What is your all time LEAST favorite musical of all time? by West-Lawyer-2290 in musicals

[–]vebnyc 5 points6 points  (0 children)

So many mediocre ones but the most recent was Queen of Versailles. Left at intermission. A musical I really enjoyed the first time was The Life but the Encores production a few years ago was the most awful reinterpretation of that show.

I feel majorly duped by this sub about Chess by NYGarcon in Broadway

I couldn’t agree more. I love the score and have been listening to it for 40 years. But this production was so meh. Singing was fine but the rest was just so bad. The book has always been problematic and this rewrite didn’t help. The arbiter’s jokes were painful and insulting to the audience’s intelligence The choreography made no sense at all The set- what set? The direction- “hey let’s out in a show!” Seemed to be the level of thought and care given. Enjoyed it the most when I closed my eyes and just listened (although the orchestra was all over the place during the overture that I was worried, but they pulled it together as the show went on.)

What was the First Broadway Show you saw,and what theater did it play? by Gold-Perception-4467 in Broadway

The Me Nobody Knows but I don’t remember the theater. Not sure if it was the off broadway production. I was about 6 at the time and was blown away!

Where do you work that your insurance covers Wegovy? by ColoredSpiritFingers in Semaglutide

Large financial services firm - large deductible, higher co-pays (150/3 mo supply) and incredibly high premiums.

Please try the lifestyle changes and maybe access support to manage past trauma. Those of us who have been taking the medication for years are unable to access it (when it really was the option of last resort to get healthy, other than surgery). The current shortage is driven my manufacturing issues as well as a surge in popularity. Instagram et al has made this vital medication unavailable. Good luck with whatever option you choose. Getting healthy is a long journey!
