Worse show ever seen ??

'Thoroughly Modern Millie'. Holden/Lipman. My god that was rubbish beyond belief.

I am SOOOOOOOOOO going to be struck down and persicuted for this but MY worst show has to be Les Mis! I absolutly hate it! i saw it twice the first cast looked so bored with it like they really couldnt be bothered so i gave it another chance one year on diff cast....same story they looked like they would rather be picking fluff from their navels then singing on day more yet again! that and the sets look totaly dilapidated, and held together with blue tack!...ok that's so asking for trouble I know but its just my view on the show i'm sure many will disagree with me but we all have our opinions!

Im sure he's delighted youve just outed him lol

although im guessing if you mentioned it he's already out? Hmm....messageboards are fun! lol

I saw the show just before it moved and whilst i found some parts interesting, for the most part i was bored beyond belief.

All that bother over a loaf of bread? Irs basically a musical about a middle-aged french shoplifter! lol

hehe hes very much out(i think??hehe kidding)

DONT EVEN GET ME STARTED ON TONIGHTS THE BLOODY NIGHT

also hate chitty it makes my ears bleed hehe

The usual suspects:

Notre Dame de Paris
Tonight's the Night
Footloose - sorry, but just not my kind of thing
Tess - beige in musical form

On the positive side, Romeo & Juliet - The Musical doesn't make my list, though that's because it was so hysterically funny...

NOTRE DAME DE PARIS. A piece of crap. Score was boring, 90% of the songs (& scenes) were way too long and repetitive, sets dull, absolutely no acting whatsoever involved - you couldn't say anything about the characters and care for them even less, the direction was worse than horrible. The book was practically a bunch of scenes that followed one another without any explenation from anyone what's going on. It was practically a concert - the "actors" (should call them performers, since so little acting was required) just walked on stage, sung their songs and exited. NOTHING happened during the scenes, except the singing. And the lyrics just didn't deliver the story onwards.

Definitely the worst show I've ever seen!

West end artist i have to totaly agree with you, FAME is fab! i know so many people have isues with it but its so much fun i was in it at collage and had a wicked time and it really is one of those shows that people go and see when they dont know musical theatre its the same with Chicago these shows may be a litle past their sell by date with us but they are doing a good job at bringing new audiances to our genre and thats ALWAYS a good thing!
PS West end artist when are you booking till iv decided im guna give footloose a try to see if you can restore my faith after such a poor touring version...(i love the broadway show and was sooo annoyed at some of the changes made on uk tour...but more so at the bad casting)

The comments on the Broadway message board look like a majority of them don’t like the phantom of the opera!! Cant believe it does any one agree with them?? Cause I strongly disagree !!I am so glad also that no one has said ‘the woman in white’

"The comments on the Broadway message board look like a majority of them don’t like the phantom of the opera!! Cant believe it does any one agree with them?? Cause I strongly disagree !!"

I also get the vibe that people on the Broadway Board don't like phantom.

And i also love Fame - Esp Bring on Tomorrow. Saw an amateur production of it not too long ago.

I totally agree with rohingit. HOW COULD I FORGET THAT?!
Yes, i loathed and dispised Bombay Dreams. What he said lol

I strongly dislike Phantom!

Without question - MAMMA MIA. I know many people love this show but I found the humour irritating to the point of being painful, the book banal and trite, the characters wooden and the songs (which in any other context I enjoy) simply did not work as musical theatre vehicles. It just reinforced my distaste for "contrived" musicals.
