So, he sees it as bad theater that may make a lot of money. Not understanding the issue here? He clearly does not like the show but thinks it will make money. Done. Out. Thank you for your thoughts. Is the focus here about how to classify the review in terms of box office or art?
Are we talking about marketing or theater? As a product, it is a favorable review. As theater it is a pan. Oh...yuck, how disgusting.

Fear: Are theatre critics now going to start reviewing a shows marketability instead of, or inclusive of, their artistry. Oh my God, please tell me no. Though they have been suckered by slick products for years,are we now going to see critics trending towards a focus on whether something is successful as a product when dealing with Broadway? Could this be a tactic for the security of their job? Oh...going to stop now. Truly repulsed spending anymore time thinking about your need to clarify his reveiw.But if you, Jesse 21, do not see this review as a pan for the artistry, then I think you may be more at home on a board focusing on the market value of soup can labels. I mean seriously, why the spilt focus.he hates the show. Done.it can make money. So what? That splits the review. Yuck...in a big way.
