I'm glad I saw "Dance of the Vampires," but I really kinda liked it.

well, the music, that is
Merrily We Roll Along *sigh* I find it charming.
What is Annie II?
Does Merrily really qualify as a train wreck?
i was wondering that too. flop and trainwreck mean two very seperate things.
Annie 2 is just what it seems. A sequel to Annie.
Carrie

but WHY? ahaha
Awww I like Merrily.
I was reluctant to throw that out there! It didn't last long so I figured that's what was meant by a trainwreck...kinda. But it contains some of my ALL TIME favorite music. (Am I vindicated now?!!)

I think the original production of Merrily would qualify as a train wreck. Sacking the lead, the choreographer, changing the costumes to the t-shirts, running sixteen performances, people walking out, etc.
Don't get me wrong. As my name attests, I love Merrily, but the original production was clearly a huge mess. It's partially due to the infamy of its original run that I don't think the show will ever truly connect with a mass audience.
Yeah trainwreck has more to do with something being so bad you can't take your eyes away. Merrily had enough genius about it to take it out of the trainwreck category. I think Merrily failed mostly because of the critics.

Train wrecks I wish I *hadn't* seen: Brooklyn and Sweet Smell.
And it was the original production I was referring to.

Merrily has very devoted following. I love it. I'd still consider it a train wreck.

I wish I had seen Jasmine Guy's "episode" on stage in VIOLET HOUR which resulted in her understudy having to finish her performance.
