How cute was Muffin Man - a barista in love? Way cute. The musical was put on by the Silly Jazz company and written, directed and produced by Camille Harris, a graduate of the BFA program at Emerson college.
As the title suggests, it is about a barista in love and being a musical, she (Lila) sings her way to admitting and declaring her love for Justin, the muffin supplier for the coffee shop she works for. The songs are all fun and there is much humor sprinkled throughout.
The entire cast is impressive as they belt out one cutesy number after another and not a beat is missed.
"Do you know the muffin man? muffin man, I love you so," Lila sings at the beginning. Lyla is shy and the goal of the musical is for her to 'make him fall in love with you by end of day' declared forcefully by Sadie, her co-worker. Customers, parents and a love interest for Sadie make an appearance singing their needs and wants.
"I'm not steady until I've had my fourth (coffee)" one customer sings.
"Her first bra, her first day, wish it would last and last" sings her parents on an (embarassing) surprise visit at Lyla's barista summer job (before college).
Look forward to a feel good ending.
