| My local theater here in Arizona (which cancelled the encore engagement of Bandstand last fall due to lack of sales) is showing it once, tonight, but not Sunday. I guess I should be glad we're getting it at all. | |

| I'd never had a desire to see the show on stage, but went to the Fathom screening tonight. WOW! I had a whale of a time. Impeccable cast. Just terrific. So glad I was able to see it. | |

| Me too. My friends and I loved it, as did the good-sized crowd in Danbury CT. It was such a treat to see everything up closer than I might see it in a stage production. Amazing dancing, delightful characters, touching story, eye-popping costumes, energetic songs - great fun. I might see it again. | |

| I saw it Tues. night in Bloomingdale, IL. Reminded me a lot of the '05 British film. The characterizations of Matt Henry and Killian Donnelly are much more like Chiwetel Ejiofor and Joel Edgerton rather than like Billy Porter and Stark Sands. Some years ago Harvey Fierstein was quoted as saying that Lola/Simon is not gay. I kind of got the impression that Henry's Lola/Simon may well be straight -- he seemed to be genuinely attracted to the women he danced with in the shoe factory. However, I believe Porter has stated that he considers Lola/Simon to be gay. |
