Marguerite - 2008 Original London Cast

fshepinc wrote on July 22, 2008

Sorry, Amazon.com. I certainly wouldn't characterize the reviews as "ecstatic" -They were mixed, with most of the praise reserved for the performers and the sets. I sat through it recently. The whole thing was a colossal bore, staged by a director who'd never done a musical before (it looked like he'd never seen one, either). The talented cast did their best, but the book and score just aren't any good. The under 15 crowd in the audience loved it, but the grown-ups in the house sat stony-faced at the end. The man next to me refused to clap even during the bows. Not the worst thing I've ever seen, but a total bore.
