Posted: 2/22/07 at 1:36amGrey Gardens (off-Broadway...I haven't gotten up the courage to brave the Broadway production), The Frogs, Umbrellas of Cherbourg (although it could have just been that the set changes were longer than the scenes themselves).

Posted: 2/22/07 at 1:45amI highly disagree with your posts about Dying City, as I just put up my review praising it. Ha - but everyone is entitled to their opinions.

As much as I love the music and as much as I loved it the four times I saw it before... (Three Broadway and once on tour)
A production of THE SCARLET PIMPERNEL at this little theater in "pennsyltucky" York, PA. The leads (except for the bad guy) where snooze fest city!

I had been thinking it would have to be a tie between the second act of SHIPWRECK and all of SALVAGE, basically the half of COAST OF UTOPIA dominated by Brian F. O'Byrne, and RING OF FIRE, the horrific Johnny Cash catalogue show.
But then I remembered DEMOCRACY and VINCENT IN BRIXTON. Two snooze a minute British imports. Unforgiveable.

Posted: 2/22/07 at 7:59amI was bored by A Chorus Line. And I have never liked POTO.

a production of Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat that my cousin was in (this is the same one who got dragged to the revival of Cabaret). Let me put it this way:
When I asked my dad if it was intermission and he said yes, I said, "Oh, thank God for that!"

Posted: 2/22/07 at 10:44amI absolutely second Phantom of the Opera... but what takes the cake was 1776.

Posted: 2/22/07 at 10:59amCarnival! at the Papermill Playhouse in NJ. That would have been the first and only show I could have slept through/ left. But I stayed because, you know, it's rude to leave.

Posted: 2/22/07 at 11:24amThe Music Man, yes it's a classic and it's loved by all generations, but I can't sit through this.

Posted: 2/22/07 at 11:39amhmm...I personally can't stand The Wizard of Oz. But also The Marriage of Bette and Boo (even though my high school won the cappie for it), second half of Into the Woods, Awake and Sing, Anna in the Tropics...can't think of any more right now.

Posted: 2/22/07 at 11:42amTitanic, Lestat, and Phantom, but Phantom only because when I went, all the lead actors were sick and the understudies did it. It sucked.

Mamma Mia - loved the music but hated the show
Cats - horrible and tired
Spelling Bee - I just could not get into it and I really tried. The night I saw it, tour cast tried too hard for laughs..they would hold in places where there should be laughter but there was only silence. AWKWARD...

Posted: 2/22/07 at 12:33pmOh I forgot about "The Woman in White"! THAT tops my list, of Broadway snoozefests anyway. The man next to me literally fell asleep on the downbeat of the overture! That's basically all I remember of the show!

Posted: 2/22/07 at 1:26pmI was ready to gnaw my arm off during Passion, I was so bored. I walked out of Timbuktu, even though Eartha Kitt was fun, I fell asleep at The Little Match Girl and Harold and the Purple Crayon at the Children's Theatre in Minneapolis and I resented paying $32.50 for Patti Lupone in Master Class, because the play is brilliant, but she never captured Callas' greatness. She just blabbered out her lines.
