areaxbiologist's review against another edition
4.0
A meta-musical to die for. Unapologetic and even more relevant now that there's the Occupy movements. It's a smooth read and the humor is left up to actors (best decision). I still chuckle every time I think of Lockstock and Barrel. My vote goes to Little Sally for best character.
The love story is as paper-thin as all musical love stories - what sets it apart (as the authors state in their intros) is the lyrics. Nothing like a little Heart Anatomy 101 to break apart trite & gooey sentiments. I wish I'd had an opportunity to see a complete production live.
