#like. besides WSS there's Kiss Me Kate. and & Juliet. and The Lion King. and that original Finnish Hamlet musical that was even shown on TV

I just saw a quote pulled from the local newspaper's review of the new Finnish-Swedish production of Something Rotten!

It said combining musicals and Shakespeare doesn't make any sense, but maybe that's exactly why Something Rotten! works so well.

Not to sound too cranky and done with everything or anything, but EVER HEARD OF A LITTLE MUSICAL CALLED WEST SIDE STORY??? I mean? Seriously??

At this point, I think I would feel happier if Finnish media just stopped publishing musical reviews altogether, seeing how time and time again, they appear to be written by people who've never seen a musical before.
