When We're Together, I Feel Like a Feather


It's impossible to say anything bad about Becky Stark simply because whatever she does is inexplicably mesmerizing. So it was on Saturday that the Princess of World Peace debuted her new whimsical musical "The Most Beautiful Show That Ever Lived" in front of an over-capacity crowd at the Steve Allen Theatre.

Basically done in the form of little one-scene skits in between one-song interludes, Stark and her cast (including Miranda July and dancers Eleni Mandell and Paloma Parfrey) played along with perfect elementary school articulation. We're not nearly smart enough to describe what exactly we saw and by the perplexed look of others they didn't really know either. All we know is that we left in a strangely good mood. We also know that magic is kind of like balancing.

I'm glad I'm not the only one who can't put their finger on what exactly Becky Stark is all about. She certainly does have a beautiful voice.
