get the soundtrack it's quite good. It's opening night of the entire show on cd (some songs recorded in the studio, because of audience noise) and you can picture it being an amazing show unlike the weird digital set extranvaganza it turned out to be.

I think the biggest problem, strictly from listening to the recording, is that it's basically the same five songs repeated over and over again to different lyrics with a new one inserted sparingly here and there with a tiny bit of dialouge...in other words...it's too repetative...which is so Webber.

yeah, but I actually love these melodies! Phantom it was annoying. Superstar I was happy that a melody was repeated at least twice cause then it reminds you how awsome that melody was.

I have mixed feelings about The Woman In White. I have the OLCR, and the singing is excellent. Angela Christian is especially powerful as Anne Catherick, and the show has some really beautiful themes, however no particularly memorable songs. It's long, it's dragged out, it feels like an attempt to recreate Phantom (unsuccessfully), and some of the songs are just plain bad. For example, "Lammastide" (besides being a completely irrelevant piece of music) sounds like a note-for-note ripoff of The Macarena, and I'm not even exaggerating. The lyrics are also pretty weak. In one song, the character Count Fosco actually rhymes "house guest" with "mouse guest." Truly cringe-worthy. Nevertheless, there are some beautiful melodies, a great gothic atmosphere, and it makes for good background music because the story is ridiculously easy to follow (thanks to a complete absence of subtext). Plus, the performances are phenomenal in the OLCR. So I give it sort of a half-assed recommendation.
