I really don't notice it as an audience member and as a performer which in my case is mostly heavy dance roles I attempt to give my all on the matinees and evening performances. There are time when I get a little tired by the end of the evening performance, but I am still giving it my all.

Back in the day when Musicals were really strong in the film business there also was not all this other technology that distracted young people from enjoying a film.

I liked his performance. Yes he was rather young and feminine looking,but I thought he did a good job as the character. His voice I thought was outstanding, noly second to the outstanding vocal performance I thought of by the child who played Toby.

I attended a 5:20 p.m. showing at the local theatre and it was less than half full. I imagine this was because pople were getting out of work just prior to that. This evening performances will probably do much better.

Helena Bonham Carter as Mrs. Lovett was also magnificient and really worked well once again with Johnny Depp on the screen.
As for Alan Rickman in the role role of Judge Turpin he was once again convincing as the evil character. His voice in the song he sang with Jo

Disney's Hunchback Of Notre Dame. I would love to see that on stage. When I was real little I saw an adaptation of it in One of the WDW parks and it was wonderful.
