I went to see this on Oct 1st and it was absolutely freaking hysterical. I can think of at least 100 people I know who need to see this show. Mac heads, nerds, geeks, techie mavens...all need to see it. I hope the producers decide to show it in other venues. Brilliant show!

hahahahahaha! I was wondering who would figure out a way to make musicals even more annoying. I am kidding a little..... at least it is a way to possibly bring in a new audience to the theater. I can't wait to hear some reviews even if I am not at all likely to go.

I'll see it if it ever makes it to San Franciso. Looks like a hoot!
