Call Me Madam is going to be good, but I wish I liked the show more. I remain apathetic about the score as well; it's no Annie Get Your Gun!
I do like most of Merman's numbers, as well as "It's A Lovely Day Today" and "You're Just in love," but I really dislike the two ballads and I detest "The Ocarina." The young man playing Kenneth, the secretary, is totally endearing. His ballad "Once Upon A Time Today" is really lovely, and it's a song that never registered with me before. I saw the Encores! production 25 years ago with Tyne Daly, and the Goodspeed production around 2000, and I sat through today's rehearsal, thinking I remember nothing about this show!
