I have to think about this one...but what do YOU think?

A lot are going to yell at me for this...

Les Mis. But I did see a school version. The Broadway one would have probably been more interesting for me.

Oh, boy. Bash threads are so much fun.

Now if you'll excuse me, I'm off to put on my asbestos suit.

I dont find much theater to be "horribly" boring, but as far as shows that I could have used a double espresso during...

"Cats" and when they were not tapping... "42nd Street"

The Dining Room. It isn't a Broadway play but uhh, you didn't specify. I was playing with my arm the whole second half, that's how bored I was.

haha. I actually assistant directed that this past fall for my school... it wasn't too bad. I just don't find it a very great storyline or humorous or anything in particular. we had a really good cast and i was actually glad to be a part of it. we had a lot of fun making it.

i can see from an audience perspective that it can be boring.

GO HOOK! I HATE HATE HATE RENT. I love the OCR for WICKED, but the actual show didn't interest me. I was pretty bored.

I saw a very, very, very good school version of Les Mis and it was fantastic. Somehow the school got enough money to ship the entire cast to NYC for training with actual broadway people. Even my very critical theatre teacher was bawling her eyes out at the end.

Jean Valjean was amazing. His voice was awesome from his first line and never went down hill.

Everything abotu thsi show was awesome.

OMG. How can you not like this show? I mean yes, I understand some parts but as a whole........how? My girlfriend (who does not like musicals) loved it when we went to see it when it was on tour. The musical has nothing but heart and gives a great life lesson of to live everyday as if it is your last and love all around you, no matter how different they seem to be.

But I respect your opinion.

kelliex090, yes i was talking about The Dining Room by A.B. Gurney.

[CapnHook]

Posted: 8/12/04 at 8:01pm

I was kidding about WICKED and HELLO DOLLY (play on words, AHOY THERE, DOLLY).

However, RENT is boring. VERY awesome music, but it just lacks...plot. I mean yes, there is a storyline, but WHERE'S THE PLOT?

Of course not everyone is going to agree here. Let people say what they want to. Each show doesn't have to please everyone. Broadway is full of many different styles - that's what makes it so wonderful.
