The Let the Sunshine In ending was really good. The rest, not so much.

That intro was a big mess, although they finished strong with Hair. I follow theater, and even I couldn't keep the shows straight. I doubt the casual viewer got anything out of it.

As bad as the opening was the, Quintet was better staged with Luck be a Lady inserted in it then it is in the actual show.

Sure they did. They got "this is why I hate musicals."

I thought it was good.
I'm a professional. Whenever something goes wrong on stage, I know how to handle it so no one ever remembers. I flash my %#$&.

Besides the sound problems, I thought it was pretty thrilling as well, and a great way to honor a whole bunch of shows at once.

The sound in the opening was awful.
SNAFU, I agree with you regarding the Quintet. It was much more exciting at the Tonys than in the show.

i wasn't a big fan of mixing aaron and stockard's songs but it wasn't terrible. everything was pretty bad. i think they just wanted to have everyone possible on stage for Hair at the end...which was a freaking awesome ending to the very mediocre opening.

Hair redeemed the glittering puke that was served hot on the stage...
