Yeah the finale is still there. I think they closed for more lighting/technical reasons then for actual blocking or re-staging. But yeah, awesome show!

Ha sorry to whip to up in a frenzy for no reason. All three are left in the show.
What I meant is that for the opening Young Shrek sees Young Fiona and walks on the turntable and that stuff instead of just standing there like he did before and saw the person on stilts,etc.
And for Fiona's rescue, it was just shorted and re-blocked than the way I've seen it youtube.
Again, this may be old news. theres barely ANY footage from the previews on youtube. only pre-b'way
Yeah I thought "

Oh sorry didn't see the second part of the question:
Fiona's transformation wasn't too hard to figure out how it's done. What was done is Fiona says something to the effect of "I can't do it" right before the Fairytales creatures storm on. then they do their dialogue while a body double for Fiona comes on veil down.

Yes, you are correct. I actually didn't know that they changed it from her just tapping in front of the curtain, so that was a surprise in itself. A great way to start off Act II. Sutton was just amazing. Amazing.

Dragon was awesome and was very creativly put together.
There was someone working the head of Dragon, probably from inside. As well as two wings, each controlled by an actor. In addition five scales that made up the body of Dragon were controlled by actors as well. Finally, a chorus of 3 women gave the Dragon a voice. In my opinion, it was better then a single person being credited as the Dragon.
And by controlled I mean puppeteering jobs.
Sorry if it's a little hard to understand I

I just got back from it just now. Awesome show, though I still think it has a few kinks to work out.
I'm not sure what the changes were becuase I haven't seen the show live nor seen many videos of it, but I'd love to answer anyone's questions =)

Hey everyone! I have a question that I hoped could be answered about "Omigod ..." Since they took out the "Hey, wait for me" bit, what's the new dialogue that fills that void. Thanks in advance!
