I absolutely adored this show when I saw it last Spring, and hope it has a nice life in regional theaters. I think once more people get exposed to the cast recording, it'll make a bigger splash. It's a beautiful piece, and in a world with new jukebox musicals being announced weekly, or movies being adapted to the stage, it is super refreshing to see a show like this exist, and be of such wonderful quality.

When the cast album drops tomorrow, I really recommend everyone listen to it! Fantastic range of music, and the performances were so good. I do not cry at the theater - ever - but I cried at the finale of this last Spring.

I'm not a fan of the album cover but I'm curious to hear the music.

i saw ‘eat you up’ was removed from the album, was that entire mall scene removed from the public production?

Gizel sounds fantastic, as always."

daphne has this quality to her voice that makes you believe that all of it is real, and that’s really hard to have. she’s not too polished, and just the right amount of raw that most stars lack these days in return for the perfect belt.

gizel has a nice voice and i enjoy it but i prefer krystina as olivia, she’s much more angry while she sings, in my opinion. gizel has a voice that sound...small, if that makes sense?

but i prefer how she looked compared to krystina, not in a facial feature way, but in costuming. la jolla had olivia costumed as a regular emo teenager (dark eyeliner, plastic choker, bone straight hair, etc.) instead of how she was costumed at the public, like she was actually depressed, (messy hair, bags under her eyes, old baggy clothes, etc.).

i don’t know why they cut out some of the best songs? eat you up is a full on bop that was lost too soon lmao

The music (and often the lyrics) feel so interchangeable. It feels like Erin McKeown wrote 20 songs, put their titles in a hat, and drew one out every time the bookwriter said they needed a song."

Did you get a chance to see the productions at La Jolla or the Public? I saw it at the Public, and the dramatic weight was definitely there, but I agree it doesn't come through as clearly on the cast album. I was absolutely riveted when I saw it, but the cast album doesn't capture the magic I felt when I heard it for the first time. Overall though, I hope this gets a second life somewhere. It's such an amazing concept, and it just needs some more workshopping. Not sure if this could work in a huge Broadway theater, but something like Circle in the Square would be a great showcase for this.
