Description
It's sometimes hard to know what you're laughing at in Gutenberg! The Musical!, even though the laughs are abundant in this two-man, two-act, two-joke tuner now playing in the cabaret space of the Royal George. Alex Goodrich and Breon Bliss are excellent as naive schlubs pitching their naively conceived “historical fiction” musical about the German inventor of the printing press. But their “Bad Idea” theater piece is actually campy fun, while we're asked to believe the “writers” are too stupid to conceive anything worthwhile. The two styles of humor are in deadlocked competition with each other, which can be fatiguing.—Christopher PiattWhen
