Damn Yankes scripts - 12:15PM on 7/11/2008

Be grateful you got to see an untampered script. We in LA had to sit through Jason Alexanders unfunny, illogical updating of the script to 1980s Los Angeles yes, the Dodgers, not the Senators! at Reprise! last year. It still hurts to think about.

Enjoyed the show, but loved "South Pacific"!!!!

I always said if they gave lead character the name of Joe Heart -the song "Youve Got To Have Heart" would have greater meaning.

No GYPSY, but pretty good - 11:25AM on 8/08/2008

I thought this was an okay production. I thought out of the "tv" peeps Jane fared the best. I thought her dancing was actually good for a truncated rehearsal period, though her vocals were a tad lackluster for me. They did a great job of making it more a period piece, so that was interesting. I liked it, but it definitely was no Gypsy.
