Sold Out Show at Act2PV Theater

Another fabulous Greatest Show last night at Act2PV; next week will be the ultimate until 2025. I suggest early reservations; it is bound to sell out. It is amazing to me that week after week, in the summer, Cate Elizabeth Valcic has produced such high-quality, two-plus hours shows in less than a week’s time. The Greatest Show has been a triumphant blend of new and seasoned talent, a sounding board to learn what the public wants, and then giving it to them with both barrels.

I can count on one hand how many tracks were used in The Greatest Show all summer; virtually all the accompaniment has been live, and nearly all of that performed by veteran virtuoso pianist David Maiocco. Do yourself a favor: run to the box office for tickets when Maiocco dusts off his sequins in season for his Liberace tribute show.

Meanwhile, Davids Sabella and Maiocco will present Classical Connections tomorrow night, which will showcase their years and years of study of “serious” music. Sabella gave us a taste of his countertenor’s voice that won Best in the World in 1993, if memory serves, and will share what the late, great Luciano Pavarotti had to say about him. I will see you there.
