The delightful family musical is now opening on Broadway at the Cort Theatre after a successful engagement at the New Victory Theatre late last year.

 Aisle Say (NY): LAUGH WHORE   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-05)
And I mean that literally: he shouted, capered, ran about, offered slyly subversive digs, referenced musicals that were unlikely to be in a kid’s radar (like "Sunday in the Park with George") and all-in-all presented the most flagrant moving target for any TV critic I’ve ever seen.
I apologize for the way the above may sound, but Cantone has often described himself theatre queeny (he flaunts it even in his current show), and unless you’ve seen him in action, you may not fully understand the abrasively strident intensity of his persona.
Another point in his favor is that he’s a friend of the theatre, a lover of the theatre, as ragingly a liberal art-lovin’ New Yorker as he is a comedy land mine, and that is strangely, loudly endearing.
