I live in Seattle, and am glad to have another pre-broadway try out, but yeah, not that exciting sounding of a show. Also, the theatre it is showing in here, is awful. If you're not in the first 10 rows, forget about enjoying the show.

But I do love me some Brent Barrett. Great voice, and HOT.

He's going back to Chicago, if he isn't back already.

Just about any show sounds bad in a one-paragraph summary. That's not an indication of anything. Try it with something like Urinetown or Kiss Me, Kate and it will sound bad, too.

I'm a huge fan of Zippel's lyrics and Wilder's songs for Mulan were wonderful. Not a bad combination at all. Don't know anything about the book writers, though.

RentBoy86 - Do you know the difference between a show that sucks and a production that sucks?

Make sure you note the fact that they couldn't confirm the casting with a representative from The 5th.

I happen to have heard from reliable sources that there are auditions for the part of the rock star who comes to the school and that they're looking for someone younger to play the role. A friend of mine who's an old pro heard some of the songs and said they were fantastic. He thinks it has the potential to be a hit.

I love Zippel and his lyrics. His work on City of Angels was fantastic! Who can tell what shows will be great or fall flat in one paragraph?

The Goodspeed workshop rocked! I can't wait to see this show and that most talented and gorgeous Mr. Barrett in a full-blown production. So excited it's coming in!
