Elton John’s irresistible songs are the highlight of this big, bold, metaphorically shoulder-padded musical, which also features a star turn from Vanessa Williams as Miranda Priestly, wintry supremo of Manhattan fashion magazine Runway.
The tunes, from disco to power pop to Broadway homage, are draped in witty lyrics by Shaina Taub and Mark Sonnenblick, and belted out by a glamazon cast in a ritzy, glitzy production by director and choreographer Jerry Mitchell that conquers the cavernous Dominion.
