The Last Starfighter: the MusicalI've seen some out there shit in musical theater before, but I can't imagine how this will play out. Apparently its been in off broadway workshops since 2004. with songs like "Somebody, Somewhere, Something," "Out of This World" and "Zandozan!," how can it go wrong

in a word? Broadway.

The only art where the Jewish can puppeteer using purse strings. you should she the shit that DOESN'T make it, like Dollypop, Lestat: the Musical, and Annie 2: Miss Hannigan's Revenge.

Annie...2?

If you have any love for me you will never tell me about that play.

"The first attempt at a sequel, Annie 2: Miss Hannigan's Revenge, opened at the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts in Washington, D.C. in December 1989 to universally disastrous reviews. Extensive reworking of the script and score proved futile, and the project was aborted before reaching Broadway. In 1993, a second attempt (with a completely different plot and score), entitled Annie Warbucks, opened at the off-Broadway Variety Arts Theatre, where it ran for 200 performances."

I dont think there was much promise in this show, I mean, whats the act 1 finale? "the sun came out sometime this morning?" it lacks effect.

And while a girl living in a mansion with every amenity singing a revised version of "a hard knock life" is incredibly relevant to modern teens, some felt it was less than appropriate for a fun filled evening.

And in case you were wondering, it isnt that I aint got love for you, I just thought you would like to know EXACTLY how much the show sucked.
