Saw it tonight. A woman dead center 6th route was filming all of the big numbers in act one. I was seated in the back of the house and could clearly see it. It was quite distracting. And of course, nobody around her said anything. All of a sudden there was an usher running down the aisle and two on the side aisle down to her row. She was about 3 rows right in front of McAnuff. They got her.
Novel, you hit the nail on the head regarding the choreography. I grew up in the 60's and 70's. Their moves were way tighter. They also didn't riff as much.
Lots of talent up on that stage. There were some really good moments. I wish they had let Otis' wife sing all of IF YOU DON'T KNOW ME BY NOW. She sang the hell out of the beginning and got rousing applause. She would have brought the house down had she sung the whole thing.
A nice walk down memory lane and i bought one of the magnets.
