My thoughts remain pretty much this: http://www.latimes.com/entertainment/arts/la-et-cm-miss-you-like-hell-review-20161114-story.html
Theyve clearly cut or reworked a lot (some to the detriment of the show, because there’s a lot of woefully underused talent up there). But ultimately, it ends up being a show where you get emotional largely because the actors are working with inherently emotional topics (sometimes presented in a pretty manipulative way), not because the show has actually earned the emotion.
I really hate to say anything bad about Daphne Rubin-Vega. So I’ll just say, her acting is excellent.
That said, I also loathed Broadway darling Come From Away, with many of the same critiques I had of this. So if you disagree with me about that one, take my opinion with a grain of salt. I didn’t hate this. But I feel a little ripped off.

What’s the running time?"
According to the website, it's an hour and 45 minutes without an intermission. And it seema like they just extended, too.

A lot of the Public shows have Sunday evening shows, so that may help you add it to an otherwise full schedule?

I hope there’s more to see from this piece..."
I really enjoyed this as well. A lot more heart and better storytelling than most stuff on Broadway.

I enjoyed this musical very much and I hope it finds life in colleges and regional theaters.

I don't understand . . . what made you feel "ripped off"? It kind of denotes something was done to fool you, or you were tricked into something. Did you read reviews before you went? Not that you have too, but it may have help keep you from feeling taken advantage of, if that is your issue with the production.
