Those who are priviledged enough to be going are in for a treat!

Posted: 4/15/09 at 7:43pmSteven's review surprised me...I would expect a review like that to come from a soccer mom, not a trendy kid.

i liked this show very much.
I think Aaron Tveit is a wonder on that stage. He is an amazing spectre and has the chops to be the next IT boy for a while until another one comes out of Ithaca or Carnegie Mellon or where ever.
I just don't think this show is going to get the raves some people think it will. I think, while the show is good, the show itself is very flawed for being so dramatic.
I think the show will also be a very very difficult sell in this economic climate. I am sure the op costs are around 350,000 a week so i think it could run a bit, but i just don't see this one making it.
Hopefully it will get a tony nom (of course I hope ROA gets one and shrek is the one left out in the cold)as I think the songs and subject matter need to be shown to the 6 million or so viewers who watch the tony's and I hope the show lasts until at least labor day because shows like this that take a risk on something need to be seen.
I just think they might have wanted to wait a bit more to bring it to the great white way.
All said and done, I wish it nothing but the best of reviews.

Posted: 4/15/09 at 8:08pmThe music is so fantastic. I'm kind of afraid that it won't survive too long on Broadway, but I hope it does. It'll definitely pick up a Tony or 2.
