I was there last night as well. I think it would be better as a ont act 1:45 minute show. Boil act one down to the essentials and stick with most of the far stronger second act. I think the main problem is the score. The music is nice but only two songs in act one really serve the story or are theatrical in any way. The songs in the second act are better integrated with story and character. I loved the cast. Everyone was superb.
