Sweet Charity, tour, Orange County Performing Arts Center (2006)

Cast: Molly Ringwald (Charity Hope Valentine), Guy Adkins (Oscar Lindquist), Steve Wilson (Vittorio Vidal)
For complete tour info, see the official Sweet Charity tour site.

Sweet Charity is a very cute old-fashioned musical. It's got a good story without the completely perfect standard musical ending. There's a reason some of the songs from Sweet Charity are

The touring cast is very good! I was impressed with everyone. Having seen the original Broadway cast of the revival, it was hard not to compare them to the cast I saw last year on Broadway. They all did a very good job.

I was disappointed that they didn't create the part of the lake by using part of the pit and cloth the way they did on Broadway, but I guess it was more complicated to work out with a different pit to deal with every few weeks.

Other than that, the show is very well done. I highly recommend catching the tour of Sweet Charity if you missed the revival on Broadway. It's a good show with some wonderful dance numbers and good music.

Grade: B
