It's telling that many who are saying they loved it also say they had to drive from their tiny little towns to see it elsewhere. I'm sure this film will play strongest to middle america.
The Potter references to her are expected, but underwhelming. She's been acting and singing long before Potter. Do your research.
She chews scenery worse than LuPone. She also has issues with going one-note in live performances. She can't play a wide range, but instead goes balls out from the getgo. It's annoying.
Her Dolly will be... Interesting. But likely more entertainin
What many non-eq shows do in their advertising is paramount to outright deception. 'Direct from Broadway' or something similar. And the prices... Total crap
...All basically the same. All less interesting than the one before it.
Not that this is a review of the Pasadena version we're talking about here, but... Open Air Theatre in Regent's Park did a London production that was not only very different, but most definitely not less interesting than ones before it.

I predict she'll be a steaming hot mess. She doesn't sing live (well, as a 'pop star' and the majority of her dancing is sticking out her ass and grinding.
I'd be curious to see how much they cut down the choreo for her.
Drag Race is popular, but people have short memories. Those two aren't marquee names and they've been off TV long enough for the kids to have basically forgotten them.
To remain relevant, you've got to have relentless social media drive... And neither of them are doing it quite like some of the more long-term popular contestants.
