I'm sure we've all seen it but the new ads/artwork are pretty cool I think. The Producers clearly acknowledge that Idina is riding this show completely on her shoulders and are taking advantage of it accordingly.

I too like the new artwork but I agree it makes it look like "The Idina Menzel Show". I guess it was to be expected but I wish they could highlight the entire cast. I love Idina but there are so many talented people in the show that I feel get overlooked.

She is the star of the show. And on top of that, the main selling point. The cast is amazing, but they won't put butts in the seats.

I think it is a bit much but yes, she is the star of that show and carries it. Of course I wanted to see her but was more excited to see LaChanze, Tamika and Anthony.
Just give the world Love.

As if people on the TKTS line are saying, "I'd like to see that new musical by the creative team of NEXT TO NORMAL; I don't know who might be in it, but I so admire their work, I'd go just to find out what they've been up to. Oh, and I hear actors in THE COLOR PURPLE and YOU'RE A GOOD MAN CHARLIE BROWN have featured roles."
