I really wish Real Women could turn it around, but it’s just not happening sadly. 

My favorite part of the year…! I’m hoping for more older shows than the likes of Ragtime and Urinetown this year. 

Expecting and hoping for raves. 

Saw this on Thursday and walked out absolutely in love. I am amazed at how great this was. It really did shoot to my top pick for best new musical. I need to see it again.

I saw this on Friday as well, loved it. Very thought-provoking and heartbreaking. I felt like I learned a lot about Hasidic Jewish culture by watching this which was fun. 
 

I highly recommend, but do echo that they were working through a lot of things. My friend saw it on Sunday and they said that the things that I had worries about on Friday were already seemingly fixed so that’s good news. I’d like to go back post-opening. 

Sorry to double post… more thoughts. 
 

I am really just so confused on why they highlighted the mayor of NYC as the main conflict of the show instead of Betty’s whole dimension being wiped out. 
 

Also, the sister being hyperfixated on Betty Boop is very weird and not accurate for a cartoon that hasn’t had relevancy in decades. Even the world building of the show didn’t help with that. 

I loved GATSBY: An American Myth. One of my favorite shows of last year. 

STAND BEHIND ME LEGALLY BLONDE!! 

Maybe Happy Ending, baby, we are so proud of you. Keep going!!

The fact that Tammy Faye’s balcony is closed for the rest of the run is not a good sign it will sell as well as the first preview, which already wasn’t the best. I wish it well. 

Saw it last night. Don’t feel like fully commenting on a show that isn’t fully ready. During the welcoming speech, Rachel mentioned that the sets were not loaded in and to use our imagination, haha. It was very charming the way she talked about it.

 

As this was their first full run, I thought it was amazing. I really want to go back in a month or two to see how it has improved. Some amazing things being done on that stage. 

I really liked it, probably more than most of the mixed reception and I am not sure if it could win best original score. 

I managed to snag one of the tickets that opened up during the weekend and I am SO glad that I saw it. Truly one of the best things I have seen this year. I will say that I agree that I wish that the friends were more developed, but that is my one gripe?

Time will tell if this year’s few fall musicals will be next to close."

Exactly where my thoughts were. Sad that HLL did $100k+ in sales, but still pulled the trigger. 

I am already not vibing with it, but I love The Great Gatsby. I am going to go in with an open mind. The opening number was very off to me though.
