I saw Little Miss Sunshine ... in my opinion (the only one I have), it was not very good. I was not excited, moved to laughter or tears, thrilled, or engaged. Not one song stuck with me in any way afterward (and they don't have to be catchy ... I can say "boy, that Act One closer sure was beautiful" even if I don't remember how it went). It was just there.

I remember the theatre and where I was sitting far more than any element of the production.

That's so sad, and sounds sadly right given the life it's had. Though I am baffled as to why 2nd Stage was willing to mount it, with all the costs that go with it, when it was a dud at La Jolla.

I had very little interest in seeing a musical of that movie done. That being said, I would have gone to see it had I been in NYC and was able, or San Diego, while it was running. Actually I wasn't aware of it being in San Diego until it was too late.
