Go! review

If you're looking for scintillating insights on the battle of the sexes (yes, it still rages), then "I Love You, You're Perfect, Now Change" probably isn't the place to go.

The musical revue takes a tired-but-true look at the battle, keeping it very much in the man-Mars/woman-Venus vein.

Unless you don't know that women like to shop and go to tear-jerking movies, that men like sports and action/adventure flicks, and that couples get goofy when they have a baby, there's not much to learn here (Hope I didn't spoil it for you).

The upside is that the show is nicely produced (with the exception of some technical issues on opening night) and beautifully sung, the cast led by Bob Walton, who might be remembered by Cincinnati audiences as Pseudolus in the Playhouse's production of "A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum" a few years back.

While some of the comedy is over-done, better placed on sketch comedy show than the legitimate stage, there's also a poignant moment where a woman creates her first dating video that strikes a few emotional nerves.
