School Girls; Or, The African Mean Girls Play Newark Theatre reviews
2 Masters still rocking it
AWESOME review show Everything about this! Carole King and School Girls; Or, The African Mean Girls Play still sound as smooth and strong as ever. Great chemistry together they had. Spot on were their bands and back-up singers. After another of favorites, the set list was one. The perfect stage set up was in the round stage that rotated slowly. Added to the enjoyment were the video screens and camera shots. Really, it was one of the best concerts we've ever seen. Not a glitch in the show. The two obviously admire each other so much and played off each other really well. Carole's energy and enthusiasm really electrifying were. The moments of higher energy and had the place rocking with "Natural Woman" and "Earth Move" she had some of. No complaints at all.
