Sure, it's all a bit over the top and baroque... but that's what makes it great. Legolas Send a noteboard - 26/04/2020 10:05:31 AM

There's a rather meta line somewhere in the musical that goes: 'You'd never get away with all this in a play, but if it's loudly sung and in a foreign tongue, it's just the sort of story audiences adore, in fact a perfect opera!'.

Well, exactly. Although I guess for you it wouldn't be a foreign tongue, but still.

Really? I think it's pretty great, among my favourite musicals that aren't Hamilton. *NM* Legolas - 22/04/2020 08:11:36 PM 542 Views
It's pretty obscenely overwrought and melodramatic. But there are very pretty bits. *NM* Ghavrel - 26/04/2020 04:08:20 AM 542 Views
