John Adams said: Personally, I can't wait for the release of the OBC recording! I've only heard two songs but I adore them both.

Seeing an entire show live and on its feet is very different from hearing a few pre-recorded numbers. Personally I agree with many of the sentiments ASOOS04 brought up. It seems strange to me you’re so quick to dismiss others views on the show when you’ve yet to see it yourself. It is maddening to see Broadway producers continue to pour money into awful shows simply because they’re based on existing properties. How many times can this fail before they realize it is not a guarantee for success? The material needs to be there as well and believe me, it isn’t. Hicks is giving a truly abysmal performance. Although I doubt even the best performer could do much with the bland nonsensical role they’ve turned Sugar into. 

Also to touch on what christinelavin said: "I know what I'm about to say may upset many, but there's one thing commenters could do that would take all the differences of opinion to a higher level: use your real names."

This is a ridiculous sentiment. I work in the industry and do not have the luxury of sharing my opinion here under my professional name as I am an actor who cannot afford to have it impact my chances of working. Nothing “negative” I’ve seen in this thread has been personal or uncalled for. This is the place for people to share their opinions on the piece. Everyone is allowed to do so in whatever way they please, even if you don’t agree with them.

Show Score reviews are not an accurate gauge of quality in my opinion. I saw the Music Man revival the night before it opened and was the first person to give it a negative review on Show Score. It was then panned by the critics. And as much as I hated that it was infinitely better than this was. I’d be shocked if this doesn’t open to absolutely abysmal reviews.
