Yes, Groff was great. Or is the Bowl too large of a venue for a show like this? Or possibly I'm not a raving Sondheim fan. All the songs sounded alike and sort of 'thin' as others have mentioned.

Truly amazing how rude the audience can be -- lots of people facebooking or checking their phones during the show. Rude to fellow audience members and to the performers even if they can't see you.

I watched and loved Monday's live streaming of the Hillary benefit.

Is it available to watch again or buy (as a donation)? Thanks!

I recently discovered and am loving 'Behind The Curtain'. The hosts are very enthusiastic and entertaining. I always have homework after and have a list of YouTube videos they've suggested or mentioned which I need to watch. Wish I had more time to get caught up and listen to all their shows. 

I loved this! The music, the chorus, the dancers and of course the leads’ voices were great. I couldn’t understand most of what they said, but it didn’t matter. I’m glad I saw this.

Smart idea to read the synopses. And I am glad to hear they are costumes and dancing. Amazing what they do for just a two night event. (I guess I'm a bit of a philistine because the ninety-minute running time is also a plus vs. three hours at La Boheme.)

Now I'm really looking forward to it.

Thanks for the comments!

I know nothing about opera but love this cast. I'm in NY for another week -- should I see this or La Boheme?

I watched a clip of and I'm worried I might need subtitles. (Yes -- English is my native language.)

Any thoughts?
