Wicked, it gets slopier and slopier with each new cast.

RENT
That is just a terrible, terrible show. I wouldnt go even if I got free tickets.

I have to agree that Phantom's spectacle would probably be diminished during a second viewing. The same would go for any spectacle show, I'd imagine. Wicked, especially, would not be as good a second time.
No desire to see RENT again.

Posted: 2/26/06 at 7:00pmI'm adding CATS to my list. Sorry, it's just way too weird for me. I like some of the songs but I left the theater thinking, "What just happened?"

Lion King... once you get over the costumes I thought the show was a bore...
BKLYN... amazing vocals and a ****ty story, you can only sit through that once
All Shook Up... once was MORE than enough, atleast Cheyenne was pretty!
Mamma Mia... did see it twice and wish I had saved my money... I enjoyed it the first time but the second time you realize there isn't too much to it...
Movin' Out... couldn't pay me to see it again although the dancers were great
Spelling Bee... when you know the jokes it is just ok... plus Jay Reiss and Dan Fogler being gone just really hurts the show I feel...

Hairspray
I would say Lion King and Phantom, but I've seen them twice each. Loved LK the second time around, hated Phantom even more...

Posted: 2/26/06 at 7:13pmJersey Boys. I liked it, but I don't know if I liked it enough to go see it again.

I thought it was brilliant the first time, but the second time, I wasn't too interested. The jokes weren't as funny and so much of the show relys on shock value that the second time wasn't that fun.

Posted: 2/26/06 at 7:30pmDRS; Phantom (once was more than enough...I slept through half the 2nd act); Spelling Bee (although I saw it twice, but the second time was the adult show so the jokes were different); Beauty and the Beast; Jersey Boys; and Sweeney Todd (great show, but don't think I could sit through it a 2nd time)

Posted: 2/26/06 at 7:51pmThe one I'd probably say, not counting ones I didn't like that much in the first place, would be Chitty. Liked it much more the first time than the second.

I thought of one more. Into the Woods, maybe I'd see it again, but it really didn't interest me.
