Saw Tuck Everlasting in Atlanta for a pre-Bway run- really did enjoy it though will be shocked if it is a big hit- the music is pretty much forgettable- and the general theme is pretty out there- do not see this one appealing to sophisticated NY audiences- but it was a nice night in a regional theater.
Also for the list, King Charles III at the Music Box, The Gin Game at the Golden, Fool for Love and later Our Mother's Brief Affair at MTC/Friedman, and a Falsettos revival for spring.
