Titanic: The Musical.The knives were out, and jokes about a singing version of the century’s most famous maritime catastrophe — “Don’t give away the ending,” “The story left me cold,” and ”Are there enough lifeboats for the audience?” — pretty much wrote themselves. Although few reviewers gave the show an out-and-out pan, critical reception to Titanic: The Musical was largely lukewarm. New York Times chief critic Ben Brantley wrote that the musical “never seems to leave port.” Enter Rosie O’Donnell.
