It's a great but incredibly daunting show. I was supposed to do the premiere fully-staged production at the Spirit of Broadway Theatre so I have some insight on the show. Tam was actually supposed to play Adam there but he was cast in A Chorus Line instead. The show however was set to continue without him and the rest of the cast was lined up and in rehersal but troubles with landing the leads they wanted forced the show to be postponed. I was actually set to do a smaller role and in talks to understudy Tam's role of Adam. I can tell you it is one of the most demanding roles I have ever seen. He is literally on stage I believe the entire time and has some very vocally challenging material to sing. I actually have the entire script, score, and concept CD.
With some re-tooling to the material and the right cast, which is crucial to this piece as it is VERY demanding, I'm sure this will be fantastic. Deff worth catching!
