Posted: 12/1/04 at 12:58pmI don't think much of the show, it felt to me like 30-odd random songs somewhat about the story but without any real musical narrative, but it's still worth seeing.

Posted: 12/1/04 at 1:03pmI saw the DC production last spring a few times- it was very enjoyable. To whoever asked, Karen Olivio and Becca Ayers were among the cast members. I much preferred Becca (as a vocalist) over Stephanie Mills' on the American Premiere Recording. I never saw Stephanie perform the role though, so I am only going by the recording.

I was in this show about a year and a half ago.. It's an amazing show.. As long as the cast is strong the audience will probably be in tears.. That was one of our achievements, we always had people crying in the audience. It isn't a dialogue heavy show, it's mainly music..
I wouldn't miss it if I were you!
