I liked it but I didn't love it. The cast was good, but sometimes I thought the material was slow. I never did care for British humour all that much, so it is probably just me. It was a nice day, and fun to people watch in NYC, though. It was cool to meet Steve again, as well as some new people.

This show is very good, mostly due to the staging and cast. Brooks Ashmashkis is hilarious as usual. I'm a big fan, I think he is a great comdedic actor. I had seen him twice before, both times as a gay guy, in The Ritz and in Present Laughter (he re-interpreted the role of the male fan as gay). He is always over the top, and makes the audience roar. I was wondering if he could pull it off in a straight role, and he did. All his funny faces and body language made everyone giggle....he is perf...

I thought this show was amazing. I really wish them well ! Those kids brought so much youthful energy on stage. I really think they had a good idea to cast teens that were the same age as the characters they were portraying. If you lose a little bit in "polish" you make it up in seeming more realistic. These kids have fantastic voices, and they seem like they are really enjoying it. The show is very light but there is definitely a point the show is trying to make, which is universal, and I th...

oops.

WAT, thanks, it was also great seeing you again as well ! We had a great time also.

I usually don't post on Jay's threads because we usually discuess right after the show and end up agreeing on how we feel about everything, so I don't want to just second everything he says, but this time I have to say I don't agree on a couple things. First of all I really liked Asa Sommers a lot. I thought he had a great voice and did a great job with the part. I thought all the male voices in this musical were just fantastic. I also really liked the set. I thought it worked really, really ...

Jay dragged me to Hartford, and I totally would have skipped Boston's if Miguel didn't decide to come along. I loved Diane White in the show, and could not imagine watching anyone else in that role. I really enjoyed both the new performances of the role, though. Boston's Diane was not as brash, but like Jay said I thought the chemistry between the ensemble was good, not one character dominating the show. I did miss Diane White during a couple lines "SEVEN YEAAARS", and "IN A PLAAAAYYYY", but ...

Hey, I will try to make a "10/10" list Jay style, about what I liked and did not like about the trip, especially for anyone thinking about making a trip to Xanadu--I think it's well worth it, we all had a great time Things I liked 1. Onstage seating-I had seen the show in previews from the audience, and I liked the onstage seating WAY better (I don't think Jay felt the same way, he liked it better from the audience). For me, I was on the side, though, so I could mostly see facial expressions ...

oops...

^^that's nice to know... I am sure J* will be very happy

^ there U R .... a shooting *

Congratulations, fANADU's ! Jaystarr is so happy these last 2 days. I am so happy for you all, you seem great ! I agree taboo (!) We are up for sitting onstage with you guys, but for us it has to be a Sat or Sun matinee, or Sat evening, since we live in Boston; I like your idea though. Let's hope the show runs for a long time....now it looks like it will ! I only saw it once with Curtis, who I though was so good, but Jay went and saw it again when I was working one day-with Cheyenne and I hav...
