Posted: 8/5/04 at 3:26amI sat through the charmless revival of "Flower Drum Song". Lea Salonga was just playing Kim all over again - - minusn the guts. THe set was lame and cheap, the dance sequences too long and the book clumsy. I don't regret seeing it - - it's paying full price that really got to me!

I saw Dance of The Vampires and it didn't do very well. It wasn't a favorite of mine but I hold that the draw bridge was incredible as well as the lovely sky backdrop (the clouds moved along the back and it was really beautiful.). -Penny
UPDATE- Oh and when the main guy and the vampire are dancing infront of the mirror!!! There was a lone guy standing in the "mirror" doing all the choreography perfectly on his own. That was so awesome!

Posted: 8/5/04 at 11:13amI saw the national tour of Aspects of Love based on the Toronto minimalist staging and it remains my favorite Lloyd Webber show and one of my all-time favorite musicals. It was a gorgeous production.

Posted: 8/5/04 at 11:17am"Harold and Maude" was not a musical. It was a play based on the movie, starring Janet Gaynor.

I saw Dance of the Vampires the same night as Mayor Ruddy G.
Saw Taboo too.
Personally loved them both.

Posted: 8/5/04 at 5:08pmThe Papermill playhouse in Jersy is putting Harold and Maude up next year with Estelle Parsons (I 99% certain it with her). O fcourse it's promo material but you would think it wa a big hit when it ran on broadway...

I loved Jane Eyre -- it deserved a real run!

Posted: 8/5/04 at 5:10pmI saw Big the Musical and Seussical. Both really good shows. Deserving a second chance.

Posted: 8/5/04 at 8:18pmActually, the Paper Mill's "Harold and Maude," with Estelle Parsons, is being touted as an original musical--so it is not a revival of the straight play starring Janet Gaynor (although they may be using it as the basis for the book). I won't even try and guess what Parson's singing voice is like--but I will be there to see this thing!

Posted: 8/6/04 at 4:32amDance of the Vampires shouldn't have failed. It was an awesome musical, in Vienna, but Michael Crawford destroyed it
