Have you ever felt that your money was not well spent on the show you saw - a show that had little or no redeeming quality at all?
I felt ripped off after seeing:
Bombay Dreams
Mamma Mia
The Boy From Oz comes close, but the performance of Hugh Jackman was a must-see.
All other shows, even if I disliked them, had some element of quality, either is sets, costumes or performances that I felt I wasn't ripped off.
Anyone else?

Yes, and since it closed I can say it:
Wonderful Town (aka: ok village)
Come on now, there wasn't one element of Wicked you enjoyed? Sounds like you are just looking to start another Wicked-based argument.
Too many to count.
Bombay Dreams, Dracula, and Dance of the Vampires come to mind.
How can you not like wicked at all? That's like not possible at all. Not even a little bit.
Dance of the Vampires, Tommy
The recent flop Never Gonna Dance.
And was so very angry that I was trapped where I was seated at BROOKLYN, not only did I feel ripped off, I felt wronged!
A recent production of the Producers. It's really gone downhill since it opened. Or maybe it was just that performance.
"Never Gonna Dance" was quite terrible.
And, like you, I was trapped in the middle of the row for "Brooklyn", or else I would have run for my life!
I am staying far away from Brooklyn!
Seussical.
The Red Shoes and Thou Shalt Not were classics in comparison.
Good idea, Baddadnpa. I only went because I got free tickets due to heavy papering the week before it opened.
You didn't like anything about NGD, m.e.f.?
Just Karen Ziemba, Rath.
BTW, I hated "Thou Shalt Not" when I first saw it, but now I love it due to the cast album, which I listen to all the time.
Right answer, m.e.f.
BTW, Rath, my friend said that "Little Women" sans your fiancee was just awful.
Sorry to hear that.
An exact quote:
"Anne Kanengeiser played Marmee as if she were playing Amanda in The Glass Menagerie, and sings like Beverly Sills being strangled."
Hairspray (I might be in trouble on that one...)
The Producers
Phantom of the Opera
Rent
Not saying I hated them, but was a little disappointed when they were through.
Just me taking up space

Oh my, m.e.f. Oh my my my...it's really too bad Maureen's name isn't above the title so your friend could have exchanged their tix.
Littlefish,
I totally agree when it comes to Phantom. I much prefer the beautiful Yeston and Kopit version.
EDIT: Little Fish, "sans" means without.

It's okay, LittleRathDefender. He got it right. Go back and read his posts again.
