Let's talk about Frank Wildhorn. I mean, the guy has three shows on Broadway and it just seems to me theater fans and the theater community just won't give the guy a break. He deserves everything he's gotten for those shows. Yes, I do. The only competition is Parade , a badly executed experiment in meaningful musical theatre which happens to have had a decent score.
Civil War is successful in what it set out to do on all counts.
It's much the better show. The way people are talking now, after the fact, is like Parade was the greatest thing since chopped liver. I imagine it's because the CD is being received so well. So, we'll give you that. It's got potential on the road.
