Watching them negotiate each other physically, while trying not to think about the giant magnets sewn into the actresses' underwear, one does not need help to see, or rather feel, the metaphor of human connection and its discontent. Before I get hacked to pieces by an angry mob of Side Show cultists, let me turn to the other half of the show: the one you might call Daisy and Violet. The story of the Hiltons' rise from circus freaks to vaudeville stars in the early 1930s, with all the requisite references to cultural voyeurism and its human costs, is fused to an intimate story of emotional accommodation between sisters as unalike as sisters can be. In any case, you can't get to the first except through the second. But each of them is stuck with obvious outer-story characterizations and laborious outer-story songs; they thus seem like placards. And "I Will Never Leave You, " the size of the statements for once seems earned, as we have learned from the inside to care for the characters. Orchestrations are by Tony winner Harold Wheeler with musical direction by Sam Davis.
The problem with Side Show is that these stories can't be separated, and only one can thrive. That may be because the level of craft just isn't high enough. That one image tells us more about the ordinary humanity of the freaks than all the Brechtian scaffolding. Even the songwriting is of a different quality here: lithe and specific. This part is fiction, or at least conflation. ) Listen to "I Will Never Leave You" below.
Whenever it gets big, it gets banal, with no relationship between the musical idiom and the material. In it, Daisy and Violet, joined at the hip, are placeholders, no different than the human pincushion and the half-man-half-woman and all the others being introduced; it hardly matters what each twin is like individually or what kind of "talent" makes them marketable together. And when they sing together, as in the big ballads "Who Will Love Me As I Am? " Daisy always introduces herself with a confident leaping two-note figure; Violet with a drooping triplet.
The songs, with music by Henry Krieger and lyrics by Russell, have an especially bad case. All the subtlety unused in the big story is lavished here on a believable yet unpredictable arc for the twins. First they are exploited by Auntie, who raised them as peep-show attractions in the back parlor; then by Auntie's widower, Sir, who features them in his circus sideshow. The opening number, "Come Look at the Freaks, " efficiently says it all: "Come explore why they fascinate you / exasperate you / and flush your cheeks. "
Aggressively soliciting your interest and then scolding you for it is therefore a paradoxical and somewhat disagreeable approach, one that Side Show takes so often I began to shut down whenever the meta-material kicked in. All the effort seems to have gone into fashioning big visual payoffs, some of which are indeed jaw-dropping. As Daisy, the more ambitious one, grows sharper and harder with disappointment, Violet, the more conventional one, grows sadder and lonelier — even though it's she who gets married. Davie especially must negotiate an obstacle course of whiplashing emotion; not only does Buddy profess his love to her, but so, too, does the twins' friend Jake, the former King of the Cannibals in the sideshow and now their all-purpose body man.
Their apparent rescue by Terry, the man from the Orpheum circuit, and Buddy, a song-and-dance mentor, only furthers the theme; Terry's eye for the main chance, and Buddy's for a way out of his own sense of abnormality (he's gay), eventually reduce them, too, to exploiters. The music from Side Show is written by Tony nominee and Grammy winner Henry Krieger with lyrics by Tony nominee Bill Russell. Using the format of a musical to explore voyeurism is a complicated business; looking at freaks of one kind or another is part of the contract of showbiz. This tale, quasi-accurate, is told in flashback. ) This seems to have gotten worse, not better, in the revamping. ) Perhaps this was Condon's intention; after all, there is a profound tradition of theater (and film) in which we are not meant to feel directly but to comprehend what the authors have identified as the apposite feeling. But Bill Condon, the film director who conceived the revival and put it on stage, lavishes much more attention on the other.
Whether the freak is a merman or a Merman, all that producers can sell to audiences is the uniqueness of their stars. In the moment of her choice between the gay man and the black man — a choice that naturally implicates the sister beside her — the best threads of the musical tie together in the recognition that though we are all conjoined we are also all distinct. Side Show is at the St. James Theatre. Sometimes a big musical is best when it's very small. Despite a clutch of new numbers, and a thorough shuffling of the old ones, the nearly through-composed score lacks texture.
The plot itself suffers from the rampant musical-theater disease I've elsewhere dubbed Emphasitis, in which the emotional volume is jacked up to the point that everything starts to seem the same. For that we have Emily Padgett and Erin Davie, both thrilling, to thank; stepping into the four shoes of Emily Skinner and Alice Ripley, who played Daisy and Violet in the original, they are as powerful singers and more nuanced actors. Oscar winner Bill Condon directs the upcoming revival. For me, it's the intimate story that deserves precedence; it's far better told. I wish the rest of the show were up to that level, or up to the level of the skilled actors who play the three men: the strapping Ryan Silverman as Terry, the likable Matthew Hydzik as Buddy, the dignified David St. Louis as Jake. Despite what seemed like weeks of buzz about its radical transformations, the revival of Side Show that opened on Broadway tonight is not as meaningfully different from the 1997 original as its current creatives would like to think. The Broadway revival of the Tony-nominated musical, starring Davie and Padgett as the Hilton Sisters, will begin previews Oct. 28 at the St. James Theatre prior to an official opening Nov. 17. As previously announced, the Broadway cast recording of Side Show will be released on Broadway Records in early 2015. Even as the show proceeds, they often remain exhibits in a parable of exploitation.
