I saw Women on the Verge at an early preview, and again at its final performance. There were significant changes (if I remember correctly, I think that the song order was quite different, and a different song ended Act I and began Act II at the different performances). If the show had had an out-of-town tryout, I think it would have helped tremendously. The show was also hampered by Sherie Rene Scott's performance as the lead, which was very low energy (which I think was a directorial decision).
I haven't seen Flying Over Sunset, but it sounds like an out-of-town tryout wouldn't have mattered that much. |
