Sounds Like: "Sometimes, a musical comes along that announces itself from its first few notes as something very, very special... Overtones are being created, individual threads of music are weaving together to form a tapestry of emotion and sense of place that overcomes you like a wave crashing against the rocks. The sound is New York, and it's as familiar as the constant rush of sound of the streets, but simultaneously invigorating and musically new."
