About

You’ll likely enjoy this if you want a classic, larger-than-life musical packed with showy songs, bright costumes, and farcical matchmaking, in the spirit of The King and I; Not for you if you dislike long runtimes or old-fashioned humor.

Pros: big, tuneful musical numbers; lively lead performance; lavish period look | Cons: very long runtime; uneven comedy; romance chemistry varies
