I will see the show again on Sat. 7/30. I will have the opportunity to present some comments to the creative team at some point. PM me for any comments or discussion you may have about "Waiting For the Moon". Serious replies only, please.

Just a reminder, please send any comments/suggestions to my private message. Please do not contact Lenape or any one connected to the production.

As in some of my past BWW articles/interviews this is an arrangemt that I offer to give BWW readers an opportuinty to ask questions or in this case, offer comments that I will pass along to whatever project/people I cover at the time. Thanks for your cooperation.

I felt that the show was just hurrendous. Not a single song advanced the plot. The direction was tacky and unfocused and i felt as though Lauren Kennedy's vocal chords were going to burst whenever she sang. What was the plot? and why was it called "waiting for the Moon"? The one song had entitled that had little to do with the plot. (although they tried really hard to make it work it just did not)

College~ thanks for your opinion. You're free to dislike it of course. The recently posted interview/review with Wildhron and Murphy could explain the angle thet are taking with this.
Here's the link

I agree that it needs some tweaking and likely will get it. It is a vocally demanding role for any seasoned female, but Lauren pulled it off well. Perhaps some things will change with the music as well, who knows. It's also a magnificant vehicle for any female to play regardless where this show ends up.

And if you grasped the ending with Zelda you would see that she was waiting for Scott... and one could interpret that as, in reality like waiting for the moon, waiting for the romance or the life she envisioned with Scott or perhaps many other things. As Murphy explained "Waiting For Scott was not a good title".
That was my understanding of the title after seeing the production.

PB ENT.- Where the heck have you been? You're missin' my new summer Speedo! Haha

"I'm learning to dig deep down inside and find the truth within myself and put that out. I think what we identify with in popular music more than anything else is when someone just shares a truth that we can relate to. That's what I'm searching for in my music." - Ron Bohmer

"I broke the boundaries. It wasn't cool to be in plays- especially if you were in sports & I was in both." - Ashton Kutcher
