Again, I don't disagree with the assessment that the review is a 100% rave. And personally, I loved the show. I certainly am not making an argument that the quote is out of context, in a way that misleads an observer about what Isherwood thougt of the show. In fact, I'm not making an argument at all. I was just asking whether or not, in the world of marketing, this is an "acceptable" alteration.

Yes, it was a rave. But you can quote accurately from a rave rather than distort it to make parts of it sound even better.

True. And this comes on the heels of promoting a live Act I finale simulcast in Times Square, which was really taped.
