I have loved this show for the entire time it's been on Broadway. I have seen it twice, once in jacksonville, once in New York City. I saw the same cast that was filmed minus Tracie Thoms and the girl who played Mimi in New York, and they were just as fabulous on screen as they were on stage. I cried and was so pleased to see a picture of Jonathan Larson at the very end. While this was amazing, seeing it live and in person on the stage is 100 times better.
