LOVED IT!
I absolutely LOVED this show! The music was fabulous (even better than the movie!) and the story was both touching and unexpected. Wonderful Irish accents--playful humor--and a great portrayal of love and sacrifice-- What's not to love?!

HANSARD ROCKS
Loved the show. Loved the voices. And just love Glen Hansards music-why was I not there last night to see him in action???

NEED A STRONGER LEAD
Fabulous cast and production with the exception of the actor playing Guy, who doesn't project either his voice or his emotions. He has a nice voice, but he doesn't draw you in. Having seen the movie and other live productions of Once, this was enjoyable...but not the best.

A GREAT DISAPPOINTMENT, WE LEFT AT INTERMISSION.
We saw this tonight in Denver. I had high expectations given that it won so many awards and had rave reviews on Broadway. What a disappointment. We go to the theatre often and this was the very first play where we left at intermission. This is not to say that the lead actor and actress were not talented. They had wonderful singing voices but they too often mumbled their lines to the point where I heard people whispering what did they say. I know the play had a subtle story line but it totally lacked excitement and could not hold our interest. It was so slow with awkward poises that the man seated behind me fell asleep and started to snore loudly. At intermission my wife and I turned to each other and said, it's time to leave. While I waited for my wife at the front door I talked with an employee of the theatre who was watching the door during the intermission. I told her we were disappointed and were leaving. She said quite a few people were leaving. Wish it weren't so.

AWFUL
Once was pretty poor. Lead singer shrill, songs not very good, WAY overlong. I was praying for it to end. The second act was like watching paint dry. Many thought it was great: not me.
Seen Once? Loved it? Hated it?
