I agree with McNulty's views here, but I don't share his worry that audiences will be overexposed to Sondheim. The one thing I disagree with is Bonnie Langford's performance of "I'm Still Here" which I thought has hamhanded. And he doesn't mention what was just about my favorite moment, which was the Quintet from WEST SIDE STORY. I've already got my ticket for a second viewing and may see a third before the show leaves. (I saw the FOLLIES revival out here four times, it was just too good not to burn it into my brain forever.)
