Pre-theatre Meal: The View Lounge at the Marriott Marquis
This has been one of my families go-to pre-theatre spots because of the fantastic view and the buffet making it easy to control the pace of your meal. However, after 30 minutes no waitress came to take our drink order. Once she did, it was another ridiculously long wait to get our drinks. Then of course, tracking her down to get our check was another chore and we wound up just making it to the theater in time.
Accompanied by: Nana Frank, Aunt Debbie, M. Scott
Started out slowly, but really picked up in the 2nd act. Incredible talent (especially the amazing Norbert Leo Butz), beautiful sets, touching story. They used a lot of projected images for the scenery which I absolutely would hate for any other production, but I thought were absolutely perfect for this musical. To me it represented the layer of fiction Edward projects on top of reality to make everything just a little bit more magical and beautiful than it really is. Overall we enjoyed it, but it was lacking wow factor.
