| It's really idiotic, isn't it? I emerged at the interval from my orchestra seat and began scanning the lobby for a sign for the bathrooms and could see nothing. Finally I asked one of the humourless, vaguely surly security guys standing around the lobby and he listlessly pointed towards a staircase going up to the mezzanine level. I asked if there was any WC where I didn't have to walk up a staircase and he just shook his head "no". So I went back into the theatre and asked an usher and she pointed to a rather small sign indicating bathrooms downstairs. By that point I opted to wait until the show was over but I did say to her that I thought the signage was lacking. She was very pleasant and polite and said she'd bring it up to management. Not much else she could do :). And yes, the show is wanting. Not boring but rather haphazard. I thought Katie Brayben was terrific and I can't imagine what it would have been like without that performance at the centre. It was hard not to keep imagining Andrew Rannells as Jim Bakker. Christian Borle didn't seem to be having a very good time and I thought about how effortlessly positive an actor Rannells is and how that puts me at ease. His sunny disposition and clean-cut looks are just perfect for a televangelist (and it's easy to think Elder Price could have made a great televangelist). Was anyone else struck by Pope John Paul II's apparent German accent? (That whole Archbishop of Canterbury/John Paul scene seemed so unnecessary.) |
