‘Providing many of the show’s true highlights, however is the hilarious chameleon Mark Chmiel."

"But a tall, lanky singer/dancer/actor, Mark Chmiel, really sparkplugs the whole evening. Whether kinging, queening or swanning, whether dancing with marvelous grace or impossible faux klutxiness, Chmiel dominates the stage like a reborn Danny Kaye, possessed of body language so witty and subtle that he seems able to dim or raise the lights with a foot turned in or out."

My One and Only

"And as the more mach variation of the old Tommy Tune role, Mark Chmiel is the missing link between the rubber-limbed boisterousness of Ray Bolger and the silken ease of Fred Astaire."
