Is Anyone All Right?

De: Thomas F. F. Snyder

Narrado por: Michael Langsner

In this musical romantic comedy, with actors, singers, and full orchestra, meet Emily who may or may not be with the right guy. She gets plenty of time to wonder about him as he haunts the pub where she works. Meet Ben, a twenty-something teacher who may one day find the courage to approach the miraculous beauty studying at the back of that pub. And meet Pablo, the handsome and awkward Spaniard, an unlikely hero who puts the pub back in post-puberty-based musical romantic comedies.

This charming and witty AudioMusical™ was written by the creator and musical director of the Emmy and Peabody award-winning Dr. Katz: Professional Therapist on Comedy Central.

Worth it

Super fun and unique idea to make an audio musical. Fun plot and characters. Short enough to listen to in a few hours, so it's perfect for a short road trip.

A romance with a twist of rhyme

Would you listen to Is Anyone All Right? again? Why?

I would listen to 'Is Anyone All Right' again just for the songs and the accents. Do you like Richard Rogers? Then you will like this. The songs stay with you after the credits.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Is Anyone All Right??

The 'Aha' moment when I began to wonder just who was falling for whom.

What does Michael Langsner bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

Michael does a nice job making the story flow from song to dialog and back.

If you could take any character from Is Anyone All Right? out to dinner, who would it be and why?

I want to take Ben out to dinner and give him a good talking-to.

Any additional comments?

Mr. Snyder has perfectly captured the romantic feel of some of the classic musicals by combining lush, melodic arrangements with clever lyrics. The songs reveal some of the thoughts and feelings that nicely round out the characters and bring the story to life.

Audio musical? What's that?

"Is Anyone All Right?" is truly a unique experience. Part stage play, part audio book and with heaping helpings of the humor, natural dialogue and compelling characters Tom Snyder's works are known for, this is a must-listen for anyone who likes to laugh, has questions about love, or just isn't sure of the answer to the question: "Am I OK?"

A light hearted romantic musical that sure to tickle your funny bone and put a smile on your face.

Funny, entertaining, endearing, and the perfect ending. A light hearted romance for, well, anyone.

The music was especially good. It gave the listener a nice little reprieve to just sit back, relax and and enjoy the song without concentrating on the storyline for fear of missing something important. The timing was perfect. I could see this or others by Thomas F. F. Snyder as a series or podcast.

Exceptional Character, Plot, & Music Craftsmanship

Each character is unique and interesting. Well structured plot with especially strong dialog. Songs, all solos, fit right in.

A touching reflection on love and obsession

I really enjoyed all the characters - very believable and sympathetic - and the story was romantic and absorbing. The songs were a plus, and an ingenious use of audiobook format!

Like friends

I'm listening for the third time and yet keep expecting the story to continue. The characters are friends and left me wanting more. Funny, clever, sweet--my commute flies by in the best of company.

Great Innovation

Loved the combination of music and story telling with different narrators. A funny and sweet romance.
