ALW Cinderella

I saw this last night, almost lost for words. Close to the worse show I've seen, ever. 

The fact that this inane drivel is still on, beggers belief. I rarely leave before the end, but I was out of there at the interval. The fact they are taking it to Broadway, astonishes me. Might work with a new book & score written by someone else. Someone should take away Webber's pens and make him wear boxing gloves to prevent him using a piano.

Well I don’t agree and can think of either worse written or far less inspired shows I’ve seen on Broadway. “Only you, lonely you” is as good as any top tier ALW song.

More interestingly is history repeating itself?

I’m not surprised they’re going to be revising the show already. Andrew Lloyd Webber has a history of revising shows after the critics have their say. Sunset, The Woman in White and Love Never Dies all underwent similar revisions while the shows were still running and then invited critics back.

Guess I gotta go see it again in a couple weeks.

I just can’t see anyone taking the POST seriously.

Jordan pretty much summed it up.
