The musical is gorgeous, almot sold-out every night, and it'll be a massive hit once it moves to Broadway in 2022. Oh and I can't wait for all the "Britney's musical is smashing it" threads next year  

 

I'm pretty embarrased of this forum sometimes 

Those costumes look so cheap, like carnival at a kindergarten

Here’s a review of the current show…

https://dcmetrotheaterarts.com/2021/12/19/once-upon-a-one-more-time-is-wacky-but-it-works/

I rarely post but I felt the need to chime in… Sorry to say, but a lot of you just happen to fill many certain stereotypes…

First off, this is just a curtain call, where performers take their bows. It is highly choreographed for a a curtain call, which is usually just people walking out and taking their bows. Here is a snippet I found of a review from someone who actually saw the show…

“I will also say that I LOVED the curtain call. I haven't seen a show with a highly choreographed curtain call in AGES so I had a ton of fun watching the bows. I didn't even realize that I missed choreographed curtain calls until I saw this.”

Next, this is called an OOTT (Out of town tryout). It’s where you perform the show in front of an audience for the first time and see what works. You see what jokes land, what songs work, etc.  Also, it has an out of town tryout budget. So if and when it transfers to the great white way (Broadway), the show will be revised based on audience reaction/feedback and the budget could be increased to allow for more intricate set/costumes.

Lastly, stop being so damn judgmental. We live in a world so full of hate, and you guys just perpetuate this notion.  Also, educate yourself on a topic before you needlessly chime in and knock everything. 

The show is selling very well and has great word of mouth… “Artistic director Simon Godwin (Shakespeare Theatre Company) says "Once Upon a One More Time is on track to become the top-selling show in the company’s 35-year history."

Am I saying it’s the greatest piece of theater every contrived for the stage?…No, I am not. Will it last many years on broadway if it even makes the transfer?…who knows. All I’m saying is educate yourself, do a little research, and get off your high horses. Not everything needs your sassy sarcastic input on a topic you know nothing about.

P.S. I have in no way shape or form, any ties or stakes to the show. I don’t perform or have money invested in the show. Just a fan of theater.

They can be done well if correctly adapt. I mean Moulin Rouge is outrageous but it works, The Cher Show was incredible.

 

This is a bad show fullstop.

I won't waste my time trying to explain what the purpose of a tryout is. Check what the Cher show looked like in the tryouts...

You can't compare to Moulin Rouge production which has millions invested based on a famous movie. In fact they're losing a lot of money and the production is expected to close in 2022 and go on tour

"Once upon a one more time" has great reviews so far, and it will also go under rework to adjust the play before opening on Broadway. That's what a tryout is for...

Frankly, this is irrelevant when it's literally been approved as is by Britney's Conservatorship Team. This isn't an unofficial release, this was signed off by Team Con as it is.

 

It is a mess, and unless the rework the set in its entirety, and costuming, and the score etc.

Yes, it is a tryout, but most shows are edited, not reworked entirely at this stage.

It is not a bad show.  I saw it last Saturday.  It is based off of theories in a book called: Feminine Mystique.

Me too... they'll be watching it soon enough. 

I'm glad you enjoyed it too. Though I guess you are a plant for team con too.

I know this is just the curtain call but damn there is zero Britney essence at all. Even the way they’ve done the orchestrations. Yikes. I’ll pass

[Fabricio Alex]

Musicals can be tacky aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaafffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffff

          

          

[Woof]

This is a curtain call pretty sure the end of the show.

This is literally the end credits...why are y'all judging it?

Agree, even with end credit it does look very appealing
