#25re:bit of a spoiler below
Posted: 2/3/05 at 2:52pmI will definetly fly into NY when it arrives, to see it. I saw the original cast on Broadway and loved it. I have yet to hear if Sondheim has seen it and if he liked it. This version looks great.
Just give the world Love.

After having been extended for three weeks, this production will close on Saturday, Feb. 5th.
It got some pretty good reviews but I've not heard what Sondheim thought about it.
THE EVENING STANDARD: "As sharp as ever...The versatility on offer is spectacular.."
THE INDEPENDENT: "Wonderfully fresh and fierce small-scale version."
THE GUARDIAN: "strong on melodramatic horror, low on social resonance."
DAILY TELEGRAPH: "Superbly inventive staging."
THE TIMES: "Theatrical originality and a successful awakening of the audience’s imaginations."
"Smart! And into all those exotic mystiques -- The Kama Sutra and Chinese techniques. I hear she knows more than seventy-five. Call me tomorrow if you're still alive!"

Posted: 2/3/05 at 4:36pmCan't wait.....$100 to hear amateur musicians play one of Sondheim's more intricate scores.

Posted: 2/3/05 at 5:07pmIt put me in the mind of the 1998 Revival of Cabaret, in that it was so gritty and kinda had a "gothic" looking. Anyone else get this impression?
