Hey there BWWers, I have a question.
Last night I watched the entire series of the [title of show] show and loved every second of it. I can't wait to see the show when I return to NY in August, and I really want to buy the cast recording. I have one concern though. Will listening to the cast recording ahead of time ruin the show when I see it live? For example (and I think many of you can identify with this), knowing the Avenue Q score ahead of time ruins nearly all of the jokes when you finally see the show. I have found this is often the case with musical comedies. Does [tos] fall into the same trap? Should I avoid the cast recording until I see it, or will knowing the score ahead of time enhance the live performance? Thank you for your feedback!
