PRphan72 Posted February 14, 2018 Share Posted February 14, 2018 FAVORITES: 2010 - Houdini (these top 2 are very close for me, but 2010 was more intense & performed better) 2009 - The Factory (but this show was much more emotional and really pulls you in) (big gap) 2008 - Le Tour 2016 - Le Reve 2012 - The Blue World LEAST FAVORITE: 2017 - Star Crossed (incredibly uneven, started off great with R&J, the Gatsby section was ok but nothing special, but the Moulin Rouge section was an abomination - I've never seen a show start so strongly and then just go downhill the entire time to an absolutely horrifying mess of an ending) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, I had a hard time with the Gatsby section, as I would have liked to hear some early 20th century jazz in that section of the show.
