BWW Review: BEAUTIFUL Lets the Audience Bask In the Fascinating Music of the '50s-'70s
by Jude Buot on June 26, 2019 in Philippines To manage everyone's expectations, "Beautiful: The Carole King Musical" is not entirely about the life and music of the Grammy-winning singer-songwriter.

This is not to accuse that the show's title is misleading ("Beautiful" is a song from her Grammy-winning album "Tapestry"). In fact, the other elements present in the show sufficiently give this production a rightful claim to that adjective in its title. (more...)
