Original and Refreshing - A rare jewel!!!

"Bed boys and beyond is a breath of fresh air. I was fortunate enough to see this New Musical Review while on a trip to NYC, and I loved it!! I highly reccomend this CD - you will find yourself humming the songs in no time. The show is witty, thoughtful, touching and real. It speaks to anyone who has been in search of a community of their own - gay or not. The title song, "Bed Boys and Beyond", is adorable, "The Magnet" is a hoot and "May I take your hand" is hopeful and romantic. As a fan of musical theater, I find this to be well worth the money. Buy it!!!"

"Opening in March 2000, Alfredo Alvarez and Jeff Dobbins' BED, BOYS & BEYOND (DINK Records 2001; 49:25) had a four-month run at Greenwich Village's Duplex Cabaret. A musical revue about the daily challenges, compromises and insecurities facing gay men, the tuneful songs make their points through lyrics exhibiting wit and truth in "Here In Chelsea," "Men Seeking Men," "Dance at the Gym," and "The Seven-Week Itch." "Here," "May I take YourHand?" and "Family Values" have warmth and poignancy. These and others are professionally and expressively sung by Chad Miller, Don Brewer, Ryan Perry, Tom Stuart, Jason Ma, James Wesley, and Thomas M. Shultheis, whose credits include numerous roles in regional and Broadway productions. Max O. Preeo,SHOWMUSIC MAGAZINE"

"Mainstream musical theater would be pretty dull without the many contributions made by queer composers. Gay-themed musical revues, such as Bed, Boys and Beyond, are aimed at that specific audience, but aslo have the potential for much broader appeal. Alfredo Alvarez and Jeff Dobbins' songs make the experience as universal as possible, touching on familiar themes - how one defines a lover ("Searchin' For A Euphemism"), our value ( "Gay Today"), love and sex ("Mr. Right," "men Seeking Men," "there's Always Some Guy"), and fitting in ("Here In Chelsea," "The Misfit's Lament," "Coming Out") with a mix of humor and hopefulness. This recording's seven-member cast succeeds in infusing the songs with sparkling energy and genuine emotion. GREG SHAPIRO"
