Saw it last night. BRILLIANT! I have lived in this city almost 18 years and this is the best thing I have seen on Broadway EVER...and I hate everything!

Clever music, dialogue, great pacing, the sets and lighting are great.

BRAVO cast & crew...I wish you all the best!

Bobby-
Was Tim Curry's part large? I adore him. Tell me about CURRY.

Was his part large? Didn't you see The Rocky Horror Picture Show?

LOL - Im not a fan of the show, but anyone can answer that question truthfully! No, his part is not that large. Yes, he is on stage a lot and does some nice work with what he's given, but the material is spread very evenly between all 3 leads and none, especially Curry gets a huge role.

Corine2- Tim Curry has the lead part in the show and is AMAZING!

Tim Curry was great....understated and not overplayed....great timing....He sang well too....He and Michael McGrath played off each other very well....

Sara Ramirez was GREAT....her second act number is a HOOT! (Women get the best roles!)

Hank Azaria is funny as hell....Its going to be hard to replace him.

Bobby - You didn't mention Christian Borle, who I think is terrific in a variety of roles, including the Historian, "Not Dead" Fred, a French guard, the Balladeer and Prince Herbert.

Thanks guys. I am a huge fan of Borle. He was great in Elegies.
He sang my dog. I almost lost it. He is funny.

Christian was great....There wasnt a performance that I DIDNT like...I just loved that no one over played anything and was AIMING for the laugh....they all just let it happen...

I love all the musical theatre references...thats the only thing that might ever be a problem only because if you dont know the shows you wont understand what people are laughing about. But I just thought the entire show. I think it is one of those shows that you could see time and time again and not see the same show twice.

When Roma compared it to Forbidden Broadway i knew that i had to see it.
I will try for standing room next week.
Tim Curry is worth standing for.
Love him.
