Madame Chandelier’s blend of humor, charm, and vocal talent makes this a perfectly odd fringe show that is both lovely and enchanting. A Night at the Opera is a performance that hits all the right notes.

Zak Ghazi-Torbati and Toby Marlow are a superb reincarnation of that most perfect of British traditions, a very funny, perfectly honed, duet of white cis men who use their own experience and privilege to subvert and twist our ideas of outrage, insult and offense.
It’s been quite a while since I’ve failed to connect with a show as deeply as I failed to connect with this one – it might as well have been performed in Lithuanian so little did I appreciate what was happening on stage.
