Los Angeles Theater Review: DEAR WORLD (Valley Performing Arts Center in Northridge)
1969. The final year in what was one of the most turbulent decades in American history. The battle between counterculture dissidents and the corporate establishment could melt lead, and in the middle the blood was drained from the ideal Ozzie and Harriet family and the U.S. was headed to a most uncertain future. No wonder the American Musical followed suit. In between the rock musical Hair (1968) and the opening of the Declaration of Independence musical 1776 (March, 1969) was the opening of a Jerry Herman musical that tried but failed to amalgamate a timely anti-establishment theme with a lamentation for an earlier time when life was glamorous, unlike the late ’60s. -- Stage and Cinema
