We saw the musical in NYC today. Our expectations were high when we went in based on the reviews and awards it had been getting. I'm always cynical about reviews because I think my review is the only one that counts.
Is "Brilliant" too strong of a word?
And to all of those folks criticizing it because it's "offensive" - without actually having seen it.. Zip It. Yes - it's adult humor - but not pornographic. Yes - it uses some dialogue (in song) that consists of four letter words directed towards "God" - and it's frickin' hilarious!
By the end I had tears in my eyes. (another advantage of being a Gay man...I can put in print that I had tears in my eyes at a Broadway musical). I think I actually called the ending "Beautiful"...(another word a Gay man can get away with after seeing a Broadway musical).
Did I mention that it's "Brilliant"?
