Do you know the show Into the Woods well? Have you heard of flop musicals such as Carrie, Got Tu Go Disco, Dude, Kwamina, Oh Captain, Oh Kay, etc? Do you know who Mary Stout is? Christine Ebersole? Sutton Foster? Victoria Clark?

If the answer to most of these is yes, then you will probably enjoy the show! I liked it a lot because I am an avid theater-goer, but I know a few people who saw it on a whim and left in the middle of the show because they just "didn't get it."

Here we go again...sure, it's great if you get those references, like icing on the cake. But here are the real questions at hand:

Have you ever had a dream?

Can you relate to friendship and its ups and downs?

Did you ever think you weren't good/smart/cute/talented/connected enough to compete?

Have you ever felt your pulse rate quicken when you realized you were making progress on a daunting task?

Does the idea of watching 4 incredibly talented people devoted to one another, backed by a kickass keyboard player talk about their struggle to get to Broadway interest you?

Do you like to laugh?

If so, you will definitely enjoy the show. And afterward, if you want to find out who Mary Stout is or anything about the flop musicals mentioned in [tos], Google them! I just have to say that I never knew anything about the Vaudeville circuit or if the theaters mentioned in it were even real theaters, but I loved Gypsy. I've never tried heroin, but I loved Rent. Meat pies? Meh, but hey loved Sweeney. just sayin.

Yep, it IS too bad that sales are slow. But they were up nearly 3 and a half percent last week. And if people go see for themselves, without being discouraged from doing so, they will likely keep climbing. Look at Xanadu, another show that limped along until a very big bump leading up to and epecially after the Tonys.

Ah, but answering yes to those questions does not guarantee that you'll love it. Like it? Maybe, but no guarantees.

If given a choice between that and say Gypsy, South Pacific or In the Heights, any of those three would be higher on my list than [title of show].

Yes, jerby, that's so true. Those who didn't like [tos} are such magic-deprived fools, so blind to the possibilities of live theatre, such tragic sad losers.
