GORGEOUS.
When I see the phrase "the ____ estate", I imagine a vast mansion in the country full of monocled men and high-collared women receiving letters about productions across the country and doing spit-takes at whatever they contain.

I love it! I wish I could see it. Would anyone give me a brief synopsis of the show?

From Wikipedia:
Synopsis
A combination of whimsy, romance, and political satire, the plot revolves around Finian McLonergan, who has emigrated from Ireland to the town of Rainbow Valley in the mythical state of Missitucky with his daughter Sharon, intent on burying a stolen pot of gold in the shadows of Fort Knox, in the mistaken belief it will grow and multiply. Hot on their heels is Og, a leprechaun intent on recovering his treasure, before the loss of it turns him permanently human. Complicating matters are a corrupt senator who makes no effort to conceal his racial bigotry and the wishes made by those unknowingly in the vicinity of the hidden crock, including Sharon, who gives the senator a taste of his own hateful medicine by accidentally turning him black (temporarily). In the ultimate happy ending, Sharon marries the handsome, cocky young Woody Mahoney; and Woody's mute sister, "Susan the Silent", acquires the power of speech and falls in love with Og, (who decides that being human is not so bad after all).

Nice pictures, deadly show.

Really?
I think it looks incredibly dull, unimaginative and boring.
Where's the magic?

In the eyes of some of the beholders, I guess. Sure as hell was no goddamn magic the night I sat through it...

Baldwin looks absolutely stunning, but I think the pictures make the set look pretty drab. The video posted earlier is a lot more exciting, I think. Have we heard anything about a cast recording of this production?
