I held that most people do not like jukebox musicals, and the split in who likes jukebox musicals and who does not like juxebox musicals seems to be straight down in the middle of people who enjoy theaters for fun versus people who do theater and study theater, and understand the basics of the theater. My first takeaway from this article is it describes the summary in the plot as it being just like any other musical or story about a person from the wrong side of the tracks which gives me the feeling that well then what makes this story special as I have never seen the movie or heard about the story I don't know what this is about so I'm interested to learn more and hear what special about this one that separates it from any other story about a girl from the wrong side of the tracks. I am honestly not sure if I would like this musical purely based on the fact that it's gonna be country music, and I don't really know any or like any country music songs.
