There were glowing dildos in that one weren't there? And Alan Cumming seemed to think stuffing a salami in his pants would take care of his characterization (ok, maybe it wasn't a salami).
I thought Nellie McKay came off the best, quirky and acting to some strange music that was paying in her head.
Poor Cyndi Lauper was hung out to dry and didn't know what she was playing in her few scenes. Even the divine Jim Dale, I found unintelligible because he danced and did bits while he was singing instead of before or after. I didn't understand one word and since it was a new translation for me, that was a shame.
