    Well, that was definately interesting.

    Not bad, I was really impressed with the cast’s singing, they did very well. From what I understand that particular music/lyric writer writes very challenging and difficult to sing pieces.

    The really interesting thing was that Helena was pregnant throughout the whole thing, and they had to keep changing her dress up larger in porportion so her condition would not show. I think they did very well on that too.

    The blood was a bit much, but the story was intersting, the music challenging, and there was some dark humor in there that was hilarious!

    Overall I liked it, but wouldn’t watch it very often.

    My favorite musical of all time still remains Phantom of the Opera.

    I’ve got this on the way from Netflix, can’t wait to see it! I heard one of the songs “My Friend” I think-Johnny Depp sounds really good 😀

    While hiding somewhere in my head I'm on the lookout for white oriental dragons! Please let me know if you know of any available. Thank you!

    Me too! The music is wonderful.

    Music of the Night is my absolute favorite.

    I’ve never seen Phantom of the Opera? I really should one of these days. The last musical I saw was “The Lion King.” Kyrin, would you recommend “Sweeney Todd”?

      Sweeny Todd is on my to see list. Which keeps getting longer, and longer.

      I loved Phantom, saw it 4 times on stage. Saw and loved the Lion King on stage too.

      I loved the older version of Sweeny Todd with Angela Langsbury and George Hearn. Lots of subtle humor and innuendo, This new one is too gory for my taste.
