Yeh, everything was 10/10 until they danced, and then it turned into a 4/10...but hey that's just me. And the diction was slop city. But Christina O'Neill as Florence was superb, apart from her forced mannerisms like constantly tugging at her jacket. That didn't work. But I still feel she needs to replace Rachel Beck and be the lead in everything.

And the orchestra were distracting, but that is a fault of the architecture.

...and Svetlana's wig was unfortunate.

end.
