I loved it. And it was unusual in that it was a true ensemble: multiple story lines with the sophisticated intersection of multiple musical themes (think of an extended "A Weekend in the Country"). There were some very clever directorial tricks and a cumulative effect of the tragedy, heightened as we watched it happening to the many (rather than, as in the movie, as it happened to a select couple). And there was an excellent cast of not-yet-well-knowns including the dizzyingly daffy turn by Victoria Clark (a GREAT clown) as the first-class-wannabe passenger.
