Theater Critic Review

Seattle Times
September 11, 1998

Jonathan Larson's hugely-hyped, Tony Award and Pulitizer Prize winning Broadway rock musical, a downtown Manhattan version of Puccini's "La Boheme," is up to speed in this high-voltage touring edition at the Moore for an extended stay. Larson's eclectic blues-rock-musical comedy score, and a revved-up staging with strong singer-actors, communicate the sweetness and angst of boho life in downtown New York, circa the early 1990's. Leave your preconceptions at the door, and enjoy.
