First off, if you love musicals, then you will absolutely love the show. Now, if you criticize the show because you think it's too hokey, or parodies things too much, or goes a little too far, and then even over the top, well, you're missing the point of the show. It's being produced by Lorne Michael's, what do you expect?
It's a little bit of Oklahoma, Carousel, The Music Man, and of course Brigadoon, all rolled into one. The cast is extraordinary, and the songs, actually quite catchy. Even the choreography is quite entertaining.
The only weak part of the show; they didn't cast me! LOL!
