Violet

 Ouch this show sucked. I wanted to like it. I know a couple of songs from the show from both the Broadway channel and AMDA. We went because Hiptix offered $25 and Aaron had never seen Sutton Foster perform. I wish he had seen Anything Goes or Millie to really see how she shines and commands a stage.

The cast, though small, was incredibly talented. No one was slacking off. The problem was the material. The story is of Violet, a woman with an axe wound across her face (not shown in the show).  She takes a bus across the states to meet with a televangelist to "cure" her. Along the way, she meets other bus riders, including 2 soldiers who fight over her. (Aaron found this to be a bad show based off the fact that she's so ugly that everyone back home makes fun of her, but 2 soldiers that just met her fight over her like hungry wolves.)

We had great seats and the theater wasn't full. It's closing in a week, so I am assuming it wasn't popular. The American Airlines theater always plays older friendly shows. We sat on the right side, row H.
