I don't know. I'M ON THE WEST COAST AND WE DON'T MATTER.

Laura wasn't really offkey but was singing in a lower register than she normally does. In the regular show her and Max are not part of that number.

I just wish they did a better combination of numbers. Or like a mega-mix of lots of numbers...

I just felt embarrassed for Kathleen Marshall. That choreography was...embarrassingly bad. It wasn't good, wasn't bad, it was alright.

As I mentioned on another thread I've seen probably half a dozen high school productions of Grease. All but one of them as I recall had more real energy and a sense of fun that this number. This was like a group of robots programmed to move, sing, and smile.

I'm biased because I HATE this show...

But I thought the principals were decent enough, not as much energy as they should have, but when the ensemble came in, they were a bunch of robots that brought the energy level down further, which was disappointing.

Katheleen Marshall should be ousted from the Union for that "work"

It didn't start off good, but it didn't end all that bad. The choreography was fine.
