Rachel-i've seen the show thank you very much, and i payed full price! i've probably seen more broadway shows than most people my age on this board, or at least for someone who lives in Texas! it's that i don't know art when i see it, i just know that while brooklyn is nice mindless fun, it's not 'art' per say.
listened to Sondheim ever? Pacific Overtures? Assassins? they were just revived and were stunning.
try seeing other broadway shows than you can have a whole 'portfolio' of shows you've seen than you can trash, diss or praise shows.
