In The Heights is a good example, that looked fantabulous. But I mean, in the end, it's hard for me to really comment on any of this new-direction-of-musical-theater stuff -- I am mostly looking through the lens of Tony Performances, plus sometimes reviews I've read and, occasionally, youtube stuff -- I mean, it isn't like Denver's a really happening theater town by anyone's definition. I DON'T KNOW. Someday, this Next to Normal/Spring Awakening style stuff (which I mostly do not have an issue with!) is going to be the norm for new musicals, and someone will want to subvert it by going back to the trumpets. I HOPE. MAYBE.
Mamma Mia! was the wooooorst, I just wanted it to END. And don't worry, you don't sound defensive at all!
