I second what Ruffian has said

Hallelujah

Unfortunately, I can hear the critics now. The show "sucks", put a stake in it, it makes DOTV look good etc etc

Hopefully, unlike Civil War , a cast album will be made

I hope the backer has deep pockets. He will have to counter the expected dreadful reviews

ROXY you are right....can already hear the Critics knashing away

To Hell with them, I am EXCITED about this show

It's vampires by Frank Wildhorn... of course it's going to get scathing reviews.

Best wishes to the show but I'm a bit apprehensive.

Judging from Wildhorn's track record, one can assume this latest "show" also has no dramaturgical purpose or musical concept behind it, has been chosen because its source material is in the public domain, and, like Jekyll and Hyde, is another lame attempt, even at this late date, to replicate the success of The Phantom of the Opera. No doubt we can look forward to further articles of Wildhorn suggesting he is the Richard Rodgers of contemporary musical theatre. Updated On: 3/25/04 at 08:35 PM

Hope that this time the Musical about Dracula is better than the others.

[Ruffian]

Posted: 3/25/04 at 8:43pm

Yes, here is hoping

I am interested in seeing it. Quick, someone bite my neck.

The reviews for the show when it was in La Jolla were pretty good. I am sure the critics will be unfair. They always are.
But I love his music and I love Scarlet Pimpernel and Jekyll and Hyde and Civil War so I am sure I will love this too.

This and Lestat? What's up with the Vampires invading Broadway. Or are vampires this years witches?

I saw this in La Jolla and found it to be a remarkable production in that it captured the legend of Dracula as well as giving it real theatrical emotion and depth, and the music was pretty good, Tom Hewitt was a marvel in the title role, I wish it the best on it's journey to Broadway!

[Ruffian]

Posted: 3/26/04 at 9:01am

Ohhhhhhhhhhh looks like good advance word

Again...yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

I'll go.
I'm a sucker for vampires.
They are sexy, sexy creatures on stage.

I spent too much time on the DOTV fan website...

Tom Hewitt is great. Just saw him in the Urinetown tour and he was excellent in Rocky Horror Show.

He was soooo fun in RH
