It’s really wonderful. As great as the soundtrack is, it doesn’t do justice to seeing the live performance. Almost as good as the show was the excitement of the younger audience members. Just awesome to see teenagers in the 21st century squeee-ing over obscure historical figures like the Schuyler sisters (“Work!”) or Hercules Mulligan.
The good news is that he’s made a high-quality reference video of the original production, which they’ve talked about editing into something that people can watch in movie theatres. Also, the stage show will probably have a long life like “Les Mis”, so eventually you’ll have a chance to see it at a more reasonable price.
