DOCTOR ZHIVAGO Reviews — Page 9

I say, Go Go Go Go.  I saw DR. ZHIVAGO before the reviews came out, and I loved it.  It is so moving, epic, and the music is beautiful. 

Broadway Mouth, don't be intimidated by Roxy. I don't happen to agree with you about Zhivago but like most around here, I won't hurl anything at you for sharing your opinion. 

For me, I don't care who liked what and who didn't. It's only an opinion and I like to read many. Don't enjoy attacks on opposing views but to each his own.       That said I can't remember disliking any show more than Dr Z in a  long long time. It was to me a complete mess. 

That would depend on whether he plans to stay in New York or go back to London. He probably has a Visa good for a year if he signed a one year contract with Zhivago but I don't really know enough about all of that to speculate. They've already announced the new Javert so that's out. We're getting ahead of ourselves though. They haven't posted a closing notice just yet.

1. Rebecca has to much baggage (legal trouble)

2. It would be compared to a Wildhorn musical music wise

3. Critics hate these types of musicals . I doubt the reviews would

   be as vicious as those heaped on Dr Z. Having said that, it would

   not be pretty

Me either^^  I don't need to see him again. Nice voice not withstanding, he was just dull to me.

I believe it's only a student rush, right?

"Mess of a show." Damn . I thought its run in Australia was quite successful? Amused by all you who only want to see it because you think Tam is hot; I only want to see it because I think Kelli is hot, ha. I'm not surprised it's not doing well; Mr. Roxy's #2 reasoning is a good explanation as to why its doing so badly. 

Roxy was talking about Rebecca anyway. I don't recall any of the reviewers mentioning Wildhorn in their reviews of Doctor Zhivago but I didn't read them all.

"To Bway Mouth
A word of warning. Get ready for a ton of **** about to be hurled at you from all sides. You will get the same treatment from many on the board that the show got from the critics.
I enjoyed it but there were flaws & problems."

Roxy just be quiet.

You have half the board blocked and post in a vacuum.

All your posts ever do is bemoan how everyone hates everything, and that couldn't be farther from the truth.

Why do you think you have any right to tell people to prepare for slings when you haven't participated in anything other than a one way conversation for months.

True dramamama!

And of course he is always kvetching that the critics hate Wildhorn.

It's one big anti-Wildhorn conspiracy against Roxy and Mrs. R.

"Does anyone think Tam has a shot at making it on Broadway elsewhere? Part of me would rather just see him in a better show..."

I saw Tam a few years ago in Chess in Toronto, and was so blown away by his Anthem that i went diving into the program afterwards to find out who that amazing singer was, and remembered his name afterward.  Hearing him sing again was the thing that i was most looking forward to when i went to see Dr. Zhivago in previews, and he didn't disappoint - he was wonderful in this show too.  I'd certainly be happy to see him in a City of Angels revival (and like many on here, have been wanting to see a City of Angels revival for a long time).

Is it a student rush? The girl next to me certainly wasn't a student - she's well known in the music theater world - and the couple next to me were in their late 60s at best?
