What a beautiful show! This work is intelligent, intimate, witty and charming and filled with stunning performances. Stephan Cole and Matthew Ward are indeed the new voices of musical theatre, and we can only hope for many more shows of this caliber from such a talented pair. BUY THIS CD and enjoy.

5.0 out of 5 stars a melodic and an intelligent written score, September 9, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: After The Fair (1999 Off-Broadway Cast) (Audio CD)

"After the Fair" is a very melodic and intelligent written score. After one listens to this recording, you will be hooked on the smart,funny and moving lyrics and diologue that Stephen Cole has written that compliments the lush and melodic score composed by Matthew Ward. All the actors are superb in bringing the story to life through their wonderful singing. Michele Pawk especially shines on this recording. Anyone who is interested in hearing the highest caliber of new voices for the American musical theatre only has to listen to this CD to discover that Mr. Cole and Mr. Ward are these new voices.

5.0 out of 5 stars I adore this!, September 15, 1999

This review is from: After The Fair (1999 Off-Broadway Cast) (Audio CD)

Listening to this C.D. every time makes me want to kick myself for not seeing this show when it played off-Broadway. The music is awesome and the song There's A Woman/What Is Real is just amazing! It's my favorite new theatre duet. What I'm really happy about on this C.D. is that Michele Pawk FINALLY gets a real lead role! She's an awesome performer and has always had one or two songs on a C.D.--but now she's on all of them! YAY!
