Description
An eye-shattering DayGlo beehive of a revue coated in so many layers of shellac it can't possibly move, this gross misrepresentation of 1960s British girl-power rock—sounds that bridged mainstream postwar consumerism and a dangerous counterculture—might be passable in a theme park. In an honest-to-God theater, though, it's a joke. In these truncated, shrill versions of what once seemed like bulletproof pop tunes, the singers sound like neither the original artists nor, sadly, themselves. None of the 29 songs in Bradley Vieth's hackneyed, blandly homogenized arrangements get adequate treatment. Like Nancy Sinatra's boots, Shout! walks all over a good thing.—CP
