With his cheeky Northside timbre and a joie de vivre of "wilde" abandon, Gilna's sole performance in New York was an irresistible joy to see. Glowing with wit and goodness, he charmed the crowd with rollicking laughter, and made us believe in a vision of life on the other side of trauma. The thunderous applause at his standing ovation showed Gilna's "A Bolt From D'Blue" was an emphatic victory on the evening, and we'll look for more performances from him to follow.'
