The Broadway production closed earlier this year, right? Seems like it's been a while, anyway, but I admit I don't keep up with that stuff very well.

I saw it on Broadway and was unimpressed. The actors seemed stifled by a need to maintain the familiarity of the movie. They did the best they could with what little of their own they could put into it. Frau Blucher was fantastic. Megan Mullaly was crap. I was highly unimpressed and very sad to see her phone it in. She acted like she was God's gift to theater and that we were privileged to be in her presence. I did not get to see Shuler Hensley. Though I will say the spectacle was great.

I liked the show a lot, it was funny, cute and the "Puttin' on the Ritz" number was FANTASTIC!
It's coming on tour to San Francisco in a few months. Is it stopping in Salt Lake? It's a cute show, but totally understandable why it didn't have a long-run in NYC. |

I'd go to see it if it stops in Utah. I love the movie, and would hope they do Mel Brooks' ideas justice.
