i also did not like it.
Thank you StanS for pointing out its not the be all and end all of MFL.
i found the set changes dumb, again actors and stagehands moving the set around.
the big turn table left the action playing over the moat of the apron.
i was just off center section and got tired of seeing the stagehands and dressers in the wing when the side rags flew up for the set change.
i hated her ball dress, what a disappointment. her hair don't a bun plop on the top of her head... what... they spent all the money on the dress, and a good hairdresser was out of Higgins price range...
the awning for the ascot scene upstaged the action... really it had to pivot and then pull up... wow it was a total focus pull
the accents were miss placed.
Higgins, a nice performance but i started to look at the cracks in the walls.
Best thing... the onstage band for the Ball, that was simply wonderful...
over all i am glad I saw it, but once will be enough.
send me back to Oklahoma.
