The Real Kyle McCarren musical review – grief and music help form a community
['Alex Wood']

Self-described as a cross between Jonathan Larson’s tick, tick… Boom!
and the self-referential angst of Bo Burnham, The Real Kyle McCarron sets its sights on lofty comparisons.
All are naturally note-perfect – especially during a heartfelt a cappella number towards the show’s climax.
The key strength of the musical is that the score is stacked with absolute bangers.
Precisely the kind of generous, risk-taking new musical theatre the Fringe exists to nurture.
