Yeah, amen again. My daughter and I saw it last weekend and we both really enjoyed it. I was pleasantly surprised at the way the show captured the playfulness and intelligence that I remember in all those interviews, that I grew up with.
I want to reiterate that the dialogue is taken from actual quotes - every word that the Lennon character says I remember reading or hearing at some time over the years.
And I certainly didn't find the presentation in any way confusing. I'd describe it as a 'one-man show' -- with a cast of 9. That's a bit conceptual, but that's one of the things I love about the theater: that it can be as real as the sweat and the spit right in front of you, and yet abstract too.
I really hope this show can catch on, that they find the right balance for an audience to get it and enjoy it.
Thanks, Starbuck, for the fan page! I'm looking forward to the song clips, I really liked the singers and the arrangements.
