Who has bought a cast recording of a show that closed and made you regret not seeing it?

Posted: 10/17/05 at 5:53pm

Well, who?

I have had a few. They were:
"Jane Eyre"
"Caroline, or Change"
"You're a Good Man, Charlie Brown"
Those were it. All the others were shows I was to young, or not born yet. Anyone have one?

I tend to only buy cast recordings after I've seen a show.

Definitely Aida even thought it's a Disney (I know I know). I stayed at the Double Tree Hotel which was ATTACHED to Aida and didn't see it... Way to go slick!

I agree about Aida. Stayed in the same hotel. I guess we've had a similar experience.

Urinetown. I really, really wish I had seen it. Ah well.

And is Jane Eyre good? I see that alot of people have mentioned it, but I've never heard any music from it.
