Best: TBOM, Priscilla, Importance of Being Earnest

Best: The Milk Train

Worst: Mistakes Were Made; Gruesome Playground Injuries

#11

Best/Worst of the Season?

Posted: 3/27/11 at 9:26pm

Best: The Book of Mormon; Brief Encounter; The Scottsboro Boys; The Little Foxes; The Interminable Suicide of Gregory Church

Worst: Compulsion; A Free Man of Color.

Most overrated: Other Desert Cities

Most underrated: Sue me--I liked Women on the Verge. It was a huge mess, but I still had a blast. I'd rather sit through its sloppiness a dozen times than have to rewatch some of the more lifeless but technically more competent productions this season--I'm looking at you, How to Succeed.

Best so far (I'm not done seeing shows this season yet):
The Scottsboro Boys- Pure brilliance
Sister Act- Pure fun
Marin and Jason in Next to Normal- Breathed new life into an already great show
Encores! Bells are Ringing- Pure, old fashioned fun

Worst so far:
I haven't wasted my money on Spider Man, yet, but maybe that's good news
Women on the Verge... - It had professional performances, a nice design concept and moved swiftly, but the material was oh so dull. Really sad to say it wasn't very good

(Personally I consider Scottsboro & BBAJ last season, just me though):

Best- Book of Mormon
worst- Wonderland (Seriously, it's worse than Spiderman. There... I said it...)

Best (so far):

Scottsboro Boys
Importance of Being Earnest
The Milk Train Doesn't Stop Here Anymore
Anything Goes

Worst (so far):

Spiderman. It was SO awful that it set a new standard for awfulnees and pobably has replaced Carrie. I'm sure that NOTHING will hit be as badly as that stinker.

From what I've seen so far this season (which isn't much, yet) The Scottsboro Boys and the Marin/Jason N2N (I guess it somewhat counts as this season)

with so many offerings this season, you would think that i could find more than 1 show to love. wrong.

best: how to succeed (and i'm NOT a daniel radcliffe fan)

worst: bloody bloody andrew jackson, brief encounter (i know others loved this, but i saw the final dress and it was torturous), bengal tiger (i left at intermission), **i'll definitely get sh*t for this one** scottsboro boys, women on the verge, wonderland (i saw the first preview, maybe it will get better)
