Sorry, that was not my point... it is not the hearing and understanding, but the actual using of the accent by the actor, it is a tough accent to perform and in London, to me, just sounds off. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Come from Away would be AWESOME and considering that the actual show is only 1 hour 45 minutes with no intermission and minimal sets, it would be easy to do. I absolutely love that show and want to see it again when it returns to Florida in the spring. You go from tears to laughter, sadness to joy, it is an amazing show. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My daughter and I hated to admit it, but we saw Hamilton and CFA within six months of each other and we agree, CFA is superior. Hamilton has amazing music, but you can get all that listening to the soundtrack. CFA is so much more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Other than the subject matter (Biblical) it pretty much checks all of the boxes. My friend was in the Original Cast. This would be an easy show to pull off as the set simple, but as you mentioned, the subject matter is VERY adult, and the lyrics are explicit. 10 hours ago, air7700 said: Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dream coat. Or Million Dollar Quartet. Good music and family friendly. I can get behind Joseph. Big fan of Pharoah and his wife. Damn Yankees is good as well.

gaylemh Posted October 9, 2019 #132 Share Posted October 9, 2019 I would love to see West Side Story or Beautiful. Sound of Music would be wonderful, but they could never do it because of all the kids. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare John&LaLa Posted October 10, 2019 #145 Share Posted October 10, 2019 I dont mean to rain on everyone's parade, but the second biggest complaint for CATS is the length. Hamilton, Les Miz, and Wicked are longer Chicago and Phantom are about the same. It seems most real musicals are at least as long as CATS Some folks suggested shorter versions, but that just seems wrong Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Countless people have said time and again they won't waste 2.5 hours on a show. Oh, and we walked out of Chicago on Allure. Got bored Personally, I miss the old way of doing shows. They just did one or two songs from a half dozen musicals Evita Phantom Fiddler CATS And a couple more that skip my mind Usually ran under an hour Edited October 10, 2019 by John&LaLa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the show was enjoyable, people would not mind sitting through it.

Probably why Royal shortened it to 90 minutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
