Got to go see this last month. The poster is something one of my best friends got for me...from a cork board at HideAway Pizza on Cherry Street.
OK, just got home from the show. Here are my 2 cents or 3 or 4. I loved it. It was modernized from the music that I know and love. Some of the musical and vocal arrangements were altered from the original score, but I don't think it detracted from the show at all. The stage lighting was fantastic, the theatrics were fantastic, and the use of screens was dazzling. I thought Deborah Cox was a phenomenal Lucy. Now this is a very hard position to fill for me, as Linda Eder (the original Lucy) is one of my all time favorite voices. But I thought Deborah Cox, killed it! She was stunning. As for Jekyll/Hyde, I adored Constantine Maroulis in this role. I was definitely a doubter at first. But he sold me. He brought a totally different type of voice to the role. Much more rock but still full of passion and meaning for the characters. BRAVO indeed from this Tulsa girl. (disclaimer: if you didn't like it, "that's like, your opinion, man") :)
