I love the sets and costumes! Hope the show itself is not as awful as everyone keeps saying...

Love it.

The set actually looks even better in person.

Why does it look like Uncle Jesse is molesting an innocent group of Conrad Birdie fans? Thank God they didn't cast Saget.

Looks great!

I love the dresses in the third photo. I've always had a weakness for dresses with huge, poofy skirts, whether they're from the 50s or the 1800s.

It could just be the angle of the photo, but something with "The Telephone Hour" just looks off... I can't really explain it. Overall, I'm loving it!

I agree with ljay. The sets look better in person. Not that they look bad in the photos.

I hope they look better because they don't look like anything great in the pictures. But I'm still going in with an open mind! We'll see....

The set is AWESOME in person.

Well...in all honesty...you only REALLY see the set in one shot as the pix are mostly focused on the actors.


But I agree: the costumes look great!

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.

Yes, because you can so judge a show by 5 still photographs. Good observation.

Thud.

I don't care whether she can sing or not, I love Gina Gershon!

The show really LOOKS great. The colors and the brightness of the sets matched with the costumes (especially the grouped colors of each family) are wonderful to watch on stage. I agree, the set looks much better in person. The revival is wonderful from the production/creative side of things. It's just some of that casting...

Well...bad reviews or not, the show still LOOKS fantastic.
