I agree with most of that. I would also include Tom Hewitt as a stand out. And there's a bonus of seeing Jessica Molaskey in the ensemble.
Unfortunately, I think part of the focus problem is probably the size of the Lady Chablis role. I can see why they excpaned it - for Ghee's performance and because the main story probably isn't enough for a whole musical. But now, it seems like alternating betwee two different shows.
