The show also allows Ms. McCleskey to sing a rocking version of Aretha Franklin’s “Respect” and Ms. Arnold to play the saucy seductress on LaBelle’s “Lady Marmalade.” Both are great fun, as is the antic “Proud Mary” performed by DeAnne Stewart, another backup singer. (Rahmel McDade, who gets no big solo, alas, rounds out the singing staff.) #MightyReal #Sylvester #OffBroadway #StClements #review #NewYorkTimes
