Posted: 6/29/07 at 12:50pmThis show gives hope to horrible movies that can be made into campy awesome musicals. I say "bravo"! Who knows, "From Justin to Kelly" may one day grace a Broadway stage in a similar fashion.

"Suddenly the wheels are in motion
And I, I'm ready to sail any ocean
Suddenly I don't need the answers
'Cause I, I'm ready to take all my chances with you"
best song in the show.

OMG is WAT singing Xanadu????
i feel a change coming on. he's gonna get his Xanadu groove on soon.
he'll find his Xanadu...
I personally love 'The Fall' because it contains an eerie feel and a 'It's Alive' reprise.

Posted: 6/29/07 at 1:49pmOne of the best decisions the writers made was putting "Evil Woman" in the show. It brings the house down.

<< It may not be for everyone, but I think its audience goes beyond 25-50 year old gay men... >>
Totally agree.... each time I have seen it, the crowd seems to be more diverse. For some reason, there is this feeling that only gay men are going to see this show.
Not true.
