Hershey Felder In Maestro: the Art of Leonard Bernstein Tickets

After seeing Felder's Gershwin show, I was looking forward to seeing him perform another one-man show...and the wait was well worth it. Felder perfectly captures Bernstein and convey's the Maestro's emotions, traits, habits, and dreams with the audience, just as if we were listening to Bernstein himself. As always, the music is wonderful and breaks up the dialogue just the right amount of times. The beginning is a little slow (and with a very Jewish theme, which is required to fully understand Bernstein but can catch some people off guard) but it picks up beautifully. A must-see performance!

Hershey Felder presented a compelling picture of Bernstein's life from his earliest days to his NY Phil debut to his family, dreams and disappointments. Hershey has amazing talent as an actor, musician, story teller and dramatist. I still think is incredible when Lenny was asked to look at a symphonic score and play a few pages at the piano, which he did. If you are a Bernstein fan, get a ticket fast. You will not be disappointed.

Outstanding one-person production of the life and music of Leonard Bernstein. Hershey Felder is a truly marvelous actor, singer, pianist, writer.

one of the best shows I've ever seen. He is amazingly talented.

Maestro was a disappointment. I'm a Felder fan, but it felt like he didn't really have enough material to work with. The piano playing was limited, and I could swear I heard music even when Hershey Felder wasn't near the keyboard... but that could of been my imagination. Basically, the play was boring, I slept through most of it. My recco - skip it.

Best show Hershey has done. What is he going to do next to top this?

Very talented and entertaining. I read his biography before his death and this performance enhanced the details.

Great one man show ! Terrific music and story telling. Hershey makes Bernstein come alive. I remember Bernstein's Sunday night TV show and the young peoples concerts. He was a true celebrity conductor who brought classical music to the masses. Took my kids ages 14 and 17, they loved it as well.

This is the third of Mr. Felder's shows that we have seen and have thoroughly enjoyed them all. Not only are they wonderfully entertaining, but informative as well. He has continued with his portrayal of Leonard Bernstein.

Another amazing performance from Hershey Felder. The presentation was a different format than his previous shows. Still delightful and entertaining, but a little less music. Certainly worth seeing.

Felder once again (after Gershwin, Beethoven and Chopin) delivers a wonderful and moving representation of Bernstein's life. He presents his insecurities and life style choices with compassion. It was a most enjoyable evening.

My wife and I have seen three previous perfomances by Hershey Felder and each time we are amazed and delighted at his presentations and artistic performance. He is truly a wonderful, talented and serious artist that everyone should take the time to see

preferred his Gerswhin show, but this was good. Have to admit that I fell asleep

Mesmerizing thoughout performance. Brilliantly acted and staged. Hershey Felder was Leonard Bernstein. No sign of Canadian accent.

I have seen all of the one-act performances by Mr. Felder. Since this portrayal is of someone I actually remember, It is harder to be objective but he was superb. I was moved to tears several times. I hope he keeps finding these characterizations which show off his multiple talents so well. Thank you, Mr. Felder!

Great show. Hershey Felder never disappoints an audience.

Hershey Felder shows once again that he's a terrific actor, a very good singer and extraordinary piano player. His portrayal of Bernstein is thoroughly riveting, from beginning to end. If you enjoy musical theatre and/or musical history, this show is an outstanding must see!

This show was probably one of the best of the Hershey Felder series of Composers. Gershwin and Bernstein are my favorites. Mr. Felder immerses himself into the character and you truly believe you are the only one in the audience he is speaking too. You really get an inner look into the composer's life and his love for music. I would recommend this performance to everyone who loved Bernstein's musical accomplishments.

Hershey is a talented & passionate performer. He seems to "morph" into the character so well you feel as if you are transported back in time! I have seen all his plays in this sonata and cannot wait for more! he truly loves his work!

From beginning to end this was an incredible performance. We have seen and loved his other one man shows, but this one was the best. He received a standing ovation and the audience was yelling Bravo at the end. What an exciting and informative program. Hershey Felder is so talented and you can clearly tell, he loves his work. I could not stop thinking about the performance the next day. I grew up watching Leonard Bernstein's children's concerts on TV on Saturday mornings and it was so special for me to attend this performance. Not to be missed.
