Boyband premieres as a 90-minute parody of the 1990s pop phenomenon identified in its title…charting the rapid rise and demise of 4ORCE.
Director Jason Langley is successful in executing broad comedy while pursuing more sophisticated elements to the satire.
With a cleverly satirical score by Andrew Worboys, and William Forsythe’s choreography delightfully mocking its own clichés, Boyband has commercial potential of its own.
