Also I'm very sorry to admit this but for me the choreography in Act 1 just doesn't work at all. The only dance number that works for me is Took the Words - it has a clear storyline.
This Capoeira-style doesn't work for me, the meaning isn't clear in most of the pieces and in Act 1, it's distracting from the amazing vocal performances.
The solo before Just Won't Quite needs to go - it looks like bad break dance.
*I'm getting critical - I love it so much - these are just my opinions. Fully aware that I didn't get the directing gig this time LOL. As Jay said to me. The show is BANANAS*
I think that the set up in Act 1 could do with a bit more clarity.

I went with two people who were musical regulars, they liked Meat Loaf music but weren't real fans. They enjoyed the musical but I asked how does it compare to Lion King, Wicked etc. They smiled and both said the show isn't as good as the top musicals.
This is the problem the show has...it can't just rely on Meat Loaf fans because in all honesty there isn't that many of us!
