They are the only two shows in 40 years of being a passionate musical theatre fan that I absolutely hated almost every minute of.

Look of Loved was a total dissaster!!! I don't agree with Corine2 at all with Never Gonna Dance being one of the worse shows!!!! It was great!

Never Gonna Sing should have been the name of it.
It was the only show on my list with potential not to be a total disaster. Sad very sad.

honestly, I'm with BroadwayGirl. I didn't love NGD, but I did really enjoy it. With the exception of Nancy Lemanger (sp?) none of them were horrid singers; I thought Noah was decent, and Karen Ziemba can definitely sing. For me, in Noah's case especially, the fact that his dancing was so amazing sort of overshadowed the fact that he wasn't the best singer I've heard.

Well, i can't say they are the worst in the sense that i absolutely hated them, but let's say they are my least favorites. All of them I saw in London though.

The Witches of Eastwick
Cats
Grease
Blood Brothers

Nancy made me hate the show. Without her it could have been passable. But she really could not sing and i had such a headache after seeing it.
You are right that without her it could be entertaining but it still made my list.

Thoroughly Modern Millie (I didn't like it at all, though Sutton was great!)
Flower Drum Song (the show sucked by the actors were great- so nice!!!)
Sly Fox (i saw it in Boston, and it's coming to Broadway soon- it's never going to make it on Broadway)
I have my books and my poetry to protect me...

Anytime, Anywhere:

BEAUTY AND THE BEAST

In Special Circumstances:

Aida with a Popstar Invasion
Rent on its low-energy nights

Of course the worst show I have ever seen in my LIFE and gladly left at intermission was a community production of "A Ritual for Returning" in Colorado. If anyone has ever heard of or seen this show, what are your thoughts?
