I for one hope the rights are released, my company will be first in line to do this in the UK. And i hope many groups that present the show WILL put their own spin on the show and present it how they would like too, i know i sure as hell will. That's the great thing with Carrie, it can be played so many ways, i just happen to think that Stafford and Co delivered on what THEY wanted to achieve, and i take my hat off to them.
'Almost none of the major reviews feels like this production for audiences surpasses the experience of the original so why did they try so hard to suffocate the memory of it?'
First of all i don't agree with the 'major' critics thing, a critic is a critic, just my thought. To answer the rest of that though, forever people have laughed at how bad the show was, inc many of these critics who have done articles on the original, why on earth would ANYBODY choose to recreate something that was such a mess? That is just idiotic and something i could see silly 'fan boys' doing. Also many (most) people have always said the only way the show could work now without becoming a spoof would be to do a show grounded in reality, that's exactly what they did. Sure they could have taken certain aspects so much further, but that is their choice.
I find it funny that nearly everyone on here has said how Mazzie's portrayal of a more human Mrs White was such a terrible thing but that seems to be something many critics are praising.
I guess it goes to show that this show will always split opinions on every aspect of it, something i find quite unique
