What a nice change of pace this show was. Well produced and enjoyable music. Susan Stroman is the director and choreographer, so you know it's going to be fun. I went with Aaron and my friend Voon. Being swing dancers, we were a little disappointed only in that the choreography for the Charleston was a little bland. Other than that, I loved it. I can never be in this show because I'm so short and not leggy….so sad.
The men's chorus and even the guy playing Cheech were HOT! Great voices and even better, amazing tap. I'm getting better at tap because I could do every step except the solos. The only weak link in this cast was Zach Braff but even he did a good job of playing the character that is obviously Woody Allen in a musical.
We sat in row Q on the sides of the mezzanine, so pretty much the second to last row in the whole place. They were too far back to see facial expressions but since it's a funny and big musical, the facial expressions are large and over the top.There was a song all about wanting someone's hot dog which was a big crowd pleaser, and I loved the men coming out in their garters wearing hot dog outfits.
