Wow it’s a good few years since this was on but it was beautiful. The casting was perfect and it was all very nostalgic and evocative. Loved it. Don’t know why they ceased doing the live musicals
I've only seen it once but remember thinking it was "Masterpiece Theater meets Rodgers and Hammerstein". I recall it being a somewhat "dry" presentation.

I agree! The US version looked a bit under rehearsed, but it was joyful. The UK version looked a bit more realistic, and save for Maria Friedman who couldn't sing her role, it had a solid cast, but it was totally devoid of any joy.
