This is an interesting choice for Miss Saigon. It was well done but I had no interest in seeing it and still have none after that.

The opening was very clever. Enjoyed it very much.

Honestly, I wish Saigon had chosen...something else. But my love for this production doesn't change a bit!

Also, Anastasia was robbed for costumes.

I'm really glad Miss Saigon didn't do the "greatest love story of our time," because it is clearly not what the production wants to deliver.

Gavin's been out forEVER.    

If we're not having fun, then why are we doing it? These are DISCUSSION boards, not mutual admiration boards. Discussion only occurs when we are willing to hear what others are thinking, regardless of whether it is alignment to our own thoughts.

"Miss Saigon crushed it! Seeing it next week and I'm very excited! "

She went to my daughters HS in Charlotte NC, school called Northwest School Of The Arts"

I saw Miss Saigon on Broadway many moons ago. I have had no interest in seeing it again, but now I definitely do!

Those projections for SAIGON though...

A Chorus Line revival played its final Broadway performance on August 17, 2008. The tour played its final performance on August 21, 2011. A new non-equity tour started in October 2012 played its final performance on March 23, 2013. Another non-equity tour launched on January 20, 2018. The tour ended its US run in Kansas City and then toured throughout Japan August & September 2018.

Miss Saigon was great, Eva amazing. But it implied she was in love with Thuy & it was their love story. I don't object, I voted for Jeremy Corbyn, but it was an interesting choice to appeal to Trump's America.

These performances from the shows are always challenging (time limits, new stage, etc) so I try to keep that in mind, but so far CFA and Miss Saigon did nothing for me

Miss Saigon was wonderful. Eva nailed it, of course. Was that Jon Jon at the end or a understudy? Clever they didn't do a zoom up on him

CYNTHIA!

That speech. Wow.

She is, without a doubt, one of the greatest actresses of stage or screen of our time.
