A musical comedy? What we have is funny skits alternating with songs. We saw this a week ago. The skits were funny, sometimes hilarious. The words weren't always intelligible, but much of the comedy was physical: actions, poses, tone of voice, sudden stoppage of words, so you didn't actually have to hear what they were saying. The songs were, well, songs. They did nothing for me, but I'm funny that way. Some people are really into singing. Me, I prefer popular music, not this highfalutin' stuff.
The story is about a 35 year old single woman and the prospect of marriage, or not. The rest of the cast is five married couples, so we take a look at those marriages and none of them are perfect, they all have their own quirks. Kind of like real life.
