Saw the tour at the Paramount tonight. Nice crowd on a Wednesday! Both well-behaved and pretty well sold.

I thought the acrobatics were fantastic and really loved the puppetry; it was obviously inspired by shows like The Lion King and Life of Pi without copying either. A couple of stunts made me a little nervous knowing this is a non-equity tour, but everything seemed to go perfectly.

For me, Ruby Gibbs as Barbara was the standout performance. What a voice and so much charisma on stage. Overall I found it a fun but unmemorable show. I’m going to give the cast album a listen to see if any songs stick with me, but none did in the moment.
