“Almost Famous”, the 2000 American film written and directed by Cameron Crowe, is a delightful coming-of-age story, a mirthful look at young love and an ode to rock n’ roll. The new Broadway musical, all-too literally based on the movie, is none of the above. Instead, it is a static reproduction of the movie screenplay weighed down by a lifeless, non-original, Broadway-bland, ballad score. That’s both disappointing and surprising, given the sophisticated talent involved.
