I also noticed that there was very little response to Vanya's tirade/aria in Act 2. When I saw it in its LCT run, there was a huge explosion of applause. In the video, it was quite more polite.

That being said, I wondered what I had liked about the play in the first place. The Cassandra character in particular seemed worse than ever and felt drafted from another play. Totally forgot it had won a Best Play Tony.

"That being said, I wondered what I had liked about the play in the first place."

Which only goes to show how much the response of the rest of the audience can affect our own feelings about a play, even if sometimes we don't like to admit that.

"The Cassandra character in particular seemed worse than ever and felt drafted from another play. "

Yes, and sorry to say, I only really understood about half of the lines spoken by that actor. Which was also the case when I saw the show live.
