I actually liked this campy off-broadway show. Come on, it was meant to be fun, and three cheers for Nikki Snelson - "I'm In Love With a Terrorist"!

However, when it comes to any soundtrack CD, I measure it on what you can get from just listening to it. This soundtrack is totally meaningless without the on stage antics.

Did the first reviewer see the same play I saw? Impossible. The only reason I stayed to the end was because I paid for the ticket (half price) and it's a sin to waste money. Though its premise sounded appealing at first, I ended up being spectacularly unimpressed with both the story and the music. I squirmed in embarrassment for the composer and librettist, as this material was obviously supposed to be fresh and irreverent but instead was simply weak and painfully unfunny. I hope Mr Karp and Mr Weinstein have day jobs, because musical comedy is definitely not their calling.

This review is from: How to Save the World and Find True Love in 90 Minutes (Audio CD)

Do not be fooled by any shill reviews, this show was a disaster in its commercial off-Broadway run last fall. As a matter of fact, they were so desperate for audiences that they told people how to get half-price tickets in the famous New York times ABC ads; absolutely unheard of! The score is a mish-mash of derivative music aiming to be satirical and lyrics that (as one critic noted) "have a distressingly casual sense of rhyme." Having suffered through this show (luckily on a free ticket) the only saving grace of this recording is that one will be blessedly free of most of the book, quite possibly the stupidest seen in a "professional" musical in a generation; yet even with being blessedly ignorant of the story's shortcomings the score to this is all but unlistenable. Look up Variety's pan of this show online and you will see it actually contains the phrase "bring barf bags." Buyer beware.
