Customer Reviews

Excellent show, excellent DVD!
"Putting It Together" is a gem for any fan of musical theater (especially Sondheim fans). The songs are amazing, and all are beautifully delivered; this is a thoroughly enjoyable DVD. Plus, it has Captain Jack Harkness of 'Torchwood' - what more could you ask for? ;-)

Hilarious and Beautiful
This is a musical delight I can't stop watching and singing along to! The cast is outstanding. Bronson Pinchot and Carol Burnett will have you rolling with laughter (and so will John Barrowman if you watch the outtake!). Witty, well choreographed, and with an intricately-designed set, Putting It Together is one surprise after another. John Barrowman delights with flashy moves and soulful singing, as does Ruthie Henshall, who has shenanigans of her own up her sleeve. Last but not least, George Hearn is spot-on as the aging husband who looks upon his life with some regret over the past, zeal for the present, and hope for the future.

It's a party, and we're all invited!

John Barrowman and Carol Burnett are in great form! the entertaining is great. John Barrowman is great multi-talented entertainer and needs to be reconised more here in the US.
