Some good, some bad
"I have mixed feeling about the show. I loved that it was weird and had a strange story. The singing was excellent and the actors, in their multiple roles, were funny and fascinating. But the band music was so loud it drowned out many of the vocals. The band took up lots of the stage both physically and in terms of time and energy. As I thought about it I felt that it brought its off-Broadway style to Broadway and it just didn’t completely click. "
