Shows with music by Cy Coleman will not be without gratifying tunes, and Exactly Like You, an updating of Welcome to the Club,is no exception. The same blanket endorsement cannot be extended to A. E. Hotchner, the librettist and co-lyricist.
Still, thanks also to the endearing direction of Patricia Birch, and an eager cast in which Kate Levering and Michael McGrath stand out, you will not be bored. She would be a toothsome and tonic addition to any musical; he is an accomplished farceur for all occasions. But leave any greater expectations at home.
