Yes, the problem with the character of Sugar is not the actress. The rest were in fine form when I saw it at the beginning of the run.

Agree. In an otherwise pleasant score, her songs are very weak, never quite establishing her vulnerability. A major problem (although I otherwise enjoyed the show).

Women cannot be seen as vulnerable in today's world. Otherwise they are perceived as "victims" and men as unlikable "predators." Everyone today must be seen as a social justice warrior. The American theater is dead.

The most generous I can be is that it's an issue with both the character as written and with the actress currently playing it.
