But once in a while a Fun Home, Hamilton, Dear Evan Hansen, or Hadestown will come along. The possibility of that happening is such a thrill that I don't mind if the odds are against it!
And yes, I did sit through Superhero, This Ain't No Disco, and Joan of Arc: Into the Fire.
For $35, I'll happily take a chance on The Wrong Man."
Very much agree with you in concept, but the past year and change has made me a bit more weary.
I saw all those you mention, plus Alice by Heart, In the Green, and Secret Life of Bees, all of which were major misses for me, despite some commendable elements. I did really like A Strange Loop, but all the time and effort involved at so low a hit rate I found taxing. Hence, why I now tend to wait for some kind of buzz or more substantive preview of the content, like this concept album.
