Loved, loved Sweet Charity on Broadway. I can't wait for it to get to Denver this December with Molly Ringwald. Can't wait to see how she does. I really enjoyed the production as a whole. I left the theatre with a big smile on my face!

Posted: 7/16/06 at 6:54pmPeople bashed the revival but it was my first introduction to the show and I loved it. Chrisitna Applegate was Sweet Charity. She embodied the optomism so well. The cast recording of the revival is still one of my favorites.

Posted: 7/16/06 at 10:19pmI enjoyed the revival very much due in great part to Ms. Applegate's lovable, touching portrayal.

Christina was perfection. I mean hell i saw it 15 times. She made any one who struggles in the search of love feel like they have hope.

Posted: 7/17/06 at 12:51amSo many people complained that she couldn't handle the singing or the dancing. I admit she wasn't the greatest in either, but her acting was amazing. I was so moved by her. Her sadness made me want to cry and her happiness made me feel overjoyed. I loved the revival.

Yeah, I can't wait to see it in Atlanta, too. It's one of my favorite shows touring right now. Especially Molly Ringwald, I mean, c'mon...it's Molly Ringwald!
I don't see what's to bash about it. Great acting, great choreography, and great sets. What's not to like?

Posted: 7/17/06 at 10:13amOkay, I was just going to walk away from this but I simply cannot. I too loved the revival... the 1986 one that is. Plain and simple you cannot top Fosse's original choreography and anything else is less than mediocre. It's like doing A CHROUS LINE without Bennett's original choreography or WEST SIDE STORY without Robbins' original choreography, it just doesn't work in my book.
