I saw the original production twice. It was riveting, funny, heartbreaking. The acting was beyond superb, and the direction and entire production imaginative and breathtaking. It was one of the greatest theatre experiences I have ever had. The hysteria around getting tickets was epic. I distinctly remember at the last performance, which I was lucky enough to see, people were literally begging for tickets. I was offered $1,000 for mine. No, I didn't take it. There were cops everywhere and it wasn't worth taking the chance. Besides, had I taken it, I wouldn't have seen it the second time. When it came back the following year, it wasn't nearly as popular, and, from what I understand, not as good.
