Like you, I'm not a great fan of the Falsettos shows, and we share some of the same reservations about them. After the Encores! production, I think I actually prefer A New Brain to Falsettos. Not that I thought the Encores! production was better than the original, but it was good, and seeing the show a second time made me like it more.
Re the recent Broadway Falsettos, I felt virtually no sexual tension or chemistry at all between Borle and Rannells, at least not when watching it on TV. Never saw that production live. |
