| I get the concept. I even think the execution is mostly clever and spatially intriguing with the bold design. But -- a significant but -- this musical number is one of the most exciting in the last 60 years, genuinely thrilling when it builds well. It's hard to feel that from this. And for me, the use of the cell phones just reads as repetitive and somehow overkill in the updating; it grows precious. Individual players -- LuPone, and then Andy and Paul, who end up with the best story beat -- don't come off well. But some of us have complained about the costumes before and been smacked down for supposedly not understanding that this is what NYC looks like. I stand by my reservations. The costuming doesn't help here. A positive: Lenk's singing is fine here. I wish more were going on around it. |
