Oh I love the score (except they cut my favorite scene) and would gladly go see it. That said, I'm not the typical theatergoer. I like smaller, darker musicals (I wager 95% of the board could name my top 5 musicals of all time). The key audience demographic here won't buy into this show unless you put A-listers in the leads.

Here's my guess for your 5 favorite musicals: Sweeney Todd, Next to Normal, Fun Home, Urinetown, and The Scottsboro Boys. Am I close?

Hint: I like Sondheim a lot but Sweeney isn't my favorite. (Next to Normal and Fun Home are correct.)
