Absolutely love this show. One of my favorite musicals in recent history. So innovative, entertaining, and thought-provoking – as well as an insanely talented cast. I rarely see shows in New York more than once, because I like to reserve show spots for new shows, but every time I returned to NYC while this was playing, this was a must-see. I was fortunate to get to experience it 3 times.
I’ve heard the producers are looking into options of mounting the show in different cities. Hope to see more life for this particular production (even if with new casts) – the staging was simply brilliant.
The physical cast recording includes a booklet with the full synopsis, I believe.
I was let down by the show. It had good elements but I wasn't really drawn in by it. I hardly remember much that happened. It was more in the moment than most pieces I've seen. I liked it when I was there but it had no staying power.
Brilliant show, great space. The music is incredible, the show was endlessly entertaining, and the cast, especially Phillipa Soo, Brittain Ashford and Josh Canfield were the stand outs for me. I hope this has a life somewhere else in NYC soon.
