I was there last night as well. I had low expectations but was happily surprised. The production is tight and in good shape. It was a delight to see the show again - we saw it on its first (revival) tour a few years ago. I was very pleased with John O'Hurley who charmed the audience from the get go. Strangely, enough I found the weakest members of the cast were the two female leads. It was sad to see the ensemble so tight in a Fosse-esque move - except for one dancer. The lead. However, the material and production is so good that it was OK.
