Rejoice!!!!!!!! Spring Awakening is a critical success. Now let's wait for the grosses (Fingers still crossed)!!!!!!!!
it wouldn't be the end of the world if the grosses for Spring Awakening goes down this week since it was opening week and TONS of comps were given out to the press, etc.. lets just hope NEXT week's grosses show a big increase!
I'm really disapointed in the raves the show has gotten. Sadistic, yes. But Grey Gardens is a masterpiece. I hate all of those edgy, "**** everyone" musicals and Spring Awakening to me falls into that category. It's probably going to steal a lot of Grey Garden's thunder, although it pales in comparision to one of the greatest musicals of the past 10 years playing at the Walter Kerr.
Those nobodies are brainless. That teenage girl is such an airhead. I'm surprised they didn't assign this show to the resident homo. They always tend to give him any show that's gay-related.
I'm just so excited that I saw this show in its third official Broadway preview, a.k.a. its first matinee back in November. It was possibly the best musical I saw that weekend (I saw 4), and it may be my all-time favorite. It's just extremely exciting to me that a saw a show that was so well-deserving of its critical adoration!
Here's to a long, healthy run! Break legs cast and crew!
bump..
lets just say i love spring awakening
