"In theater, the process of it is the experience. Everyone goes through the process, and everyone has the experience together. It doesn't last - only in people's memories and in their hearts. That's the beauty and sadness of it. But that's life - beauty and the sadness. And that is why theater is life." - Sherie Rene Scott

yea i didn't really like "Call me Madam" either..
"The Producers" wasn't what i thought it was going to be. The score is really what does it for me in a musical and I just didn't like it. The show also, it just didn't work.
I don't hate "Urinetown" but i just have no desire to see it again

Posted: 6/26/06 at 4:28amWhy do you guys hate these shows? It might be more interesting to discuss why people disliked things. I don't think I've seen a Broadway show that I've ever really hated...though I was definitely a little disappointed in Rent when I finally saw it last year.
