Broadway musical Jubilee opens amid rival shows and praise
A Broadway style review notes A Musical Jubilee began as a Theatre Guild cruise show, opened beside a revival of Tenderloin in an unfashionable offbeat venue, and stars Brad Blaisdell and Pamela McLernon. It praises Bock and Harnick while lauding new talents. Gorky at American Place Theatre earns mixed verdicts. The Chelsea Theater Center’s The Family draws attention for its four part, two evening format, with strong performances by David Selby as Doc.
