High school spring musical...
I have genuinely been more entertained at a high school spring musical - have been to many Broadway shows and have always been a fan of La Cage but walked away disappointed. Mr. Hodges was a true talent who unfortunately had no back up on stage. On top of the unenthusiastic show, having to deal with the seat nazis in the balcony gave a bad taste right off the bat....nasty nasty women who were there to police and perform as little as possible for the people paying their salaries....should they not be trained as ambassadors and not wardens? True stereotypes of "New Yorkers" which do nothing to dispel the myths... A highlight was the drag queen interacting with the audience before the show... ... Read more

Terrific show!
Saw this show (08/20/10) on a whim ... sat up in balcony and had no complaints about our view. I don't think I'd take a child but merely because of the content.
The show had me laughing from beginning to end, but also awed me with the dancing. While I'm not a supporter of guy rights, the underlying message gave legitimacy to the tenderness and validity of relationships, regardless of their structure. After the show we were outside of the theater when the cast exited and it was wonderful to see how appreciative and pleased the cast was with their audience. Mr. Hodge and Kelsey Grammer both took the time to sign audographs and pose for pictures. This, of course, added to the splendor of the night. If you want to see a terrific, funny show - you've got to go!! ... Read more
