Yes, I saw Brooklyn. And I LIKED it. Seriously, I hate reviews. I didn't think the storyline was fuzzy or hard to understand at all. The talent was jut amazing...everyone sounded fabulous, and even Eden, who is sick sounded incredible. There was an understudy on for the streetsinger, but he sounded just as good if not better as what I've heard of the other actor. The costumes and set are AMAZING. Ramona got a roar of applause halfway through 'Raven,' and so did Eden and Horace in the middle of 'Streetsinger.' Yes, there was a thin layer of cheese throughout the whole show...but I thought it was cute, and it worked. It has its imperfections, but overall, I think it's a good show. And this is coming from someone who can't stand Wicked. I stagedoored afterwards, Eden was sick and didn't really stick around, but I got Ramona & Karen's autographs since I didn't have a camera with me.
Also, does anyone know of a site where I can hear full versions of the songs from Brooklyn?

A dancer might dream to see her name in lights and mean it,
but all she really dreams is to make someone
else feel the way she did when she first saw a dancer.
And that is so beautiful-Anonymous

Posted: 2/6/05 at 9:34pmJwei, I believe I said 'cheese' not 'cheesecake' =). And by 'thin layer of cheese,' I meant cheesy, lol.

I HATED Brooklyn sooooo much. . .
It's on the top of my list of worst shows.
I've gotta give credit though, Eden is fantastic, and I really hope that she's in a better show next time.
