As everyone has noted, this show arrives with a star, and the star is still the event. But bigger picture issues here, beyond Menzel's departure (which will come one day): isn't the title "If/Then" with its odd punctuation and stubby shorthand less attractive than it might be? It's accurate in terms of content, but it's hard to imagine anyone being curious -- with $138 in their hand -- about a show dubbed "If/Then." "Once" is poetic, "If/Then" chilly.
