It amazes me that Lestat wasn’t so bad that it was good, but apparently it was just bad. I’ll never truly know I bought tickets for the week after it closed. I was ready to have a jolly good time

Oh, yeah I thought Color Purple was boring too. I was trying SO hard to like it cause I knew someone who was in it, but no.

A really bad high school production of Oklahoma tops the cake...
But also:
Cats
For the Glory (The Civil War re-incarnate at Gettysburg)

Posted: 2/21/07 at 11:46pmAs thrilling as the simplistic set and wooden chairs were, I was close to snoring during "Sweeney Todd" during those moments sans factory whistles.

Posted: 2/21/07 at 11:51pmTHE VIOLET HOUR was pretty agonizing, as was SEE WHAT I WANNA SEE and BERNARDA ALBA.

Posted: 2/21/07 at 11:55pmJulius Ceasar was dreadful. Great cast... but I had a really hard time making it through that one.

Ditto on not understanding why people said CAROLINE OR CHANGE. It was brilliant.
I like DROWSY, but I can understand why one can find it boring. But CAROLINE? So that I can sleep tonight, I'm just going to assume that anyone who said that show is under 15 years of age.

Posted: 2/22/07 at 12:12am1776- the first Broadway play that I left during intermission, tops my list. Les Miz, Mamma Mia, Rent, and Chicago only when Melanie Griffith was in it- killed the show!!!! The original cast is the only cast that rocked!!!! Melanie can't shine Ann Reinking boots!!!

Bring in the Noise, Bring in The Funk, The Sunshine Boys, The Little Foxes, The Invention Of Love.
Granted I saw all these from 11-14 years old. I'm sure my feelings on at least some of them would be different now (well ok, maybe only the latter two)

Posted: 2/22/07 at 12:37amJust saw Dying City tonight. I think we have a new winner. To borrow a line from Stagegrrrl, I was praying for my own death by the halfway point.

Kiss Me Kate (only show i've ever left at intermission), Chicago (just a bad show.. great movie and overall story i guess, bad stage show), Nine Armenians (fell asleep), Sugar (fell asleep)..
that's about it. for now :)

Foster-
I would usually never tell someone to abandon their tickets when they've already paid for them, but I would seriously consider you to do so in this case. This show is quite possibly the most boring, varied, solipsistic, overacted mess I've ever seen.
