When a tunesmith has a highly personal style, the potential exists for the songs to begin to sound alike after the fifth or sixth or even the third or fourth ones.

Marie Antoinette: The Color of Flesh
Review By SAM THIELMAN

"Marie Antoinette: The Color of Flesh" returns to the Gotham stage after a well-reviewed first run last year, but it still needs the help of a dramaturg who's not afraid to employ the guillotine.
