Deserving of the Tony’s won!
"The staging, Darren’s intentional mannerisms and the understudy of Claire (named Claire) that we saw are all highlight of this show. I don’t think the music is particularly memorable…I couldn’t remember much of any song by the time I reached 42nd and 6th…but everything else is imprinted in my brain. "
