Beaches the Musical Delivers Sparkle But Struggles to Move the Heart
A vocally dazzling but emotionally thin adaptation of Beaches: The Musical, the show splashes glamour and nostalgia across the Majestic stage while stacking cliché upon cliché in a nearly three-hour run. Jessica Vosk shines, and the young cast gives energy, but the book and score feel dated and overstuffed, leaning on wind-beneath-the-wings grandiosity rather than genuine emotional momentum.
