Agreed! Maybe I went into the show as a pessimist.. but it has it's own life. Regina (Louderman) and Janis (Weed) definitely blew me away at their vocals. WOW! All leads are strong and ensemble is great.. definitely a light, poppy, bubbly show. I thought Louderman definitely deserved the Tony nom!
If this makes you feel any better, I just saw mean girls last week and sat in the very top back row in the mezz. I still thought it was good seating. Because of this shows choreography, you can really see and appreciate overall effects and dynamics up there. All I'm saying is that there are no bad seats in that theater for that particular show! Enjoy!! :)
