Loved Sweet Smell.
I'm not one for rules:
Currently Running: Bombay-worst thing to hit the boards all years.
Runner up - Dracula
Honorable Mentions (Running/Closed) - After The Fall; Jumpers; Match; Wonderful Town; Civil War; Boy/ Oz; Lear; 42Street; Phantom.
Wow...It just hit me - I think i'm a bit too critical.

Posted: 9/24/04 at 1:16pmReally, JJ? I wouldn't see Boy From Oz with comp tix? Personally, I'm not a fan AT ALL of the show, but I thought Hugh Jackman's performance (and really, the rest of the cast was pretty great too) would make watching it for free bearable.

Can it count that I went to see 42nd St. for free and then wished it to be over by the end of the first number?
I wouldn't see My Life With Albertine again. Unless all of my favorite actors in the world were in it, and even then... not so sure. The music still sticks in my head a year and a half later.

I don't know that there is anything that could get me to sit through Jekyll & Hyde again, unless it was re-cast with a lot of my favorite performers...and even then it would be tough.
(Maybe if they added some Fosse-inspired choreography...)
Also The Graduate.

Posted: 9/24/04 at 2:13pmWhat's with people saying they'd sit through awful, boring shows if they have free tickets? It's called scalping.
Hilda, Hilda, wake up! I've invented a maneuver.

Posted: 9/24/04 at 4:11pmAs far as the Graduate, it was a big hit at the box office that more than recouped its investment. By definition, it was not a flop.

Yep...really hated Oz...lol. Wicked would be on my list, but I want to go back just to see George Hearn on stage again.
How could someone fall asleep at Copenhagen?? Loved it...

Posted: 9/24/04 at 4:50pmI don't think anyone was saying The Graduate was a flop financially...just that it was painful for some of us to sit through!
