re: BYE BYE BIRDIE first preview...
Let me start out by saying I love "Bye Bye Birdie" and have for years. With that said, I thought this production was absolutely dreadful. It looked pretty and that was about the only good I can say about it. The acting almost all ranged from flat-out mediocre to just bland. There was no energy. The choreography was lackluster. Gina Gershon was awful. Her voice sounded like a dying cat. John Stamos was only slightly better. And Nolan Funk was so boring I barely remembered him as he was on stag...
