Brooklyn, even if the ticket was a gift (and I use that term loosely as I imagine most gifts are meant to make people warm and fuzzy).

Well, most of the shows I hated, I saw for free.
But, the one where I want my money back would have to be Movin' Out. My brother had given me one free ticket. I believe that to refuse this from my brother would have been an insult, so I took it. But, my boyfriend wanted to go with me. So, I went to TKTS and bought a ticket for him. Although my bf liked it, he used my brother's ticket, while I (who HATED it) used the TKTS one, so, therfore, I would love my money back.

I have actually never wanted money back to any professional shows I've seen...

High school shows are a WHOLE other story
awkward.

Actually, there are some shows that I didn't like, but I'm glad I saw, such as Bounce and All Shook Up. I don't need a refund from shows like that.

I would like a refund, however, for Notre Dame de Paris and Closer to Heaven.

Not liking a show and saying it sucks are two entirely different things. Grand Hotel is actually a pretty highly respected show among critics and historians.

Pippin, at the Paper Mill Playhouse, was a big stinko. It opened with a fashion show that was shopped by the choreographer's boyfriends boss, some no name designer. After that crap was over you got to see Gregg Barnes' designs, which were super. Some of the cast was terrific (Sara Gettlefinger, Jim Newman) but some were terrible (I heard that Charlotte Rae never really learned her song). The choreography was HORRRRRRRRRRRIBLE...and the direction wasn't much better (Ashford & Johanson).

I attended the opening night of Raquel Welch in Victor/Victoria. Even before her entrance I wanted to run down the street and try to get in to see MasterClass. I thought Ms. Welch would just make theater history but nothing amazing happened...it was just bad bad bad.

I don't know if I'm more annoyed at losing money or six hours of my life!

Godspell, a community theater production. Technically, my grandmother paid for it because I saw it with her, but the actor playing Jesus was HORRIBLE and ruined my opinion of the show. I want the two hours of my life back.

CHICAGO revival, as well. i dont know why, but i hated it. i think maybe because i had fallen in love with the movie before? i dont know, but that show did nothing for me and i couldnt wait for it to be over.

i also did NOT like lion king. but the scenery and costumes and props save it from being hated.
life is PANDEMONIUM.

Shu Q,
How can you say that about Harvey. I loved him in Fiddler.
I admit his voice is unique, but his acting was priceless.
The man was such a gem as a Father.
He cracked me up and made me miss my dad.

Don't get me wrong..I want him to be GREAT! I went in with low expectations though because I didn't want to be diappointed. But I was...I just couldn't help wondering what they were thinking when they cast him. I've been led to believe that I saw him on an off-day because he didn't look like anything I've seen on video or in pictures. 'Rich Man' was so boring..he was grinning like he is in his pictures. I dunno...maybe he was tired. But I definitely felt let down.

Mamma Mia was stupid but I guess it made me feel good and I'm glad I get to have my own opinion on it.

And the Oliver tour was definitely boring. The acting just wasn't there. Except Nancy, she was great and Bill Sykes was pretty good during "My Name"
