There's more to life than "dispassionate Analysis."

I WELCOME and EMBRACE my own passionate responses.

They are why I go to the theatre. And I have a quite respectable IQ and am not without the capacity for analytical thinking.

However, I'm not trying to figure out a MATH problem - I'm reacting to art.

And I'd SHUDDER to live in a world where I didn't "Love" and "Hate" - kinda makes me know I'm ALIVE.

And you speak of "decisions." I'm not making a decision. I'm having a REACTION.

Frankly, most of my reactions to new musicals lately have been boredom. (A lot of what I felt at HONEYMOON in Vegas) So actually a good STRONG reaction either way would be welcome.

But I do suspect that when I can't WAIT for a show to be over - as was the case with this - that something is missing.

HATING it would have been better - at least it would have made a lasting impression.
