I hope there is no cancellation for Schenectady. I have tickets (via the subscription series). Actually, Carolee is originally from Albany NY. (neighboring city to Schenectady). So this final Dolly stop would basically be like a home coming for her.
I sure hope she continues with the tour until the stop at Proctor's Theater in Schenectady, NY in May 2020. She is originally from Albany NY (right next door) so it would like a bit of a "homecoming" performance.
Saw the show on Friday afternoon. Overall, had a good time and enjoyed the show. (Been playing my old Cher abums all weekend)
I feel the three main problems of the show are the that is book is clunky at times.the choreography is very generic with no wow factor, and i just did not sense any chemistry with "Sonny and Cher".
spoiler alert: (lol) It was tough watching a grown woman play a 4 year old on a tricycle,
Now that previews have been in play for a while.... does anyone who has seen the show lately have the current running time? Trying to finalize some plans for after the show this weekend.
The curved versus flat was the one part of the set that I thought was different but I could not recall for sure. My guess is the design was changed to accommodate the different size stages at various theaters.
Saw the show this past Friday night in Schenectady. I am no expert on this show but the production seemed the same as when I saw it in NY. All the performances of the touring cast were excellent, as were the costumes and set. Great show!
Seeing the show tomorrow night at beautiful Proctor's Theatre in Schenectady NY. (Tour is starting here - they have been in residence getting the show ready for the last few weeks .) I will plan to report back. I have seen the show in NY. Looking forward to seeing it again.
Saw the revival Sunday night. I sat in the front row 23 years ago at the original production and cried during the last song and did the same the other night. This new production is outstanding. It seems hard to believe that the show is so different and yet brought back so many memories of the original. The entire cast is so energetic and every song was a treat. The stage band is also amazing.
If you are looking for a fun and enjoyable night out
I saw the show yesterday and loved it. I felt the first act needs to be trimmed and tightened a bit and the use of the ensemble was distracting at times. The second act was on fire. The score is wonderful and Eden and Carmen sell it all (as well as all the cast). Sure hope this finds a life in NY.
