"...Bold, fresh and reinvigorated, Gigi is a charming and visually-stunning show that, like champagne, bubbles and simmers, flowing effervescently with splendor and elegance."

"...The Kennedy Center's production of Gigi is lovely to look at and charming to listen to, but the show never achieves the transcendence that one would wish for with this material."

"...Thank heaven for grand old musicals. A brilliant score and a new production polished like a jewel give this revival of Lerner and Loewe’s Gigi the attention it deserves."

"...The producers have cast Vanessa Hudgens-a graduate of Disney Studios "High School Musical"-in the starring role, obviously with an eye to appealing to a younger, contemporary audience. Hudgens-small, dark-haired, nimble, energetic and appealing-handles the role with enthusiasm. She's that high-strung young adolescent who carries authenticity around as if it were part of her quaint school uniform."

"...The glitz, the glamour, the stars, the music, costumes and set is everything that a Broadway hit demands. Remember where you heard it folks. Go see this one here while it is in DC before it wins the Tony Awards in every category and becomes the impossible $200 ticket to get!"

Vanessa Hudgens is a brief breath of spring amid this harsh winter as the spirited gamine Gigi in a new, Broadway-bound production of the Lerner and Loewe musical Gigi now underway at the Kennedy Center under the direction of Eric Schaeffer.
