A weekend of weddings on broadway for All_For_Laura

Friday night started it all off with a trip to the Marquis for The Drowsy Chaperone. Brilliant as always, this show shines. Bob Martin delivers a stellar performance. Sutton shines vocally and as character. Beth is perfect! Troy, Eddie, Lenny, The Kravits's, and the rest of the boys were terriffic! Danny Burnstein is hilarious! Georgia and Eddie do a spectacular job. I was so pleased. I laughed and cheered all night! There was not a dull moment in the show! And, don't forget the incredible Kecia, who delivers a lovely "I do, I do in the sky!" Stagedooring was a blast! I met everyone minus Georgia, Sutton, and Beth who decided not to show up. 5 stars! Amazing! Brilliant! Superb! Go see it now if you haven't yet!


I wish today was just as exciting and amazing as Drowsy...Unfortunately, with many apologies to friends and fellow users who LOVE it, The Wedding Singer ranks in my book as the worst musical of the season. Not only are the music and story terrible, low brow, and unintelligent, the cast is not desirable at all. Laura Benanti is dull and sings moderately well. Mind you, I have seen her in Nine, which she was also terrible in, and Into the woods, which she was great in! She bored me, and my family. Stephen is a great actor. He plays the part well and has a nice voice, but nothing much other than that. Although Amy has a great voice, she just didn't do it, and she was flat A LOT today. The strongest actor with the best voice was Felicia Finley, who unfortunately only appears twice in the show. The rest of the cast is undesirable, performing in a below top notch show. I went in totally open-minded, but I just thought it was terrible. I haven't seen something so bad in a while. But, the audience loved it and it was a full house, so good for the cast! A lot of cheers happened throughout the show. I did not stage door, because I was so unimpressed and had no one I was anxious to meet. One star.

Had a very fun weekend, but The Wedding Singer is not for me. Pictures from Drowsy will be up soon! Hope you are all enjoying your weekends!
...What happened next, was stranger still, a woman breathless and afraid, appeared out of the night, completely dressed in white. She had a secret she would tell, of one who had mistreated her. Her face and frightened gaze, my mind cannot erase...But then she ran from view. She looked so much like you...

I just don't understand. I equally loved both shows. They were my favorite two of the season! You had a great time at Drowsy...but not at Wedding Singer! umm... try kevincahoon.net he played George, I think he's got a great band!

c'mon Its Your Wedding Day and Saturday Night in the City where awesome! (and the name escapes me) but I loved the duet Rob and Julia sing (not "grow old with you" a different one)

This is coming from someone who loved THE WOMAN IN WHITE.

Not to insult her...but we see what happened to that show and the reviews it got.

Don't take her advice. Don't take reviewers' advice.

Go see the shows and make up your own mind.

I did.

And I had a blast at THE WEDDING SINGER.

I know the duet you are talking about. They can harmonize nicely, but the music is terrible. I haven't heard such bad music in a while, and we have had some flops this year. I just did not like it.

Well, if we could all get such bad reviews, the world would be much happier!

I am nice! hehe. I like almost every show I see, so it is a rare treat to have a show I don't like and can be negative about, but I am never too too negative. And Woman in White was incredible IMO. ALW creates beautiful melodies with intelligent lyrics from Zippel. We are all entitled to our own opinions, and I am posting mine.

P.S. I am a guy.

well, nice little reviews All_For_Laura, glad you at least enjoyed DROWSY! I can't wait to see it next month! I don't know about WEDDING SINGER yet, I haven't got the cast recording yet, so I have no opinion on it :)

Interesting tid-bit: The first technical difficulty with the plane happened on Friday night. Kecia told me it was delayed for rising.

Also...Comment on my Lestat Icon:

Although, Lestat is in no way perfect, At least that cast was cloyed with talent that sung some beautiful music.

The lack of talent and good music in TWS is where an argument can be started here, but lets not. re: A weekend of weddings on broadway for All_For_Laura

Sorry about the gender confusion.

But I have to say, THE WEDDING SINGER is far from the worst musical of the season.

Well IMO, for me, out of the many I have seen this season it was the worst. I am sure if I saw Hot Feet, that view would quickly be changed. Lol

Okay....that's good?

Is there realy a need to tell me that not as many people agree with me? I already know my opinion of the show doesn't match many.
