In the film, Kidd's choreography is great, thought the artificial sets bother me, though they are used whenever characters are on the street throughout the film which detracts from the film. I've seen productions without the Kidd choreography where sometimes it seems to go on too long. I realize the stage directions are in the script for a lot of the action, but not many choreographers come up to Kidd's artistry. Also saw a wonderful production by the National Theatre in London which during the Overture had the credits of the cast in lights given like a movie, which was rather clever. The rest of the staging very well done, and Bob Hoskins and Julie McKenzie were superb. No problemo for WSS.
