Terrific! I know the stage color cannot be changed, but if the backdrop were white, or yellow or something other than black, there would be enough contrast to see the dancers' dance steps -- especially Vereen 'cause he's so good! A backdrop of a different color (even a light grey) would make it far easier to see Fosse's choreography. With the black backdrop and stage, all the dancers -- Vereen especially -- blend into the surroundings making it difficult to watch with ease imo.
Ben Vereen is a NATIONAL TREASURE! JFM!
I love Ben Vereen - I saw him at London Palladium in the 70s and I'm still trying to work out how he can hover in the air! Wonderful.
Terrific!
