"The cast work best singing in harmony which, like the dancing we saw only in the finale, is inexplicably rationed out parsimoniously."

Lost in Theatreland (UK)
June 8th, 2023

This is a musical with huge potential. The score, by Calista Kazuko Georget, is captivating, and really drives the piece. Stephanie Martin’s script has some really powerful dialogue, though it struggles in its more soapbox-y moments. The score echoes the rhythms and harmonics of 1930s Germany whilst remaining true to its musical theatre form, and they give us one of the strongest act-one finishes I have seen in a new musical.

"'Fury and Elysium' provides a glimpse into the vibrant icons of Weimar Berlin, albeit with plenty of room for improvement...The lack of a cohesive plot leaves the production searching for a more defined purpose...With further refinement, this production still has the potential to truly captivate audiences and immerse them in the essence of Weimar Berlin’s tumultuous world."
