This looks like such a fun show! Hoping I can get to NYC to see this one.
It looks like an extremely fun, well cast show.
I LOVED THIS SHOW when I saw it in LA and I believe every board member here who saw it in LA loved it (Pir8Jenny, ESLGR8 and SingingBackup come immediately to mind). This show will only succeed by word-of-mouth. I have to say I do not like the advertising campaign- it reminds me of the failed advertising campaign for the amazing film "Ed Wood" about 10 years ago.
The show looks SOOOO good!! I DO think word of mouth will help ticket sales. But that clip just makes me want to go see it right NOW. It just looks like...a treat for real musical theater geeks. Can't wait!!

And I add myself to the list of people that really want to go see it!

I'm going on Tuesday--CANNOT WAIT!!! I love Beth Leavel, and the preview looks great!
I was in New York this past weekend and I walked past the Marquis theater and I think they were doing the move in at the theater. I love this show, I cant wait to see it again.

Every time I see a post on this board about The Drowsy Chaperone, I feel like such a privileged person that I've already got the chance to see it. It was AMAZING, and I absolutely can't wait for you all to see it!!!
I'm going to see it next Saturday. I'm PSYCHED.
That clip alone makes me want to go and buy tickets for the first preview right now.

volleyballer: I feel exactly the same way! I also feel a little sense of ownership, having been one of the first in the US to see it up on stage!
I'm going on Friday (4/7) and it looks like it'll be a great time!
I'll make my own list of people who saw it in LA and hated it.
KIDDING! I loved it. I hope to god it wins best musical.

Qman....You gave me a momentary heart attack! IF there was a list, it's a very short one!
Gotcha! You got punk'd!
Actually, there would probably be no names on that list. It's a show that is almost impossible to hate.

Wow I wasn't impressed with the clip. Hope it sounds better than the clip made it look. So what am I missing lol. Why are people so excited by this?
