Title: Love. For Sale.
Review: Really? This is why I shun nearly all musicals anymore. Sing what needs to be sung; speak what needs to be said. And this might have been more enjoyable... just maybe - if that had been the case. The songs were just awful to begin with. The forced rhymes and lyrical stupidity. The checklist of one of each type of expected broadway song. The bad bad acting. Idina Menzel baffles me. She is truly frightening to look at, like a shark in leather pants, and her voice's nearest approximation would be a cat strangling itself. The whole story is as thin as onion skin and not one of the actor's invests any energy into their character - the exception would be Angel. And not one of them made me care one iota. Bleh.
