Does anyone know if the music is good. There is a medley of short clips on the website, but I want to know if the full cd is good. I would really like to hear "The Coming of The Dawn". I'm excited because Drew Sarich is doing the show.

"The Coming of The Dawn" is incredible and worth the price of the CD alone. The only problem with the CD is that some of the orchestrations are very synthesized and some lyrics border on the cheesy side of the fence, but over all the show has great potential. it's often described as how Jekyll and Hyde should have been though I do not agree with that. Unfortunately, it seems that with Young Frankenstein making it to Broadway first there may never be a home for a noncomidic Frankenstein.

Amen! But, as this is a concept CD with probably a pretty low budget, I'd cut it some slack as far as cheap synthesized production. Lyrics though...
