: The annual Encores! series of staged concert readings, produced every year by City Center in Manhattan, is no stranger tosuccess: After all, it’s where the current “Chicago” – now the longest-running show on Broadway – got its start.
This season, Encores! spawned two serious contenders that are sure to score nominations: “Into the Woods,” in a warm staging of the Sondheim favorite with a stacked cast of Broadway names, and “Parade,” reviving the well-regarded Jason Robert Brown musical in an illuminating new version with a strong cast led by Ben Platt and Micaela Diamond.
Both shows boast big, lush orchestras – and the same is true of “Sweeney Todd,” which brings back Sondheim’s beloved penny dreadful with a notably hefty band of musicians and an ensemble of strong singers led by Josh Groban and Annaleigh Ashford. The latest staging of “Camelot,” with a new book by Aaron Sorkin, was less favorably received overall, but it’s impeccably appointed and beautifully played by another large-scale orchestra. It seems poised to nudge out the other eligible titles in this category, “1776” and “Dancin’,” neither of which were universally adored.
