Speaking for the tour stop in Chicago, it would be easy for the causal theater goer to think they were going to see a traditional mounting of the show. Other than the vid on the Broadway in Chicago website, there was no attempt to educate audiences about the production. If one bought a season subscription, I don't imagine they were digging deeply to research each show. Unless you were keeping abreast of Broadway news, one really would have no idea what to expect.

Additionally, the reviews that I read of the tour were not great. Specifically, I remember criticism of the vocal abilities of the cast.

I knew what to expect and knew I was unlikely to enjoy it. I passed on seeing it.
