Melanie Gall Presents (2)—MTYP – Mainstage

I thought the singing and acting was fantastic, the flow between music and scene was very smooth, and she transitioned with grace and ease. The only thing that took me out of the performance were the tech issues and a couple of flubbed lines, but she handled them like a champ and pulled through with a great performance.
