The best part? The scene changes: Lots of quick action, movement, cute costumes, new props and frills.
After that, the costume design and hair-dos. Live! On stage! Marge Simpson!.
The sets were outstanding: so many and varied, the color! The lighting was effective.
Which leaves the content. Yes, the content. Ahim (intentional). Not! Boorish, sophomorish, and just plain dull. Written by a male for a male audience only. Or, at least, that was the first act, since that's all we saw, leaving at intermission.
Thank goodness I was there for "pay what you can." Towards the end of the first act the audience laughter was minimal and what could be heard was stilted. Woolly can't win them all.
