I’m flying out to Chicago to see this next week and excited to see if it’s really the mess it’s being made out to be.

Was there tonight and enjoyed it a lot more than I thought I would having gone in with relatively low expectations following the reviews and comments on a certain message board. I haven't seen the movie for years but thought this worked well.
I actually liked the score for the most part, but could certainly do with some more standout moments. That said, it was a stronger score than some other recent stage to screen adaptations (Doubtfire, Pretty Woman, Back to the Future).
Cast were fantastic, especially Taylor Iman Jones. Beth Leavel is extremely underused. Loved Javier Munoz.
I think with a bit of work it will be ready for Broadway. Hopefully they will use the time to make some changes and bring it in the spring. I can also see this being the sort of show that London would lap up (a la Pretty Woman), only a matter of time.

Elton on the R2 breakfast show this morning admitting that Prada is ‘not ready’ and will probably need another year before opening anywhere else.
