Editorial Review:

Amazon.com:
Under its enigmatic title lurks a remarkably entertaining little show. The Drowsy Chaperone is a droll Canadian import that's part homage to the musical theater, part spoof. Narrated by the unnamed Man in Chair (Bob Martin), the show basically reenacts a 1920s musical named 'The Drowsy Chaperone.' This allows the creative team to match an inspired collection of familiar 1920s types---the flapper (Sutton Foster), the cad (Troy Britton Johnson), the zinger-slinging diva (Beth Leavel), the Latin lothario (Danny Burstein), the zany character actors (Georgia Engel, Edward Hibbert)---with witty, well-crafted pastiches of songs of that era. Penned by Lisa Lambert and Greg Morrison, the tunes are instantly hummable, while the ensemble cast is uniformly superb---you know the standard is high when the awesome Sutton Foster doesn't even stand out that much. Thankfully, the 'meta' concept doesn't lead to arch-irony and detachment. A genuine affection for what makes musicals so fun shines throughout, making this a real keeper of an album. --Elisabeth Vincentelli

Customer Reviews
Average Rating: out of 5 stars

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - * Good...but not as good as the show itself. ...
There's no question the cast album contains the songs of the show. However, much of the theatrical experience for this particular show is the "Man in Chair". The cast album captures only a very limited portion of his role in the show. If you have seen the show and liked it, you will probably enjoy the soundtrack. If you are buying the soundtrack as a substitute for seeing the show, you are missing out on a lot of the "live" experience.


Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - * I never got this item!!!! ...
I enjoyed seeing the show. Unfortunately, I never got the CD I paid for. I order this from seller onyousir on Sept 7, 2008. It is October 10 and I'm still waiting . . . . . . .


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - * The Drowsy Chaperone ...
This is one of the most delightful, entertaining musical in years, and the recording is just as enjoyable. It should be with every collector.


Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - * The Drowsy Chaperone ...
Recalls the 20's era, with music and typical lyrics. i like the premise of The Drowsy Chaperone, and thought it well executed. Wish I had been able to see the show live.


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - * The Drowsy Chaperone CD ...
This is a fun, and Funny show. and the songs are good. My Favorites are Fancy dress, Toledo Surprise, Show Off, and Cold Feet's. Get this C.D.

Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban (Widescreen Edition) (Harry Potter 3)
$9.97



Some movie-loving wizards must have cast a magic spell on Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, because it's another grand slam for the Harry Potter franchise. Demonstrating remarkable versatility after the arthouse success of Y Tu Mamá También, director Alfonso Cuarón proves a perfect choice to guide Harry, Hermione, and Ron into treacherous puberty as the now 13-year-old students at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry face a new and daunting challenge: Sirius Black (Gary Oldman) has escaped from Azkaban prison, and for reasons yet unknown (unless, of course, you've read J.K. Rowling's book, considered by many to be the best in the series), he's after Harry in a bid for revenge. This dark and dangerous mystery drives the action while Harry (the fast-growing Daniel Radcliffe) and his third-year Hogwarts classmates discover the flying hippogriff Buckbeak (a marvelous CGI creature), the benevolent but enigmatic Professor Lupin (David Thewlis), horrifying black-robed Dementors, sneaky Peter Pettigrew (Timothy Spall), and the wonderful advantage of having a Time-Turner just when you need one. The familiar Hogwarts staff returns in fine form (including the delightful Michael Gambon, replacing the late Richard Harris as Dumbledore, and Emma Thompson as the goggle-eyed Sybil Trelawney), and even Julie Christie joins this prestigious production for a brief but welcome cameo. Technically dazzling, fast-paced, and chock-full of Rowling's boundless imagination (loyally adapted by ace screenwriter Steve Kloves), The Prisoner of Azkaban is a Potter-movie classic. --Jeff Shannon
