One of the most awe-inspiring musicals I have been to in the the recent past has got to be Raell Padamsee’s Broadway & Beyond which stars Ramona Arena, Shariyar Atai, Tara Sutaria and Siddharth Meghani.
If you love the old musicals and Broadway plays, this one’s for you. Ramona sings a smoky rendition of Cabaret, All That Jazz (from Chicago) and Diamond’s Are A Girl’s Best Friend while Shariyar’s Parsi versions of famous famous songs (La La Bamba becomes Bawa Bawa) are hilarious and will have you rolling in the aisles.
Even his Phantom Of The Opera with the young Tara Sutaria is haunting enough to send a shivers (of appreciation) up your spine!
Some of the other famous songs you’ll hear and see performed in Broadway & Beyond include Memory (from Cats), My Way (by Frank Sinatra), New York New York and Voulez Vous from Mama Mia.
Catch it this weekend at the NCPA in Mumbai and check your local paper for show-timings!
