This is a show that does not get great marks for the book, but I thought the book said alot about the state of mind of Cole Porter at the time he wrote this show.....it is all about taking risks and second chances. That aside, the performances, the ensemble dancing, and the direction were excellent.
The audience had a great time and so did we.
Our seats were in row BB of the Mezz and they were just great...with great leg room.
