Dirty Rotten Scoundrels

"Kids Night on Broadway" is a great idea and I am so glad that all these little ones are getting to see live theater. Note to self: Stay away next time.
The musical has one of the weakest openings I have ever seen. How can a such a big budget show have such a lame opening, un-memorable dance number? I usually like Jerry Mitchell's work. His choreography in Never Gonna Dance saved that show. Here it was nothing. 16 dancers doing nothing. What a waste of talent and stage space.
Norbert Leo Butz: the best thing in the show. Over the top. Like musical theater's Jack Black. Frenetic. Doing all he can to save a stupid musical.
Jonathan Price: I kept hoping Michael Cain would walk out of the audience and onto the stage and say, excuse me Mr. Price, it should be like this...
Joanna Gleason: Ever since I saw her true colors at the Public last year, I can't stand her. Ungrateful and full of herself. And she can't dance. They had to design a long flowing dress to conceal the fact that she can't move.
Sherri Rene Scott: Love her voice. Nice job.
The set was too little, the music was bland, our seats sucked, but I still would rather be in a Broadway theater than anywhere else.
The CD release party after. Meeting Sondheim, LuPone, Cerveris, Felciano, and the rest of that brilliant cast. Standing on that stage looking up at what they look at 8 times a week. Goose bumps. Amongst legends.
And then home to the one I love. The perfect ending. What started as a dud of a night rises to something extraordinary.
