Have already posted that I did not enjoy Billy Elliott. Mary Poppins was fun but nothing to go into detail about. South Pacific already has raves so no need for another one.
AVE Q - saw it mainly to compare it to the tour. In my humble opinion, I have to revise some comments I previously made on the tour. Maybe I saw it on an off night, even so Rob McClure is head and shoulders over Howie Michel Smith on Broadway. Smith really only creates a real character for Rod, Princeton seems an afterthought. Miss C. C. Romano is also a one character performer. She does well with Lucy but does not convince as the sweet, lovable Lucy and almost ruines the lovely "Fine Fine Line" doing it like a pop number for a CD rather than part of the show. Given a choice, I would definitely recommend the tour over the Broadway show. Not that Broadway is bad, I simply think the tour is better. Both are extremely funny and basically enjoyable.
