| I Googled and couldn't find a direct quote about it, but my experience seeing the show at The Public is that the authors were putting the audience into a dance club where the characters had pretty much no dialogue with each other. They just sang songs, mostly into handheld mics. Creating a disco nightclub experience including recorded music was the obvious intention. | |

| I hear you, but I'm not sold. What would The Drowsy Chaperone have been in such a "realistic" rendering. Just Man In Chair and a record player, with tracked music. And it would have been awful. | |

| I would think The Drowsy Chaperone might have been lip-synced with a period-sounding recording, which might have been interesting. | |

| No, that would have been awful. And as un-theatrical as you can get. | |
