Posted: 7/22/13 at 9:08pmYou might want to put a question mark in your subject line. Otherwise it sounds like there's an actual production.

"The Spectacle has, indeed, an emotional attraction of its own, but, of all the parts, it is the least artistic, and connected least with the art of poetry. For the power of Tragedy, we may be sure, is felt even apart from representation and actors. Besides, the production of spectacular effects depends more on the art of the stage machinist than on that of the poet."

How about we not open the show in Vegas.
I don't agree just because a show is successful on Broadway means it should open in Vegas. Vegas isn't always the best outlet for musicals, even the "popular" ones.
