Dance of the Vampires had the redeeming aspect of being laughable (I mean you could laugh AT it, certain;y not with it), as opposed to other dreary monster plays and musicals.
I saw Teaneck Tanzi, and thought it was a good play that was all wrong for a big Broadway house (it originated in a pub in the UK).
Nothing good can be said about Good Vibrations; it was one of those flops that can be best described as "theatre death." It was like a bad frat/sorority skit.
Such a small selection of Playbills, thought. There are so many more.

Posted: 4/8/11 at 5:37pmThe terrible shows are the Playbills I cherish the most! Hey, anyone can have a FIDDLER or DOLLY program, but I have my Big Time Buck White (yes, Muhammed Ali appeared in a Broadway musical), Starmites, Mother Earth, etc. ....

Posted: 4/8/11 at 6:34pmI'll admit it, I saw Good Vibrations twice and have the Playbills to prove it! It was god awful, but yet I loved it in all it's badness.
