This was one of those "so bad it's enjoyable" shows. I mean...where else can you see something called "The Gas Mask Waltz" onstage?
The only real redeeming factor of this mess was the fantastic Alli Mauzey.

Posted: 12/30/09 at 5:07pmI really enjoyed the show. I thoguht it was fun and had some SERIOUS choreography. Some of the best I'd seen in years on Broadway. I thought Alli was wonderful too. I had a great time at Crybaby.

No respect lost, Gator...like what you like -- even if that's Crybaby!!!
For me it's more not understanding the missing. Theater by nature IS transient. Part of it's beauty is that it's a moment in time (or many moments) shared between audience and cast. I will always have my thoughts and memories of shows and can look forward to a possible revival. But I just " miss" shows. There is always something new to experience.

Posted: 12/31/09 at 9:40amCool Mama...glad to hear it! For me, I never "missed" a show until I moved to NYC. When I lived in DC, I would read about shows, get psyched to come to NY, then make a trip up to experience the show live. Living here, Theater is one of the only positive things about moving from DC. So, when I find something like a show that can take me away from the stress of my job and the stress of how expensive it is, I take every chance I can to take advantage of the show. It's the same as if N2N were to close, I would miss the Goodmans. I like knowing that if I need to feel uplifted (like this summer, when I had the unexpected loss of a pet)...I go to the show and can count on being happy, sad, hopeful, etc. It's only possible for me with the shows that are available at a discount...I wouldn't miss Billy Elliot or Wicked if they left, because I can't afford to pop in and see those shows whenever I need a theatrical fix.
