    People are Talking: UMS presents John Malkovich in The Infernal Comedy at Hill Auditorium [plus AUDIO]:

  • We, too, had a negative reaction due to the fact that we were seated in the middle of the Mezzanine. I feel the UMS abused our trust and faith in not informing us of the production’s lack of visibility. We thought we were paying for premium seats.

    The performance didn’t “hang” together as a whole, even though individual performances were great.

    Not a good show. Somewhat offensive, more so just not all that thought out. The music was good, but none of the emotion of a fairly intense premise was there. It felt incomplete, less than witty and like a wasted opportunity.

    Maybe my negative reaction to the show is in part due to the fact that we couldn’t see a thing in the Mezzanine. It got so bad that a older man stood up in protest before being removed by an usher. Halfway through the performance I gave up stretching my neck trying to see. I bought two tickets with UMS Arts and Eats blindly not knowing my seating location, and am honestly am pretty upset about how this trust was abused. I’ve never wanted money back for a show until last night.

    Kind of a bad night guys. Don’t think I’ll be recommending this to anyone.
