I've lost so much patience with anything structured like an NPR info piece that I skipped around in the segment. Especially the parts where I have to listen to Bono and Edge being interviewed. I'm sure it would entertain me. Short attention span and all.
I saw The Lion King by the same director/designer and I have to say it was pretty amazing.
I think it would be neat to see the actors flying around above the audience. Perhaps the recent preview they performed that went horribly was designed to lower expectations.
Still, I have to agree with Ellis that this has all the earmarks of a colossal flop.
You have to admire the woman's comments that she loves artistically risky projects; that she loves it when people tell her, "Oh, that's a bad idea." But so much depends on the music, and what little is heard, I can't say it excited me. Still, I say it deserves to succeed and become the "Avatar" of Broadway musicals.

I can't wait until they do the figure skating version.
That looks incredibly bad. They should have gone about a billion dollars cheaper and done what theatre can do with just lighting and a few sets.
No no no! You guys, you guys, you guys, we saw this 60 Minutes segment on T.V. and it looks incredibly cool! I love it, I want it. Seriously!
