If you like this person's taste, follow him!
See it if you like spending time with spoiled, rich, pretentious, narcissistic people who occasionally say something witty. Beautifully appointed set

See it if You love theater and the current state of it deserves to be dissected. The cast does remarkable and spot on imitations of iconic actors.
Don't see it if you think musicals have no place in the human experience. Even if you're not up on theater, can't imagine anyone not having a good time.
See it if For younger people who might think it's clever. Extravagant production. Many excellent actors who knock the numbers out of the park.
Don't see it if Doesn't make much sense, kind of boring and shrill but 2nd half picks up. Like "Be More Chill" but totally lacking heart.

Don't see it if You've seen a really great production of it. Can appear rather melodramatic and supporting parts can be cartoonish.
