Ambitious, Confusing, Disappointing, Indulgent, Great singing

See it if you want to support new works in development; you want to see a poor man's mash-up of Evita-Anastasia-Les Miz-Aida.

Don't see it if you expect to see Donna McKechnie sing & dance. (She doesn't sing until the final number - sans choreography!)

Don't see it if If you don't want every fiber of your being to hate you for wasting time on this amateurish, confused nonsense.

Clever, Original, Great acting, Great singing

See it if you are looking for a totally original story- not inspired by pre-existing material. Strong cast with fun music. Donna McKechnie is a gem!

Don't see it if you are turned off by "princess" stories.

Absorbing, Romantic, Entertaining

See it if a love story that crosses the years and makes you she'd a tear or two is something you like.

Don't see it if You are easily disappointed when you figure out the 'twist' in the first 15 minutes.
