A perfect way to end such a WONDERFUL show! Boooooo New York theatre critics! I got teary the moment I saw Janet Dacal crying at her bow, cause to me it means this show meant alot to her and to the other cast.
Haha, I love how when Darren was saying " A lot of Land On Your Feet's, a lot of Nick of Times, and a lot of Misunderstood's" he was inferring to songs from when the show premiered back in 2009.
@meangirl714 Wonderland was Ritchie's sixth Broadway show (after Bells Are Ringing, Les Misérables, Dracula, Little Shop of Horrors and Thoroughly Modern Millie.)
I literally started crying when I found out this was gonna close! It was better than Wicked! I loved this show! Thumbs up for a revival! I am also tearing just watching this....not from the propoasl part.
I love that you can see that Kate knows what is about to happen on her face from the moment he first addresses Janet directly. The jaw on the floor look is priceless.
Didn't get a chance to see the show, but the music is much better than any critics seemed to want to say. I was disappointed that somewhere between the 1st preview and opening night they dumped the original opening number, which seemed to be quite good, replacing it with a song that gets reprised later. One would think that after such a long tryout period it would have been frozen by then. The song is on the demo recording.
@GiaBia0592 did you see it the first time it played in tampa or on its second go here because i saw it both times and the first time i fell in love and i dont even like musicals. when they brought it back for the broadway version something was missing and it had lost some of its charm and fun
@ktswing88 At the end of the show she kindof returns to reality, and since Ritchie plays her husband back in the real world that is his costume for that character, and hers too because she never changes from what she wears when she falls down the rabbit hole.
That was a nice way to end the show's run. I wish I had actually seen it before it closed.
I was at the show when Darren Richie proposed to Janet Dacal and I couldnt have asked for a better ending to this show. It was the best show ive ever seen on broadway. If it was still on broadway I would see again and again . I was soo happy I got too see the last show and the proposal !
@actor4ever910 Wow... well, a lot of the times it's the complete opposite... *cough cough* Spiderman *cough cough* lol and there was talk about legal issues though because "Alice" is copyrighted. That's where I got that from. but yeah I know- I guess it just wasn't the year for Wonderland. I wanted to see it soooo bad but I never got the chance. :\
@ceesayssorry The Disney movie might be copyrighted, but the books that the musical is *actually* inspired by/based on has been long out of copyright, so that's not really an issue. Unfortunately it just wasn't making as much money as they needed it to to keep it open.
@AquadianEffect yeah! I heard that they were going to do that! omg I'm so excited. I think I'll try and check it out next week or something. ahhhh!!!! I'm such a nerd. XD
Thanks so much for posting this! I was there and the emotional energy in the theater was incredible! Hours later, we are still excited that this happened!
@TsWade2 Well, there is talk that Disney is being a real bitch that they basically had nothing to do with this musical or whatever because it's based off of Alice in Wonderland and they had to close because of legal issues. there's also talk that maybe people just like the shows like catch my if you can and the other new ones better. but I don't think that it's been open long enough for that assumption to be made. I think it's legal issues. :\
i saw this show yesterday and really liked it, although janet wasnt there. i have to say, this proposal is just the cutest thing in the world :) best wishes to veryone involved. btw i love how around 3:47 it looks like kate shindle either knows or just realizes whats about to happen!
I love how EVERYONE just whipped out their cameras from random areas of their costumes. :)
