Heidi at TLM Tonight? — Page 4

Sorry Colors, I couldn't sit through it again. There's nothing that I think "Oh, id like to see that again."

And just to throw my two cents in, I think Broadway should represent the best that commercial theater has to offer. And sorry, but "The Little Mermaid" is not it. I understand it's all a matter of opinion, and I'm not saying fluff is bad, but this is just awful. There was no artistry involved in the production, no insight, nothing. It's Disney, and this is the best way they can represent people under water: with skates and tacky paint jobs? It's just an awful show, and the songs are horrible, and yes, the cast gives it their all, and yes, it's employing a lot of actors/musicians/technicians, but that doesn't make it any less awful. If I was taking someone to see the theater for the first time, I would never dream of taking them to this. It's up there with "Brooklyn" to me in awfulness, and I honestly don't see what you all see. How that awful pelican/seagull song made it past the entire creative team and Disney heads, and the weeks of previews and out-of-town tryouts, I just will never understand.

the streamers have been cut (at least they were cut on wednesday evening)

"Her old transformation in Denver was better I think. She's a lot more graceful, and thus doesn't look like she's having a seizure on her way to the surface."

What was the old one like?

I remember the streamers the first time I saw it. My guess is that it was scaring some children and that's why they stopped it.

There were streamers when I saw it back in July and thought it was a special occasion, but it sounds like it usually happens...Why?
