Posted: 8/27/04 at 7:40pmI have not seen a show on Broadway, but going by the recording......WONDERFUL TOWN
re: Worst Show on Broadway now...#7
Posted: 8/27/04 at 7:42pmYeah the vocals on wonderful town aren't very good. But the word is Donna Murphy is better live.
re: Worst Show on Broadway now...#8
Posted: 8/27/04 at 7:44pmTrue. It is all in the show, I guess......but I CAN NOT listen to that recording. Anyway, I saw BOMBAY DREAMS in London and loved it. If you take it as it being like a Bollywood movie, then it is more enjoyable (I have not seen the broadway version) but the London version was great.

Posted: 8/27/04 at 8:25pmNo Im with you. I love the book. It's funny, sad, moving...everything. The only thing is is that the wizard and fiyero are a little underdeveloped. other than that i love it. It must have been so hard for her to pick out what was needed and what wasnt and figure out the staging and put it all together for a 2 hour 45 minute show

Here's all the musicals I've heard weren't that great:
Dracula
Bombay Dreams
Wonderful Town
re: Worst Show on Broadway now...#19
Posted: 8/27/04 at 8:40pmNo such thing. To each his own. For every show you don't like there are legions of loyal fans who love it. Because of that, theatre is still alive today.

re: Worst Show on Broadway now...#21
Posted: 8/27/04 at 9:24pmi havn't despised any of the shows which are currently running, but i have to say that "Jekyll and Hyde" was the worst thing i've ever sat through! terrible acting, terrible score (with a few exception that didn't redeam the whole) terrible lyrics, horredous staging, etc. etc. etc.
re: Worst Show on Broadway now...#22
Posted: 8/27/04 at 9:33pmI love the Jekyll and Hyde concept recording. Linda Eder and Anthony Warlow on one cd..........HEAVEN!!!
re: Worst Show on Broadway now...#23
Posted: 8/27/04 at 9:35pmIck. Even Eder, who I'll admit has an amazing voice, can't redeem the show for me.
re: Worst Show on Broadway now...#24
Posted: 8/27/04 at 9:37pmI can see why you don't like it......so to each his/her own. If it wasn't for Eder and Warlow, I probably wouldn't have liked it as much. Anything Warlow is in I will love.
