Description
The exclamation point has gotten a bad rap. Two years ago, however, TimeLine did much to rehabilitate the punctuation's image with its irony-free revival (now remounted) of Fiorello!, the 1959 musical about New York mayor Fiorello H. LaGuardia and his righteous battles against Tammany Hall corruption. Fiorello! does exactly what its exclamation point suggests, imbuing a worthy story with a hunk of cheese and a hefty dose of heart. Between the muscle-bound celebration of the good side of American politics and Doug Peck's impeccable music direction of Bock and Harnick's infectious score, the exclamation point is proudly earned.—KVWhen
