I didn't love it.
The orchestra and musical talent were absolutely amazing. There is definitely a shining star in Brittney Bertier (Norma Jeane), Ruby Lewis (Marilyn Monroe), and my personal favorite Frank Lawson (Charlie). My hat off to all performers for an incredible performance.
The show in itself as a story line - not so great. There were two numbers that felt quite out of place including Charlie's "I Just Wanna Drive" and Ella's jazz number. Although both were great to witness, due to the talent in both individuals, it was hard to see the importance of how it related to Marilyn's life on a greater level.
Lighting seemed to be a difficulty as well. It was very minimal compared to other Vegas shows - even at the Paris. There were also a few times where the lighting was out of place and not shining on the performer. The stage performance operations were a little lackluster, in my opinion.
Did I learn a lot about Marilyn's perceived life? I sure did. And I have a newfound appreciation for the icon that she is and the difficulties that she faced as an individual. However, I feel that the show could have done more in providing the emotion behind the story.
On a side note: the seating in the theater was pretty uncomfortable and made it hard to sit still for a long period of time.
At the end of the day, I am glad I had the opportunity to experience the musical while I could; but I would say that I would have to pass on the chance to see it again.
