Review: Anthony Fedorov and Diana DeGarmo in Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat

Unfortunately, sound issues plagued the Anthony Fedorov and Diana DeGarmo top-billed show in Oklahoma. I heard that the Anthony Fan Club people went to watch. Was the sound really that bad?

From NewsOK:

But of far greater concern is the fact that the cast’s efforts are often compromised because of excessive amplification. Can you imagine devoting two weeks to rehearse a show only to have your musical contributions rendered unintelligible?

In the role of the narrator, DeGarmo has a nice pop-inflected voice that works well for this type of show. But each time she sang with any intensity, her lyrics were all but incomprehensible. Fedorov’s attractive voice also lends itself to this music, most impressively in "Close Every Door,” one of the musical’s few calm moments. The pair’s success on "Idol” helped pave the way for musical theater opportunities. Talent and perseverance will see that their efforts continue to get noticed.
