HELLO AGAIN! is solid entertainment because Linden Waddell clearly has great reverence for Allan Sherman’s material and genuine stage presence. Many of the song parodies she performs, like the forgotten “Chopped Liver” (a dead-on spoof of “Moon River”), weren’t among Sherman’s most successful but they work wonderfully with a live audience. Never heard of Allan Sherman? No matter; nor had many of the young people in the audience (apart from maybe “Hello Muddah, Hello Fadduh”) but they clearly had a great time.

A thoroughly delightful combination of intelligence and wit, honoring the zany spirit of Allan Sherman, brought to life by a superb singer-actress who understands wry and understatement.

An energetic journey through Allan Sherman's oeuvre. Great pairing of talented singer with a skillful accompanist. History on Sherman is woven in between the songs. Even if you don't know who Allan Sherman is, you can still appreciate the effectively delivered broad, Jewish humor....
