| I totally agree-I saw her filmed production years ago and it was terrible except for Jenna Russell's Mary.I was lucky enough to see the original production and no matter what anyone says it was heartbreaking.Those kids were all giving it their heart and soul and it showed in the energy of the show.Aside from the three splendid leads here, nothing seems worthwhile. I cringed every time Gussie,Beth and Joe came on,they were SO OVER THE TOP! And if I had to hear Frank Jr scream daddy one more time-yikes.The sets and costumes were horrible too-what was up with all those moo moos in the first scene? When Hillary introduced Suffs on Tony night,it looked like she had borrowed her gown from that first scene.....So all in all I hope Maria Friedman stays on her side of the Atlantic -I'll be content listening to the OBC of the original cast or just the Jonathan,Daniel and Lindsay parts of the new OBC. | |
