We saw The Woman in White last night, Andrew Lloyd Webber’s latest Broadway show, which previously opened in London. I liked it more than I’d expected to (though to be honest, my expectations were not very high). The lead actress is recovering from cancer treatment, but I thought the understudy was great. The coolest thing about the show were the sets – they’re all computer-generated animated projections. As Matt put it, it was like playing a giant game of Myst.
Like most Andrew Lloyd Webber musicals, this one basically has three motifs that are repeated over and over until you can’t get the damn things out of your head.
Damn you, Andrew Lloyd Webber, and your catchy earworms.
