I saw it in London and it was a bit different. The closing song was called "Pie in the Sky" which, for me at least, was a stronger song. I do like the message of this one though.
This was during previews. George didn't walk in during the song after we opened...his character was dead. But I agree the whole thing should have lived longer.
I love this!! I was supposed to see it for my birthday a few years back, and then it got cancelled out here (NY) a month before....Can anyone PLEASE give me info on where I can find the DVD? I can't find it anywhere.
i went to see this twice at The Lowry in Manchester, it was amazing i was only stopped going to see the third time because of funds, i cant believe it did not become a big hit !
It's sad because they had a large fan base and were filling seats nightly. To bad there was too much media bullshit; without it it could have survived longer.
ohh geez..what a question. 'who is that'?? wow. lol sorry. he would be the one who basically created this whole play. just incase you didnt know already.
I like this song a lot, against my more cultured instincts. It's actually really powerful in its simplicity - and the message is always powerful. I love raul esparza, but hate his speaking voice in this.
i love pie in the sky!! they didnt get rid of it in the dvd version tho, its just not the ending...there are tons of ending songs!! haha but they are all AMAZING....love it!!
Such a beautiful song. So amazing. It's message is powerful, even though it's simple. And I think young people need to understand what this song is saying. I think it is so important.
I would have to agree.. I saw the London version and loved it.. wasn't a real fan of the US version. It just seem too "cleaned up." Too bad it didn't last longer though.
I have only seen clips of the London cast on youTube, but I did see the Broadway cast. I think the Broadway cast suffered from trying to be too big and main stream. The London production was small and had no expectations to live up to. Both shows have moments of absolute perfection.

The thing with critics is, and why the bash amazing peices of groundbreaking stuff, is because there afraid of it.
Also allot of theater reviewers are from the Royal Shakepear Society, and thats why they get the jobs, because they think they are best.
Its crazy...

@TistaTaker "americans don't know a good thing if it bit them in the arse"
Well, that and the play is a snapshot of a tiny British subculture from 30 years ago that most Brits aren't even aware existed.
But sure, the "don't know a good thing" bit works too.
