Worst show you've seen — Page 6

I had the pleasure of sitting through the second preview of "The Ten Commandments"...and all of the creative team was sitting around me cheering it on. That was pretty painful. I could also see the moniters that Val Kilmer was reading his lyrics off of and I was practically blinded by the pyrotechnics.

And, if any one knows "Princess Diana the musical"...

1. The Frogs
2. The Look of Love
3. Dracula

Casper the Musical...previewed in 4 cities, never to be seen again???

I just really can't take people seriously who say that RENT and CABARET are among the worst shows they've ever seen. I will never understand that - ESPECIALLY Cabaret.

Anyway, to those of you that hated BLOOD BROTHERS, keep an open mind about it - the right production will make you fall in love with it. I adore that show.

Now for the worst I've ever seen (broadway), ranked:


1. Never Gonna Dance
2. The Producers
3. The Look of Love
4. Oldest Living Confederate Widow Tells All
5. Dracula
6. Bye Bye Birdie (Encores)
7. La Cage Aux Folles (revival)
8. Thoroughly Modern Millie
9. Into the Woods (revival)
10.Little Shop of Horrors (revival)

Gypsy, are you KIDDING me? You obviously don't know brilliantly written theatre when you see it, then...

I Do, I Do!

I saw it performed in a community theatre by a real estate agent and his wife.
They had no acting credits.
I don't remember how I got there...

CATSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS,

Corine, what's it about?

It is such a shame. The show has the cutest Producer.
It was PAINFUL. And no way to escape. The agony song went off from Into The Woods.
It is the kind of show that makes no sense and was so twisted and stupid. It was 90 minutes and felt more like 90 days.

Jekyll and Hyde: I'm talking about the movie and the stage show here, not the wonderful 1994 concept album (with the great Anthony Warlow). The show is bad, and the movie is laughable.

Cats: Good music in parts, but the most boring show in history

Guys and Dolls: I know heaps of people like it and it's a
classic and all, but i hate it with a passion. Except for Luck Be a Lady, it's all awful.

How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying: Lame. Crap music, boring book.

The Australian Esgee entertainment G & S series: i know not a hell of a lot of people on the board will be familiar with the series, but Simon Gallagher and Jon English did horribly updated verisons of Pirates (which was the least awful) HMS Pinafore and (a perfectly hideous) Mikado (with pooh-bah as a samurai!?!?!?!?!

Awful, awful, awful. They opted for keyboards and drums instead of a full orchestra, and it sounded like the devil had musically directed.

Dracula

My worst:
"Mamma Mia"
"The Lion King"

I may have to see "On The Record," because when it comes to Denver this July, that will be its last stop. I'd like to say that I saw a real live flop.
