grease is the word...

grease is the word indeed!!
too bad the musical wasn't that great as the movie. one thing really, really, really sad bout this musical was...it was not a full house, sold out performance. now, that is depressing news. i mean, c'mon ppl, its GREASE!! the greatest musical (the movie, i mean) ever. this is like my 1st time ever seeing a musical this empty. the actors on stage seeing this wud definitely be demoralized.
the musical in general wasn't that bad. there were some funny moments and the songs were catchy but....it juz lacked that X-factor! we actually got the 2nd expensive tics, but that was not necessary. we cud have easily gotten the cheapest tics and then move our butts to the most xpensive seats. thats how empty the theather was. the stage was really simple. the car was small. not like the one in the movie. the actor who played sandy was mediocre. i guess tis is wat happens after watchin the movie. u start to compare between the 2. but how can i compare john travolta n olivia newton-john wif a couple of unknowns. that wud not be fair. and it was the musical first. movie second. but thats the way it goes. u have 2 of the same things, u'll definitely compare. i wished west side story came here. i wanted to watch it. my mum got to watch phantom of the opera. i'm defintely waiting to watch that. and also lion king. evita. bombay dreams. and the list goes on. guess i'll have to settle for blockbusters like pirate's of the caribbean and x-men and superman and and and....uh...watever hit movies r coming out tis yr.
