Description / My Opinion
|
|
The booklet contains 13 color photos. This cast recording is weaker than the Broadway Cast Recording. But there are some interesting things to hear in it. Particularly I appreciated the way the Witch (Julia McKenzie) manages her role: she is really evil. She doesn't put as much rythm as Bernadette Peters (OBC) in her songs, but she is a real evil witch, making a really different approach of the character.
