This is one of the best productions of this well known story that I have seen. The music is original and wonderful. The acting? Well -- it is a musical, so that acting is stylized, but the performances are much better than I expected, especially from actors we all have seen elsewhere. Who would have thought that Kelsey Grammar and Jesse Martin could sing so well? (Please don't tell me they were dubbed by Marnie Nixon !!) The costumes and special effects are well done, and complement the music and dancing.
All in all it was delightful. Perhaps the best thing I have seen on the tube in a while.
