Don't get me wrong, by me defending AIDA's music I wasn't at all saying I liked the show. I saw it back when it was first opened and almost walked out. I thought it was absolutely terrible. Be glad you saw TABOO twice. I saw TABOO 15 or so times and don't regret a single one.

i am no fan of aida but the show was not as bad as others i have seen. don't ask why i felt the urge to post that.

"At the opening night party, they had clowns on stilts, jugglers, a chocolate fountain, popcorn, hot dogs. [My son] looked at me like I had been holding back. Like, 'This is what you do?' I had to tell him, 'No, no, darling. Opening nights don't usually look like this.' It's usually a dark bar with a bottle of vodka." ?Chitty Chitty Bang Bang's Jan Maxwell plus i proudly share the title of the shortest member over the age of 10 with wickedrentq!

I just didnt like Les Miz. Am I entitled to an opinion on here?

I also hated Titanic the musical.

AVENUE Q

the music is sooooooo annoying. it's funny and stuff, but the music sounded like stuff i listened to when i wuz 2 years old (not the lyrics of course)

"Let the little girl go, and that poor little dog? Dodo." That's my favorite line in the whole show (Wicked). My next favorite line is "Oh! It seems the artichoke is steamed."

Umm, you can think what you want, but the music for Avenue Q is SUPPOSED to sound like something you listened to when you were two. It's modeled after Sesame Street's music. Updated On: 12/23/04 at 06:21 PM

I found "Rent" fairly dull, too. I kept hearing how different it was, yet it kept reminding me of a variety of shows from the late 60's. While I don't get what all the fuss was about, it's nowhere near the worst show I've ever seen. I assume it's an age thing.

GASP but but..it's ..RENT

no no I'm just kidding again, your opinion, which is actually pretty interesting because all I've really heard is praise for RENT and now I know the other side of the story. very good very good

Adult Entertainment was vile
Noises Off was the only show I ever left during intermission.
Brooklyn was totally ridiculous.

WELCOME TO THE CLUB, hands down.

A close second would be that ghastly revival of GENTLEMEN PREFER BLONDES with K.T. Sullivan. Blech.

And I must confess that while I've walked out of many, many shows at intermission, the only show that I actually walked out of during the FIRST act was JANE EYRE.

I was bored to tears with Cabaret - that would be my worse experience. The storyline for Movin' Out sucked beyond belief, but the band more than made up for this flaw.

I left at intermission during the tour of King and I this year. I would have left sooner but I was using a cane and couldn't do it without disrupting people. A number of people left in the first 15 minutes. The king was offensive he was so bad. Usually I can find something in every thing I go to see that I like enough to stay but not this one. Even Moving Out which I had no desire to see, I ended up liking.

Ha. I seriously thought I was the only one subjected to Copacabana. Throughout high school, I used to usher at a pretty big theater in my area. We got all the big tours- the fabulous, the good, the decent, the bad, the ugly... and the Copacabana. *hides* I distinctly recall leaving the balcony to go hide in the ladies bathroom. I felt I'd been cheated, and when we ushered, we were seeing these shows for FREE!

And I actually didn't hate Saturday Night Fever TOO much... still pretty horrible, and I would NOT have spent my money to go see it... but there were some okay bits to it. ('Course it didn't help that the tour I saw was using one of those damn electronic orchestras... *rolls eyes*)
