You don't find him to be an excellent dancer?

I saw this on Halloween night - the orchestra was full but it did look like the mezz and balcony had quite a few empty seats. But as others have said, that's probably a slow night.
I absolutely loved the show. I thought the orchestra sounded great, the leads were excellent, and the dancing was mesmerizing. I had seen Tony Yazbeck in Gypsy and came away rather underwhelmed, but I thought he was great in this. I suppose if you are someone who doesn't like extended, ballet-inspired dance sequences, you might find those parts boring. I found them fantastic. I thought Yazbeck and Fairchild were great together - she was adorable in her part, too.
It did run quite long - I think we got out around 10:45 PM (that included their brief BC/EFA pitch after the curtain calls) but I actually would have sat and watched the whole thing again right then, had that been possible! And that rarely, rarely happens with me and musicals these days.
I know this is just one person's opinion but I would say that if you like classic musicals with a strong dance component you should definitely go.

Tony Yazbeck's performance was the one I walked away thinking, "he'd better get a Tony nomination!" I thought he was spectacular. His voice was gorgeous, and perfect partnering with one of the best dancers I've ever seen on Broadway.

"One step closer to my wish! =D"

The obvious, expected step, though.

No doubt. I just like seeing it in print.

You know that's just a classification, not any sort of indicator, right?

If we're not having fun, then why are we doing it? These are DISCUSSION boards, not mutual admiration boards. Discussion only occurs when we are willing to hear what others are thinking, regardless of whether it is alignment to our own thoughts.

Yup. Which is why I wrote, "One step closer to getting my wish" rather than, "I got my wish!"
