TOTALLY AGREE with everything you said - and then some. This 'production' moved at a glacial pace and I would personally like to flog the director Lee Blakeley for this bloated waste of my time and money. And yes: since when does Lovett stroll into the oven as if boarding a luxury liner? I could go on - and may in more posts - but to anyone buying a ticket well you'll 'enter at your own peril' - and/or waste of your time and money.


SFO did such a fine job with Show Boat last year...

Glad it's not my list to see. I have too many great productions of this Sondheim' masterpiece including a terrific one up at the Portland Opera Company some years back with Karen Morrow.
