About
You’ll likely enjoy this if you like character-driven musicals that mix fantasy and reality and don’t mind a looser storyline, somewhat in the vein of Rock of Ages; Not for you if you need a clear, fast-moving plot.
Pros: strong cast performances; bold musical setpieces; seductive, atmospheric mood | Cons: loose, drifting story; uneven pacing early; songs may not click
