The tickets are available at Tickets4Musical at a very admirable discounted rate. Get yours soon or else they’ll be sold out.

More Creatives than Creativity!

Coming back to the music there is much in its creative team than the overall production. The cast creative includes Tony Award-winning team of writers Joe Dipietro and David Bryan, Tony winner Director Christopher Ashley. Other than that, the fascinating choreographer and a Tony nominee Kelly Devine and music director Ian Eisendrath.

The cast doesn’t disappoint either: the mesmerizing star from the “Kinky Boots” and “American Idiot”, Jeanna de Waal plays ever-deviant Diana. The hunk both in acting and personality, Roe Hartrampf plays charming Prince Charles. The best known Broadway actor from the musical Grey Gardens Erin Davie takes the role of zesty Camilla Parker Bowles. Last but not least the remarkable Judy Kaye as formidable Queen Elizabeth.

As said by Ashley himself, and assembled of “extraordinary cast and creative team”. 

What the Story Tells

As already known the musical is a biography of the remarkable women, Princess of Wales “Diana”. Diana, a common girl’s life is about to take a total flip when she gets married to Prince Charles. Unexpected betrayal and Policies turn her into the woman the world admires.

The musicals cover this phenomenal personality’s life from the point of her marriage to her death. And at a rather rapid pace at that. There is so much to cover and the musical always seems to miss the point by an inch. Through her overnight gained fame and glamorous life, Diana surprised everyone with her strong persona. Contradicting her otherwise weak and frail-looking attire.

Diana the Musical: Critical Views 

Despite the fact, that the subject chosen for the musical is extraordinary the production came up with a version that was truly unexpected and unappreciated in so many ways. Let’s see what the critics had to say about the “Diana – The Musical” and then contemplate.

Charles McNulty of LA Times: 

Charles did a really long, thorough examination and he expressed his views saying: The cast managed to deliver a truly modern Broadway Paradox. The paradox is that the musical is “competent and completely unconvincing.” Seeing how it made it to Broadway after such poor delivery of a widely known figure. We can’t help but agree with the comment. Another of his comments that fits right into the bill is that Diana “turns a complicated life into light entertainment”.

James Herbert of San Diego Tribune:

James while praising the wonderful actress de Waal said that she deserves the tiara she wore in the production. However, the production, “Diana” on the other hand could use some effort for its “full-throttle commitment to its elusive subject”.

Christopher Smith of OC Register:

Christopher says of the songs, “first act songs convey Diana’s dreams” and ends his review with “the numbers have a B-side arrangement’s lack of impact.”

Deborah Wilker of The Hollywood Reporter:

He says “Despite its flaws – there is an earnestness about Diana.”

Final Words:

Agreeing with Deborah’s comment “Diana” has its own charm. The wit and humor implied by the creative are worth mentioning. It fills up the gap and gives us a show worth the ticket price.
