This scene that offers no backstory or complicated history lends more to the "play" than any of the melodrama, which is drowned out by the lyrically strong and wailing melodies.Try your search in the crossword dictionary! **** - musical interlude. Amendola owns the role, taking it where he wants to: improvising lines, stealing the scene during one of Perez's numbers, and even making the members in the band laugh. Providing the most comic relief, all-thumbs Aidan persistently hits on a girl who persistently pushes him away. Some of the best material can be credited to Michael Amendola, who plays Aidan. (Even Cher could learn a thing or two from Perez's young, less quaky singing.) A couple of candy-covered tunes that feature the wholesome observations of a woman who has seen her share of love and loss really liven up the stage.Īfter Hilton wrote the music, the rest of Gobotrick came in to add the characters. April Perez may look like a little girl wearing a fancy doily and boots, but she belts like Sheryl Crow and Cher combined. (Maybe it's his glasses.) With the other two musicians in the band also sporting glasses, T-shirts, and jeans, they make for a nerdy trio that clashes with the young woman who exudes sex at the mic.
