After reading the premise, I’m bummed I’ll be missing this by a few weeks. It looks really interesting, and I LOVED Anoushka when I saw Oklahoma last year

The idea is to work and to experiment. Some things will be creatively successful, some things will succeed at the box office, and some things will only - which is the biggest only - teach you things that see the future. And they're probably as valuable as any of your successes. -Harold Prince
Anouska was INCREDIBLE in Oklahoma - one of those rare moments where it feels like a genuine new sound/voice/style we've never heard before on stage. And of course Ramon always delivers. Some of the creatives behind this seem impressive too. I'm trying not to get too excited after being disappointed so much with the last time we had a hyped new musical, 'Opening Night', in London. But this sounds amazing!!!
"You can't overrate Bernadette Peters. She is such a genius. There's a moment in "Too Many Mornings" and Bernadette doing 'I wore green the last time' - It's a voice that is just already given up - it is so sorrowful. Tragic. You can see from that moment the show is going to be headed into such dark territory and it hinges on this tiny throwaway moment of the voice." - Ben Brantley (2022)
"Bernadette's whole, stunning performance [as Rose in Gypsy] galvanized the actors capable of letting loose with her. Bernadette's Rose did take its rightful place, but too late, and unseen by too many who should have seen it" Arthur Laurents (2009)
"Sondheim's own favorite star performances? [Bernadette] Peters in ''Sunday in the Park,'' Lansbury in ''Sweeney Todd'' and ''obviously, Ethel was thrilling in 'Gypsy.'' Nytimes, 2000
