed and connivery.

Cerveris plays The Observer on Fringe who has made a, however brief, appearance in each of the episodes thus far. He has quite a singing voice. If you’ve not heard him sing, you’re missing alot. Check him out as the lead in the revival cast of Sweeney Todd. For a taste click here.

thanks for the news!!
