NBC's next live musical... May 11
2017, 12:27:15 PM
g.d.e.l.g.i. said: "As the resident JCS fan who runs one of the biggest sites devoted to the show (still currently in development in its new form, but check it out!), all I ask is this:
Cast. Actual. Rockers.
I don't mean pop musicians.
I don't mean flavors of the month.
No Glenn Carters, no Ben Forsters, no Steve Balsamos, no light pretty airy theater-pop voices.
I mean ROCKERS.
Listen to that brown album. Listen to the movie. Cast people who sound like that. Earthy. Rock, folk, soul voices. People who will hit high notes that convince you they're gonna have a brain hemorrhage through their nose, who can sing the score as it has been performed to much success, not people that one would have to adjust keys or play with the arrangement to make "happen."
ROCKERS.
R-O-C-K-E-R-S.
(Oh, and for an actual named suggestion, Stephen Colbert as Herod. Dude is popular on the late-night circuit, he's irreverent to say the least, he's controversial, and he has expressed a love for the song and the role in an NPR interview. He's a good fit for something more dry and witty instead of just making Herod the "gay / music hall comic relief" figure as has been done in the past.)
Guuuuuurrrrrrrl, CHILL. OUT.
We gotcha the first time. You want them to cast rockers. You don't have to capitalize the damn word and you sure as hell don't have to spell it out.
So damn extra, yo.

MichelleCraig said: "Well, it's probably sacrilege on this board...but my go-to Birdie is the film soundtrack with Ann-Margret (yes, surprisingly, that's how you spell her name).
Yes hunny, that is because she is Swedish. Ann-Margret is her first name, hence the hyphenation. Olsson is her maiden name. Smith her married last name.
And that's my go-to "Birdie" recording as well....I lurv the re-worked "Gotta Lotta Livin' T

Help get Carrie '88 into the National Recording Registry! Apr 4
2017, 02:42:11 PM
I luuuurrrrv me some Carrie. It's the most bi-polar musical ever in the history of Broadway musicals.
It's Fame/Flashdance by way of Stephen King, A high school/rock-horror opera of epic proportions!
What's not to love?!!?

SweetLips said: "From what I read this Dolly seems to be turning into one big audience circus--how do the performers compete?
The more people read about the SOs, cheering, whooping etc etc it's ingrained before the show starts that this a vocal free for all and the louder they scream the more attention the audience member will receive-'Bette will always remember the night that I was there' sort of thing.
Makes me NOT want to be there as this cranky o
