What I liked
EVERY. THING. LITERALLY. THIS. SHOW. IS. MIND. BLOWING.
What I didn't like
There was an underutilized accompanist on stage. 99% of the songs were tracks, so there was no need for the accompanist, and even the guitar/piano duet would have been perfectly fine without the piano accompaniment. I would have loved to have heard the music live if the accompanist is there; otherwise, it was a distraction for me for a while because I was trying to figure out early on why he wasn’t playing. But eh, the show’s so good that I really don’t care.
My overall impression
This show is unbelievable. Mind-blowing. Powerhouse performances all around, the parody is not only that, but also a sophisticated, darkly comedic, and thoroughly organized take on an already ridiculous situation that it feels like a true Broadway production. IT’S THAT GOOD.
