Just saw the show & it was great. Somehow the western music sounded like doo wop.

On Sunday afternoon, the last 3 rows were empty. It will be a struggle for it to survive. It is a pity as the show is a hoot. They sell a CD of 6 songs from the 12 song score. No idea why they just did not record the whole thing

I saw the show (more than once) and loved it!! (I'm wearing my "Johnny Guitar" t-shirt today). The cast was great! Hopefully, by spreading the word to posters here and to friends/family at home, it may have a longer life.

Congrats to everyone involved in the show (past and present)!

I noticed it won an Outer Critics Circle Award and is nominated for a Lucille Lortel Award. I'd love to hear more opinions on the show.

Did not care for it. Cast was wonderful-Ann Crumb in particular. Music stopped the plot-line cold (some rather nice). Worst of all it was pretty much a 5-10 minute "Carol Burnett" sketch streached to the max. I smiled all the way through but very seldom laughed out loud (which I believe is what the creative team wanted.

Well worth seeing for the cast.

Just my opinion, I may be wrong.

This show was also on my list, how long will it be running?

Ann Crumb is a hoot in the show! It's hard to believe this is the same actress who was so bland in ASPECTS OF LOVE.

Ann Crumb and Judy McLane both played Florence in two different proecutions of CHESS I saw in California.

Both were good.
