Where: York Theater
619 Lexington Ave.
New York, NY

Mom's view: The Day Before Spring is not one of Alan Jay Lerner's better shows. The plot about a woman who attends her college reunion and is tempted to leave her husband for the old boyfriend she almost eloped with ten years before is thin. A lot of the characters don't really seem that developed. However, the acting is good. The voices are nice especially that of Madison Claire Parks who plays the lead role of Katherine Talbot. There are some fun, although not especially memorable, songs, including My Love is Married Man sung by Alyse Alan Louis in the scene stealing role of Christopher Randolph one of the most memorable characters in the show. While, it is always interesting to see lesser known works of famous composers, clearly there is sometimes a reason why some shows become hits and other do not.

And that's Mom's view. Tune in Saturday for a Saturday Special.
