Ok, I am prejudiced, I know, but I went tonight and was pleased with the show. Things have been changed a bit and I liked the changes. The cast is talented and works well together. I thought there was improvement on many levels and I hope that the negative reviews will not keep people from seeing this show as it is fun and funny. I had a great time!

Wish more people who liked the show would post positive reviews on Broadway Box or NY Times.com.

I noticed all the Sandys and Dannys from the NBC show were there. How was Ashley there if she's in Hairspray?

Not sure of Hairspray's schedule, but I don't think they have a show Sunday night.

Hairspray plays at 3pm on Sundays so she probably headed over to the BAT after her show.

Did they change the Finale to include more singing and dancing?

The final scene is choreograhed differently and a lot better. Theie was a lot more playfullnes and interaction between Danny and Sandy. Then they added this fantastic finale where they sang and danced to pieces of a lot of the Grease songs. It reminded me of the finale at the end of a fireworks show.

Glad they did it. It was the same in the 1994 revival. Teen Angel in that one sang "Born To Hand Jive" and Rizzo and Kenicke dueted on "Grease Lightning".
