Rating: 5.0
Superior to CATS in all aspects
This is one amazing video. This video production is the 4th production of the show I've seen and I also recently played Potiphar and Asher in a production. This video was so wonderful. This is obviously a show I love. The sets were terrific (especially the Potiphar sets), the acting was for the most part - great (Marie is my new favorite person...she's delicious as the Narrator), and musically it was tons of fun. An incredibly fun and original production which is bound to bring lots of attention (and money) to this show. My one complaint? The costumes. Right there on the cover it says, "The Classic Family Musical", and we have Mrs. Potiphar and her servants bouncing in around in practically nothing. And then in the Pharaoh sequence...what are those girls wearing? Nothing but gold chains? Perhaps, "The Classic Musical" should have just been in the video, and not "Classic Family". Aww well, all in all, a great musical that is terrible amounts of fun. I highly recommend it (Though parents be prepared for some covering of the eyes of your children).
