    I had a problem with that Fantasia woman. She really didn't belong on the show but I guess Oprah Winfrey gets her way. All I can say is that style of singing has no place on Broadway, in my opinion, and it sorta kinda is the perfect embodiment of what's gone wrong with pop music in general. Yuck!
Yeah i had a problem with that too. The color purple- while a good show, was last season. I'll i can think of was it was to get higher ratings

Darn it, I got home late and missed the opening section, sounds like it was pretty great.
Bernadette looked impossibly great. I never before realized how much Harvey sounds like Tom Waits. Or Howlin' Wolf. Either one.
I am not a fan of the over-singing style employed by Fantasia either. Otherwise a very good show. Ebersole was wonderful.

The only thing that really bothered me about Fantasia's performance was that she wasn't in character...I mean, she didn't have a costume or wig on or anything. I could be wrong. Thus it looked like a pop performance rather than a character performance.
