Alot still works, and some of the design was lovely. But I guess what burst off the stage at City Center gets a bit swallowed up at Lincoln Center, and i was left cold(er)."

Not trying to invalidate your opinion at all - but I think this may just be a symptom of seeing the show multiple times and becoming more familiar with it. I remember seeing it for the first

When I saw Tutty was on, I was disappointed because I'd rather see a healthy understudy than a struggling actor battling through illness. i was wrong, because while Tutty did seem under the weather to me, he is so charming and uniquely suited to this character, that it was well worth an errant sniffle here and there.

this thread smacks of (b)--not because anyone will ever get me to even thin

this thread is obscene. an offensive post (and im fine debating the merits of that accusation) has yielded vile attempts to *blame Jews for not speaking up in sufficient numbers against Trump* when there is NO religious group more loudly against the regime, when Jews have been the VICTIMS of Trump supporters' violence, when you would NEVER demand Black Americans more loudly condemn Trump because of all the high profile African American supporters he has.
