I was there as well.
Absolutely fantastic. Really blew me away. Needs a little tightening; it did run a bit too long. But the cast and the material is really first-rate.
It's more of a SPAMALOT than an AVENUE Q in terms of presentation, but it certainly doesn't skimp in terms of controversy, sacrilege or raunchiness. Absolutely uproarious.
Nikki M. James and Andrew Rannells are absolutely fantastic. Josh Gad is quite good as well but will certainly grow with a little more time as he finds some shading in the role. The producers of the show would be wise to consider pushing Rannells as the leading actor and Gad as a featured. I think both would have a great chance at scoring a nomination. James, I hope, will be considered in the featured actress category as well.
I adored this show. So fresh, so fun. Almost every joke landed and absolutely ignited the audience. What a great experience!
I'll post a curtain pic in just a few minutes.
