Thoroughly enjoyable evening. All performers were first-rate professionals. They all seemed to have fun performing - together or solo. There were times when the use of microphones made it more difficult to understand everything spoken or sung; instances when the amplified instruments were too loud and almost drowned voices.
With changing vocalists and musical selections, we'd be happy to hear Neil Berg again next year!
Oct 29 2009 Berg is a composer and lyricist who created the music for the off-Broadway musical “The Prince
and the Pauper.” He is currently composing music for new Broadway shows such as “The Twelve,” “Grumpy Old Men: The Musical,” “Fiona: The Mother Goose Musical,” “Tim and Scrooge: A Carol for a Later Christmas” and “Heidi.”
