It's a shame that The View doesn't promote Broadway as much as they used to. We hardly see any musicals performing on the show.
I always enjoy it when they have Broadway guests though. I've also noticed that Sunny Hostin is an avid theatre-goer! Whenever a guest (specially actors in straight plays) comes to the show, she's seen the production.
I saw Frozen last Saturday and, while I enjoyed the musical, I wasn't a big fan of the production. The same happened with The Little Mermaid back when I saw it in 2008. I then saw Glenn Casale's staging and thought the show worked way better than on Broadway.
Have you seen any regional production of a Disney musical that stood out on its own/didn't make you miss the original?
I also really liked the shortened versions of Beauty and the Beast a
