So disappointed
by Zaph on 5/1/24Boch Center Wang Theatre - BostonHaving seen other reviews on the internet, it's pretty clear that most people seem in one of two camps - either having cult-like support of the show, or like me, are left wondering why anyone thinks this is a great show. I'm not generally a musical fan, but I have really enjoyed standout shows like Chicago, Moulin Rouge, Wicked, Hamilton and the Book of Mormon. This show's songs, energy, staging, and choreography are leagues worse than any of those shows. And there were weird or off-putting things; the house band staying (and taking up room) on stage, the horrible pauses while cast members seemed to deliberately solicit applause from the audience. Lastly overall to me it seemed like a terrible mashup of metropolis and Greek mythology, and I think the concept is poor and poorly designed and executed.
