“The Original American Idols!”
Hail to Hallie Neill for both her well scripted story and her incredible portrayal of one of the world’s most beautiful, lovable and talented leading ladies. Hallie has such a majestically powerful voice – and yet she reaches high notes with a precision that few performers can achieve today. Complimented by Theodore’s deep baritone voice, so smooth and powerful they create musical history the way it used to be done: au natural, without microphones or amplification!

When today’s popular culture follows the trials and travails of Britney and K-Fed, it is indeed refreshing to revisit the music and popularity of such giants of the silver screen as MacDonald and Eddy.
The delight in this show comes in hearing two splendid singers tackling a catalog of classic songs. Neill and Lambrinos are well-matched both vocally and as actors. The couple, married in real life, bring a delightful chemistry to the stage – ironically creating more frisson than I ever recall seeing from MacDonald and Eddy!
Hollywood legend had it that the pair actually didn’t care for one another, but based on recent biographies, Hallie Neill’s play reveals the couple’s secret love story!
With her clarion, crisp soprano and his powerful rich baritone, Neill and Lambrinos hit all of the right emotional notes and “A Scandalous Affair” revels in the real legacy of MacDonald/Eddy: their music!
