and loved it! I saw it Monday night, and there were no understudies on. I was pleasantly surprised by the animation projections (I had not read about them) and the bad-idea bears. I won the ticket lotto, so I was in the front row, but my view was not obstructed in any way. A more detailed review tomorrow...

Animation projections? Do you mean the sequences shown on the plasma screens?

Glad you finally got to see it!

Now you know why so many of us love it.

A fun night at the theater for sure!

If you've seen the show the answer is "yes".

Glad you enjoyed the show! I was surprised by the Bad Idea Bears, too, when I saw it. In fact, I was surprised by a lot. Even though I already adore the soundtrack, the live show was somehow a million times funnier than I expected!

It is one of my favorite shows. Now, I miss it. But, I have seen it seven times.



My favorite puppeteer in Q!

I have yet to see it, but love the cast recording.
*sigh* someday when I'm rich I can see all the shows I want.

AVE Q is at the top of my list over Les Miz and Phantom former tops. The tour is wonderful especially Rob McClure as Princeton/Rod.

I saw this show a few years ago, and was really surprised by how much I liked it. I really didn't want to like it because it beat "Caroline, or Change" for the Best Musical Tony (I know, I know, no need to verbally attack me for this). But, I was surprised by how much heart and soul there was to it. I like it a lot. I still don't think it should have won Best Musical (:-P) but, I like it a lot!
