Joy: A New True Musical @ the Laura Pels Theatre
The Play: Joy; a bio-musical about the inventor of the Miracle Mop that aspires to be an inspirational tale about an everyday woman doing something extraordinary
Book by: Ken Davenport Music & Lyrics by: Annmarie Milazzo Directed by: Lorin Latarro
One good thing: Betsy Wolfe is simply terrific, bringing her innate charm and radiant voice to the title role
One not-so-great thing: Unable to avoid the usual rags-to-riches clichés, the show is more well-meaning than well-done and it’s hard to get worked up about a mop, even though a few are given away—Oprah-style—to some audience members
