LMAO…The second best musical winner in a row with a forgettable Tony number and that no one outside of Manhattan will be interested in seeing …Only in NY kids…

This will be generic as hell.It's set in fashion in New York, give me You Are What You Wear style from American Psycho, give me cool, chic, dance style music in the vein of the film using cool songs like Vogue."A shame...Vogue would have made for a killer opening number!
uncageg said: "I don't know why they did it but it just didn't feel right. Plus they had already done it earlier in the show. Dangerous spawned hits and went 8 times platinum in the U.S. alone. Worldwide it sold over 82 million copies."Um...82 million??? lol
The Distinctive Baritone said: "Yeah as much as I likeSix,the only awards it will get nominated for are musical, director, score, orchestrations, and costume design, and it will probably win none of those."And I'm not even sure about Director.
Timon3 said: "Moulin Rouge snatched the much coveted Tony exactly a week earlier. This is the now the one to beat, is anyone going to steal their crown?Very strong reviews." Is there a precedent for a show winning Best Musical and not even being nominated for best direction?
I had a GREAT time! But (not sure if someone mentioned already) take note that Telecharge lists "1h40" as a running time but it was a little more than 2 hrs.
Alright Jordan, I think u sold a couple of tickets on here. Was off my radar completely but will be catching it this wknd...this better be worth it (j/k
pathman2 said: "I was disappointed when I saw Hamilton. Maybe it was overhyped, but I also thought it was overstaged to the point of excess."Thank you.
As a general rule, if a show doesn't have "Hamilton," "Hades," "Six" or "Company" in its title, or has even the slightest tinge of a jukebox, it's screwed.
"I wouldn't sit through it again if they paid me, nor would I call much of it "solid". It is, however, a major stream of revenue for many and a good introduction / gateway to more sophisticated musicals."Comments like these make me miss the tourists more than ever.
