...student talent of the Boston Conservatory. Without missing a beat, the music infuses the performance with richness and vim, as the orchestra propels the production forward. The overture, for example, begins the show with the pit’s own “solo,” allowing smooth, instrumental sounds to set the atmosphere of the Old South. Nevertheless, some elements, including Anna B.

Meanwhile, two bandmates navigate a spaceship through rings of lasers in endlessly deep black space, and a fourth races a flying Delorean—what an insane idea—on virtual roads as smooth as Reggie’s voice. While it seems as though this world just couldn’t get any wackier, more challenges confront the Black Kids. They battle skull-headed demons with force fields. Their two-pronged swords of light flash against the darkness. They even manage to find...
