As I child, I should NOT have been watching this damn movie, but what can you do? SO when I was alerted there was a musical I was skeptical about seeing it. Cuz I don’t need a musical out of my favorite childhood movie, but maybe I do. To make the decision if I should go, I listen to the main title track, and poof! Decision was made. I did enter the lottery with broadway in Chicago, and I won. Sidenote, I’ve been winning for the matinee shows. The musical was good! Better than I thought it would, although I didn’t have any expectations going into it. Of course, some scenes were taken out, for time, and logistical restraints, but the show didn’t miss a beat.

The artists playing the characters were so good! My favorite song was/is Freedom. Its been on repeat since the show, I usually have a song or two that I’ll connect with front the show, then play it into the hole. I don’t know if its touring to eventually make it to Broadway, but I would’ve loved to see it in Los Angeles. I know the energy in the theatre would be hard to match anywhere else.

Jonez.
