Carousel Tonight

I decided to go to Carousel this evening though I was given the option of past dating.

Just want to say Nicholas Belton as Billy and Rosena M. Hill as Nettie were both fine tonight and I didn't miss Henry or Fleming.

Belton had one moment when his mic fell off in the wrong direction while he was singing but he was able to make a quick adjustment until he could leave the stage to fix it.

I had forgotten that Belton had delighted me as Andrey and his father in The Great Comet.

I haven't seen the show since early April and I felt the show has improved and I enjoyed the whole evening. I felt Jessie Mueller has really grown as Julie, she no longer fades into the background.

There also have been a few small cuts. There is less of the Starkeeper and Mrs. Mullin doesn't appear at Billy's death--which I think was a smart deletion.

I saw the show in April from the rear mezzanine but today I saw the show from the rear orchestra which was a great view. The lighting is quite striking in the show.

I also did not find there was too much dancing tonight so I wonder if this has to do with pacing.
