Boy, did you nail it. It’s the charm that’s missing. And it’s a show ABOUT a charmer, isn’t it. The whole show needs us to be charmed. And we so want to be. But there’s a giant red wall in the way. The symbolism of that wall, of how the charm is inaccessible, how there’s a detached quality to the entire thing. From the get go, we’re in trouble.
Someone else above mentioned the bust-ups. I couldn’t agree more. Completely unprofessional and entirely manipulative and desperate.
Why TF is there a tap number? Hugh’s ego demanded it? Come on. And did I mention how much woe I wish upon the “creatives” that cut a song from a classic American score? I can’t tell you the depth of my disdain for those individuals who cut “It’s You”. The f*cking gall. Cut the unnecessary tap number and put “It’s You” back in.
Just UGH. |
