Pittsburgh City Paper - Pittsburgh: "It sounds like such a good idea: Two guys, Jed and Boyd, want to produce a musical. Their production will last 13 hours and involve 318 actors, singers and dancers. The cast will share 6,428 costumes. The musical will cost $83 million, but such a Wagnerian spectacle will be worth every penny. Won't we, the audience, make a generous donation?"
