Similar but it follows the Broadway version more. More songs!!

Never doubted Dove. Hating Link majorly. Pretty happy with everyone else although I feel like the energy is lacking somewhat. @OswaldtheRabbit and I have been discussing since it started lol

 

[OswaldtheRabbit]

I dont discredit Garrets ability as an actor, however I do not think he made a good Link. I never liked the idea of him playing it, as it felt like they were trying to get a repeat of Zac Efron. The rest of the cast was pretty spot on though!

@MoitaRose @OswaldtheRabbit Definitely agree on that one. My roommates and I were discussing it while we were watching and we were like "Give us Zac back he was better." I LOVE JHud, but... and this is a super controversial but.... I LOVED Queen Latifah in that role. She had more attitude to it.

THIS. I don't understand. I mean I know it was outside and there were many sets, but I mean during mic checks they should've made sure every mic worked on every sound stage/location.

This is, however, one of the WONDERFUL things about live theater and television. You can do everything right in every rehearsal, only for it to go wrong during the actual show. Anything "live" is just Murphys law, anything that can go wrong, will go wrong!

lol it's literally just reminding me of when my college did Heathers. 5/12 of the mics went out before intermission. Someone put old batteries in there. And we were just like WELP we'll just yell the songs.
