I saw this shit... er, show before x-mas, and I sat dead center in a perfect orchestra seat, and was instantly surrounded by hundreds of children. Everywhere. It was terrifying-- I mean, the thought alone of the millions of baby germs running wild in the theater made me gag.
Back to the recap: they spent a ton of money to make the computer animated film come to life on stage. The sets and props are perfect. The costumes great-- especially the fairy tale people. They performed on the View the other day, and each character's wardrobe is so incredibly detailed and witty. Kudos.
Plus, hot daddy, I mean Papa Bear-- Dennis Stowe has a cute little featured camera time. Next time, say hello to Barbara for me.
However, to say the Dragon is disappointing would be like saying that Times Square smells funny. You made everything else look good-- fix the fucking Dragon already...
The music is kind of forgettable, but somehow it works. I'm definitely beginning to dislike Sutton Foster much less than I used to. And for idiots who can work with a double negative, that's a compliment (in a casual, back-handed sort of way).
Basically, it's way better than watching, I don't know... say, an hour of the Real Housewives of NY.
