To call Lady Gaga’s long-awaited show at a sold-out Wrigley Field on Monday a high-level production would be a gross understatement. In a performance for the ages, the pop phenomenon presented a multipart spectacle in which each act revolved around an unspoken theme and contributed to a loose narrative that witnessed the singer journey from literally being trapped to becoming liberated.

...

An incredible sound system, revolving platform, large second stage, high-def screens, enormous flame plumes and prerecorded interlude videos complemented an entourage of skilled dancers, choreographed routines and Gaga’s now-trademark outrageous costumes. Another equally important detail that all major pop artists should heed but frequently forsake: a versatile backing band.

...

Through it all, Gaga remained thoroughly herself: a brilliant performer with a singular identity whose music, lyrics and imagery conveyed universal messages. As she advanced from the dark into the light — enduring various struggles, opening up to vulnerability, embracing independence, daring to be herself and ultimately finding catharsis — it all circled back to a question Gaga posed midway through the event: “Have you ever had to battle for your life?”

...

Allowing her jazz instincts to take control, she effortlessly improvised melodic lines and changed up phrasing. Stripped of accompaniment, Gaga communicated with conviction and naked sensitivity. Grit formed on her lower register; her falsetto traveled to beautiful regions. She handled soaring passages as proficiently as strains that demanded delicacy and restraint.

As she probed and retraced the contours of familiar songs, balladic renditions of “Always Remember Us This Way” and “The Edge of Glory” exposed another facet of Gaga: that of a gospel singer in hiding.

Is there any kind of music Gaga cannot conquer? She’s born that way, indeed.

Hollywood may have borrowed her for a while, but music has its leading lady back. And after a four-year break, Lady Gaga is showing how a pop star is reborn, in this case via The Chromatica Ball tour.

...

That’s the beauty about Gaga. Her authentic human connection precedes any of her made-up characters. No matter what otherworldly getup she might don next, it’s really to tell her fans they, too, can be anything they want to be.
