Review – Tarzan

I’ll keep this short and sweet:

I saw the Disney movie Tarzan when it first hit theaters back in, oh, 1999, thought it was so-so, but had heard incredible things about the stage production, so I was interested in going.  And as a fan of the Pittsburgh Musical Theatre’s Facebook page, I was seeing photos and videos that were just too enticing for me to ignore.  So…Saturday night I saw the show at the Byham Theatre.
