I found Porgy and Bess, Hair and Pippin to be very lowbrow. I learned nothing about the pieces I didn't already know.
Pippin's concept of circus was imposed on the piece and wasn't an original idea. I enjoyed the circus that kept interrupting the musical that was also happening.
Porgy and Bess was surrounded by controversy. I saw the first preview where Paulus's concept was still in full view - it was a nightmare. It was a watered down version of what the show can be. I went back to see it later and it was only slightly better.
Hair had no edge and was so poorly staged.
