...Kaiama Glover binds choreography with a problematic industrial/funk beat. Poor stage acoustics muffled the sound so much that at first, it was inaudible; when soundpeople Sean O'Keefe and George Duffield took steps to increase the volume and integrate the music with the mood and flow of the play, they made it so loud that it was more distracting than beneficial...

In addition are three "new" musicals recycling songs by black composers: Five Guys Named Moe, produced by London impresario Cameron Mackintosh but mounted by Americans around the work of Louis Jordan; Jelly's Last Jam, featuring Jelly Roll Morton music and tap dancers Gregory Hines and Savion Glover; and The High Rollers Social and Pleasure Club, a review starring New Orleans songwriter Allen Toussaint...
