| On Stellar. Really nice cast. Drew Gehling is very Malcolm Gets-ish with a lovely voice. Other standouts for me were Thom Sesma and Rachel York. Done in the "Irish Rep" style, but more elaborate - Paris makes a nice backdrop for a presention done like this. I still love this score and show. |

| I enjoyed the presentation and it brought back memories of the original. I thought Gehling was perfectly cast and has a somewhat stronger singing voice than the delightful Malcolm Gets. This show needs another production at a small theater. Just as long as John Doyle doesn’t touch it. I saw a concert version of the show at NYU’s graduate school for musical performance and it came off well. It’s not a musical that requires expensive sets but it does need an imaginative director. I do like that it allows each cast member a moment to shine. |

| Delightful. Loved the cast, witty lyrics, and clever virtual sets and staging. Wish this production were available longer, since now that I've seen it, I'd recommend it to friends. |

| I agree - perhaps they'll bring it back at some point? | |

| Chromolume, This virtual production seems worthy of a wider audience in my opinion so hopefully it will show up again. Also, my husband and I were just discussing envisioning a Boston area live production whenever doable...... say Emerson's Em Stage? BoCo? Lyric Stage? |

| It actually did come up for consideration on Emerson Stage's short list this past year, but I think either at the time general streaming rights weren't available (probably because of this production) or it just got voted down. But I'd love to see it done in the area - and frankly, I'd love to be musical director for it. :-) | |

| It disappeared so quickly I didn’t have time to think about seeing it on Broadway but really enjoyed the cast album when I heard it. Glad to have had a chance to see it finally last night. | |

| Thanks, Ann. Have not seen this musical before, and was hoping to get a nudge to catch this production. Nudge received; booked a ticket for Sunday's 5 PM stream. |
