Banal, Confusing

See it if You like nonsensical plots, forgettable music. The two lead female performances were strong.

Don't see it if Up there with one of the worst musicals I've seen. It either made no sense, was filled with plot holes or did a total disservice to Wilde

Confusing, Great Singing, Indulgent, Lacklustre, Repetitive

See it if You appreciate great vocals that manage to make repetitive and unengaging songs bearable.

Don't see it if You appreciate good theatre. If you want a storyline easy to understand with good acting. If you expect a decent musical score.
