Has anyone actually said Broadway? It’s on a tier 3 contract and it just doesn’t feel like it’s Broadway bound.

Folks expecting a replica of the lavish original 1994 Broadway production are setting themselves up for a huge disappointment. Plus, most will see this new production and question what was the big deal back in the 90s assuming this cheap looking production is what played on Broadway back then. 

They should just do this for its Broadway run:

Saw this last Friday and enjoyed it quite a bit. Yes, it's a tour, so scaled down. But for a tour, I thought it looked like Disney pulled out all the stops they could. The cast was excellent, and the costumes were terrific. There were several ensemble costume changes just during Be Our Guest. There are big and small changes to the book, staging and choreography. I had a lot of fun, and so did the extremely enthusiastic audience (HUGE ovations after Be Our Guest and the tavern dance number). After seeing multiple tour and regional productions over the past 30 or so years, it was nice to see this strong, high quality tour.
