If watching decadence is your thing, you’ll be turned on by The Wild Party. If you prefer being in the presence of characters who have redeeming values so you can feel empathy, this is not going to be your show. The singers, actors, dancers, and the musicians are top-notch. They reach levels of excellence that far exceed those of college students. But, what else can you expect? They are part of the respected and oft-revered Baldwin Wallace Musical Theatre Program. Bravo!

Bottom Line: The Wild Party is not a feel-good cheerful story, but what makes this simply plotted musical stunning is that everyone at the party turns out to have a great voice and to be an amazingly good dancer. From the opening numbers, when the onstage guests assemble, to the last jazzy note that leaves even audience members quick-stepping home, it’s a celebration that invites the audience in.
