Anyone ever hear of this play? Is it any good?
We were at Little Miss Field Day's last High School Open House. Ran into the head of the theatre department (don't worry, he's fine). He told us that this is the play the HS will be performing in the Spring.
From the Wikipedia description, it sounds like they've reworked the old 1950's movie Forbidden Planet (starring Leslie "and don't call me Shirley" Nielson) into a musical. And both are based on Shakespeare's The Tempest. So the pedigree is sound.
But is it any good?
