Oh, no. I've seen it--we may have different tastes--and the production is contemporary, AS IT SHOULD Be. Sondheim has made some small lyric changes to update the songs but by very little. (There's no more answering service; the song mentions texting instead. The flight attendant in "Barcelona" is named Andy and when Bobbi can't remember his name, she sings Randy. Quite as good as "June/April".) As to the singing, many songs, particularly Bobbie's, in this production have a character revelation. I thought it was great. I wouldn't want this version to be the only Company that is ever mounted again, but it is really, really good.
