I saw it last night and was just shocked that this was the new work coming from the BRILLIANT composers of Grey Gardens.
Totally amateurish and puerile. I am so glad I didn't pay for my tickets. I would've left if there was an intermission. I was really disappointed in what I looked forward to being a good, new musical. Unfortunately, Happiness did not leave me happy.
Mundane and hackneyed music and lyrics with a weak, weak book. Too bad these great performers have such te

Alice was ON FIRE! There are some new little changes from DC. Jenn said that they had her go back into the studio to rerecord the new verse in "Just Another Day". The gurnee in "Didn't I See This Movie" was really cool!
Totally Amazing first preview! The whole cast was really alive. Alice will get nominated and hopefully win a tony!

In my opinion, I find Ripley's voice to be rich and full of depth. I love hearing a unique sound, different from the typical Broadway diva. Ever since I first heard Ripley, I fell in love. Her distinct vocal characteristics have always seemed to enhance whatever I've heard her sing, and in a part like this, I find it always so impressive how her voice matches her emotion.

She sings quite well, just wish she could act. Acting is vital for landing roles on broadway.

I will not try to change your opinion, as I believe everyone is entitled to think what they want, but I believe you are misinterpreting this piece of theatre. You feel as though the show was crap because there was no plot, no singing, music, dancing to tell a story. Singing, Music, Dancing is not the sole core of what theatre is. Slava is a clown. His troupe works with clowning. Have you ever studied Artaud? Theatre of the absurd? Artaud points out that movement, light, color, sound can b

Thank You!
I thought this show was brilliant. I couldn't help but think I was watching a Beckett play! I saw it four years ago at the Union Square theatre and remembered loving it then. I love it even more, having watched it this weekend. This experimental clowning, mixed with truly amazing, audience-infused effects really creates a wonderful piece of art. I highly suggest everyone go out and see this production for its short engagement!

I really like many of the changes, although I am not so fond of the cuts of "Perfect for You". I really like that song in its entirety. I am so excited for the 20th! I finally get to see the Arena Version live. I am excited to see how it has changed since off-broadway.

I'm going this Saturday! I cannot wait. I really think it is a splendid theatrical experience. Since seeing it off Brodway 4 years ago, I am excited to witness the differences.

Laura Benanti as Violet would be disastrous (IMO). Vocally, there is no issue, but I simply could not see her playing that part.
