*A night of musical memories and theatrical splendor unfolds at the Hollywood Pantages with the Broadway in Hollywood opening of A Beautiful Noise: The Neil Diamond Musical.
With a world plagued by distress, how nice it is to be immersed in the songs of Neil Diamond.
Admittingly, many fans may not know the origins of Neil Diamond’s compositions. Still, their timeless appeal is irrefutable.
The songs of our youth and wanting were songs that came out of inner conflict, hopeful resolve & the highs and lows of relationships.
A Beautiful Noise: The Neil Diamond Musical draws back the curtains of Neil Diamond’s public life and provides a seat in his therapy sessions, where he questions his life, his values and his connection to his music.
He spent decades on the road soaking up the adulation of fans while his family thirsted for more of Neil Diamond the man.
The reluctant songwriter’s journey led to a pop star’s sensation. Mr. Diamond’s phenomenal career spans 50+ years and boasts over 130 million record sales.
There are the songs that he wrote or co-wrote such as Heart Light (Diamond, Bayer Sager & Bacharach) and You Don’t Bring Me Flowers (Diamond and Marilyn Bergman).
Then there are Neil Diamond’s pop music standards such as Hello Again, I’m A Believer, September Morn, America, Yesterday’s Songs, Song Sung Blues and the feel-good anthem Sweet Caroline (bop, bop bop).
They bring on the good times with every refrain.
Nick Fradiani (Neil Diamond – Then) is currently joined on tour by Robert Westenberg (Neil Diamond – Now), Hannah Jewel Kohn (Marcia Murphey), Lisa Reneé Pitts (Doctor), Michael Accardo (Bert Berns/ Kieve Diamond), Tuck Milligan (Fred Weintraub/Tommy O’Rourke), Kate Mulligan (Ellie Greenwich/Rose Diamond), Tiffany Tatreau (Jaye Posner), with Joe Caskey as the standby for ‘Neil-Then.’
Rounding out the current company as “The Noise” are Cooper Clack, Chris Marsh Clark, Denver Dizon (Swing), Dale Duko, Deirdre Dunkin, Rene Mirai Guyon (Swing), Ginger Hurley, Jer (Swing), Spencer Donavan Jones, Zoë Maloney (Swing), Ellen McGihon, Thabitha Moruthane, Ramsey Pack, Jeilani Rhone-Collins, Alec Michael Ryan (Swing), Vanessa Aurora Sierra (Swing) and J’Kobe Wallace.
Nick Fradiani dazzles as a dead ringer for Neil’s distinctive raspy, smokey baritone recreating his electric stage appearances. Lisa Renee’ Pitts is a solid dramatic anchor as the Doctor. The show also features powerful performances from Hannah Jewel Kohn and Tiffany Tatreau, who complement an energetic and engaging ensemble.
Step into a living juke box of Americana with A Beautiful Noise: The Neil Diamond Musical. It’s the perfect prescription to drown out the noise of the evening news and turn on the joie de vivre (the joy of living), the joy that Neil Diamond continues to bring with this theatrical recreation of his life and career.
Los Angeles fans may get a surprise appearance from Mr. Diamond either via facetime or he may sing from the audience with the finale. One never knows, either way it’s a good bet to be in a seat when the curtain goes up. You won’t stop bopping in your seat until the curtain goes down!
A Beautiful Noise is written by book author and four-time Academy Award nominee Anthony McCarten, with music and lyrics by Neil Diamond. The musical is directed by Tony Award® winner Michael Mayer with choreography by Olivier Award winner Steven Hoggett.
