Posted: 6/20/05 at 1:28pmWell I would pick both of them over the other three.....but I think....Piazza. Just cause we haven't heard aything about Patti and Michael yet.

Posted: 6/20/05 at 1:43pmThey both definitely have amazing cats though. I don't know, it would be a tough decision if I could get to New York. Have you ever seen Sweeney before?

Posted: 6/20/05 at 1:46pmWell, I am sure in your life you'll have more than one opportunity to see Sweeney, but once Piazza is gone, I imagine it'll be gone for a while. Piazza was a life changing theatrical experience for me, partially due to the performances and production aspects. So while I haven't seen Sweeney obviously, I'd go with Piazza.

Man...that really is a tough one. I would choose Sweeney Todd over Piazza because the brilliance of the show itself. Sweeney Todd is just not something to miss. Oh, yeah, not to mention a certain actor in the lead!
I adore Piazza. It's truely unique in it's own form, but Sweeney Todd is just classic musical theatre.

Posted: 6/20/05 at 4:00pmIf you can only see one of them, I would go with Piazza. It has already proven itself to be a good production. The new Sweeney staging smells kinda iffy to me.
