In my opinion, no. It's cute if you have the extra time. It was a must see for me because I have been a fan of Julia Murney since...well let's say an extremely long time, but other than that I don't think so.

Wonder if we’ll hear proshot news soon as well. I’d like to think the cast album will be released close to the Disney+ capture, following the Diana model.
The email blast for those on the mailing list says that the screening will happen on Saturday morning at 11:15am. I was already going but this makes me even more excited to go. I just hope it doesn't run during other panels I want to sit in on.
I was there yesterday. The pro-shot looks really good though the sight lines in the ballroom were horrible. They were only showing it on one screen so unless you were on that side of the room and closer to the front, your view was likely obstructed.
I also think they need to update the credits as they basically had them on a basic black background. But the show itself looked and sounded great. I had to leave to catch a matinee so I missed the one hour talkback afterwards so I don't know if anything was said about wider distribution. But Jodi Picoult, Arielle Jacobs, and Julia Murney were all in the room watching the pro-shot with us.
