You didn't like GRAND HOTEL? Interesting. Actually the show itself wasn't so great, but the cast was fabulous.

Little Fish, all is forgiven.



"Grand Hotel" was one of the most rewarding theatrical experirnces I've ever had. I saw it 8 times, including opening night and the closing performance.

I was on a pre-arranged NYC trip that included tickets to WILL ROGERS FOLLIES which I didn't care to see at all. I paid a fortune for GRAND HOTEL tickets. I disliked GRAND HOTEL from start to finish (John Schneider from "Dukes of Hazzard" was starring) and enjoyed every minute of WILL ROGERS FOLLIES.

I felt a little Ripped off after

Phantom of the Opera
Fiddler on the Roof revival
Les Miserables

The first and last ones on my list had a cast pf performers that looked like they hated every moment while they were on stage. Fiddler....I don't know what was wrong, it just didn't feel right. I think i t was the theatre.

There was not one part of "Wicked" that I liked. The book was weak, as was the score, and the performances were not worth $101.25.

The Music Man National Tour last fall...oy...don't even get me started! First time I've been so underwhelmed and dissapointed that I had to leave at intermission. Not worth the $70 at all:S

I would LOVE to play the Baker's Wife. But I figure, just about every girl goes in there hoping to be the Baker's Wife, Cindarella or the Witch. I've already done this, so I'll just be safe.

Who did the tour, b/c the Broadway revival was beautiful?

I think people just say Wicked because of its reputation here.

I don't think anyone will leave the Gerhswin feeling COMPLETELY ripped off. I find it impossible. If there was atleast one thing you enjoyed it should've been "Defying Gravity."

You have to go into "Wicked" expecting nothing, like I did.

I agree. Atleast the performances should've impressed you. I DON'T think any of the 4 leading ladies within Wicked's opening (Idina, Kristin, Jennfer, Shoshana) would leave an audience feeling ripped off.

I was very disappointed by HAIRSPRAY. I kept waiting for something to blow me away or impress me. It was nothing special.
