Whats your least favorite Broadway show and why?
Mine is Mamma Mia just because I dont like the music, I was never really into ABBA.

Yes, BROOKLYN and GV for me.
I would also disagree that all "catalogue musicals" are bad. A CLASS ACT was a catalogue musical, and it was brilliant.

Posted: 2/25/05 at 3:53pmBrooklyn was the only show I've seen that I didn't like very much. I didn't hate it, but I would not see it again, even for free

Posted: 2/25/05 at 4:20pmI'm probably the only who feels this way, but I don't like Company or Follies. I've tried, but I just can't. Love Sondheim's other work, especially Assassins and Passion, the other 2, I don't like them.
The phrase "working mother" is redundant.

SallyBrown- I'm glad you loved Beauty and the Beast!
I really didn't care for it because I just felt like I was at Disney World. It didn't feel like an artful, passionate Broadway experience to me. It was just obvious to me that it was a business venture made mostly for kids and families. I felt as though I could've experienced the same thing flipping on the animated movie or going to a theme park.
Again, that's just my opinion.

Posted: 2/25/05 at 4:25pmah I see. I suppose that compared to the shows out now, BATB doesn't really seem the top, but hey, I was just happy to see anything! and i htought it was really good, but yeah Ive heard other ppl say what you've said. All good.
