Hey I have tickets for now the day before Dracula opens. Because they pushed back there opening nite yet again. But I was wondering for those who have seen the show already... how is it? It better be a pretty decent show for them having so many problems with the show (ex. pushing there preview date back then opening nite like 5 or 6 times)
someone let me know.

They delays so far have only been for technical reasons, which will make a lot of sense when you see the show..lots of flying and special effects throughout.
I'd say definitely go. The problems I saw with the show are fixable and by the time you go, changes no doubt will have been made. Dracula is now going through the period, like any other musical, where revisions are made based on how it plays in front of an audience and the feedback that they're getting. Don't believe the naysayers who claim the show is unfixable..there's certainly things to be fixed, but I've seen preview performances where much more needed to be fixed than with Dracula. I wouldn't be surprised that the opening is delayed again, and if that happens, I would take it as a good sign, although they certainly could have enough time to make the necessary changes. I definitely wouldn't recommend opening it without fixing the problems first though.
