James Wilson takes a look at David at AMT Theater:
A program note states that New York's AMT Theater in Hell's Kitchen was established for several different purposes, including serving "as a launching pad to Broadway" and presenting "children's shows which get young people involved at an early age." AMT's new musical, David, based on the biblical king, is certainly not ready to conquer Broadway, but with further development, this tuneful show could be a staple in schools, churches, and community centers. In the theatre world, that in itself would be a triumph akin to besting Goliath. |
