I know Broadway launches aren't all about Tonys, but -- especially when you have a very lauded group of performers -- it must be weird to premiere a show like two months after the awards, knowing you may be far from voters' minds when that time comes around again. And this IS a strong group: nominees Phillipa Soo, Bryan D'Arcy James, Joshua Henry, Sara Bareilles (albeit for songwriting), and winners Patina Miller and Gavin Creel, all doing Sondheim, which is always buzzy, especially after *Company* showed strongly at this year's Tonys.

So far, the reviews are good. I have to be honest: For someone who loves musical theatre, somehow I have missed ever seeing *Into The Woods*, so my only experience with it is the movie. And I DID NOT like that movie. At all. It was so boring. Was that a bad adaptation -- an "if you didn't like the movie then you probably won't like the show either" situation -- or should I jump on the live show if I ever get the chance? The answer for me is usually, "Jump on the live show anyway because live shows are fun," but between Covid and ticket prices, I feel like I'm going to be pretty selective about what I see for a while. Ugh. Damn you, Covid. It was so much easier to talk myself into the splurge before.
