I understand your take on it, even if it's not what I experienced. Though people thought the Queens production was very good, the fact is the show has been a failure. That makes the idea of this approach more interesting to me than Doyle's takes on Company and Sweeney Todd (though I can't say I disliked those either, knowing they won't replace the more traditional stagings). It seems to be a small story (though allegorical), and I don't know that it needs a cast of 80. But it has gotten me to get that studio cast recording out and I've been listening to it all week. And, gee, part of the magic of theatre is that two people can watch the same show and view it entirely differently. How boring All That Chat would be if we all felt the same ;)
