“The sun broke free from rainy skies just as it neared the dusk’s horizon, putting quite the show. Low clouds hugged the Mendocino coast and higher clouds moved along in the pink evening sky. By the time the sun set just 30 minutes later, nearly every cloud disappeared and the ocean’s big blue sky sunk into nightfall.” – Photographer Bethany Harris

THE REVIEWS:

“History Has Its Eyes On You [now The ALEXANDER Project] captures the spirit of the musical through strong vocals, live and DJ music and hip-hop dance performance.” — Lynn Trimble of the Phoenix New Times.

“They focused instead on songs that people can resonate with today; songs about love, lust, parenthood and the endless and revolutionary impact of immigrants. The show isn’t a performance of the musical, but a celebration of the timeless themes and transcendental music—and performed on a stunning level, of course… I sincerely hope this show returns to Tucson, because it is a hell of a good time.” — Chelo Grubb of the Tucson Weekly.
