Articulation issues at Floyd Collins

Has anyone else noticed that the singers and even the people speaking dialog at Floyd Collins- are barely comprehensible. They talk and sing- with way too much styling- almost all of them- that I could barely hear 80 per cent of the show- due to poor articulation. I saw Purpose- every syllable was clear- loved it- BUENA Vista Social Club- every moment clear and one of my all-time favorite shows ever!!!- but Floyd Collins- missed the show- and was there the entire time- lol. Anyone have this experience?

No, that was not my experience. I sat all the way off to the side and I could hear and understand everything perfectly. One of the best sound designs of the year, and a uniformly excellent cast.

I’d also agree about the excellent sound design - I sat about ten rows back center orchestra and heard everything.

I was in the center mezzanine, fourth row in, had no issue understanding any of the dialogue or lyrics.

I also had no sound issues. Sat center orchestra towards the left (great view of Jeremy Jordan.) I heard every word clearly. Overall I thought there actors enunciated their spoken words very well.

Some early posts in this thread noted that the sound design was muddled, but I attended one of the final preview performances and had no trouble understanding the lyrics.

I attended last month with very little familiarity with the score and had no issue understanding the lyrics or dialogue.


"...everyone finally shut up, and the audience could enjoy the beginning of the Anatevka Pogram in peace."

I guess it was just me then. Thank you everyone for your input- I guess- for whatever reason- I had a really hard time at this show.

Didn't really have a problem but the were a few times I had to really listen intensely. Most of it was clear. Great show. It deserved a bigger audience, IMO.

I sat upstairs and heard everything clearly.

I wish this had been extended, I would love to have seen it again.
