Bonnie and Clyde at the Garrick Theatre, London
Slicker than before, the show has not lost the rapport with the audience it had in its earlier, considerably more intimate incarnation. This bigger, bolder, better production is worth a shot, and few will feel robbed after seeing it. Review by Chris Omaweng
“What is the style of the musical?”
Bonnie and Clyde is a thrilling and sexy musical with a unique score that combines blues, gospel, and rockabilly music. The musical is a departure from traditional Broadway fare, and it has been praised for its originality and its blend of genres.
The blues songs in the musical reflect Bonnie and Clyde’s roots as poor people from the South. The gospel songs reflect their religious faith, which helped them to cope with the violence and danger of their lives. And the rockabilly songs reflect their rebellious spirit and their desire to live life on their own terms.
The musical’s score is not the only thing that makes it unique. The musical also features a non-traditional plot structure. The musical does not follow a linear timeline, and it jumps back and forth between the past and the present. This structure helps to create a sense of suspense and mystery, and it also helps to explore the characters’ motivations in greater depth.
Bonnie and Clyde is a unique and exciting musical that is sure to entertain audiences of all ages. The musical’s blend of genres, its non-traditional plot structure, and its catchy songs make it a must-see for fans of musical theatre.
