I saw the final dress rehearsal on Monday.

It was absolutely wonderful. The score is beautiful, the cast (featuring three of my favorite performers) was AMAZING, and the production is nicely paced and designed.

The entire second act is hilarious, and if the final trio was nothing short of side-splitting (while at the same time being beautifully sung).

If you can't get tickets, def. see it when they broadcast it in HD! It's pure joy.
