Yes, I just finished reading this actually.....I will be interested to see the changes they make. I would like to quote though
" So now that the show has begun playing, will Rob and Doug be reading the message boards to gain feedback on their production? Rob said most respectfully, "No. I'll be in the theater seeing and hearing how the audience is reacting to the material. For me it's a first hand experience - that's how I am able to judge how the show is going."
This is a very good idea but judging from what I saw opening preview night the audience wasn't responding very well at all and they(who were sitting next to me) did not seem to notice at all, almost everyone I talked to (which turned out to be around 20 people-a fair sampling) were not impressed, and they seemed oblivious.
Oh well, what can you do-I do wish this show well though, and hope that I am in the minority when I say I didn't really like it.
"I guess she is one very confident girl who feels if you see it, it shall be.
I hope she sees a room with a piano player and a bunch of scary middle-aged queens sitting behind a table, talking to each other as she auditions!!"
