Sydney was in 1990, 2 years after Broadway and was a mix of London, Broadway and some new elements. It's such a confusing mess to watch, especially if you're only familiar with later versions.
Well i liked this more than when I saw it at Regents Park and Zegler has a lot to do with that. She definitely has stage presence and can sing pretty much most of the score, though i do hope she finds ways to bring some more dynamics into the score as she gets some more performances under her belt.
Wasn't a fan of the actress who played the Mistress, her voice grated. Is she also the Evita alternate? I enjoyed the choreo and there are some nice flourishes here and there - liked the
Tim Rice talks about the Broadway revival in this podcast from a month ago, saying that they have a great cast lined up for it. He also says that Maybe Happy Ending is the best show he has seen in ages.
Charley Kringas Inc said: "lmao “the audience was wrong!” Or maybe it was just a stale, shallow satire that had nothing new to say about a subject Americans have been drowning in for decades? The whole showwas a warmed-over rehash of Dana Carvey’s Church Lady, a character that debuted nearly forty years ago. It seems like the British creative team wereunable to understand just how much this material saturated our media landscape, and I find that to be kind of fascin
I went to NYC specifically to see Deborah Cox in Aida - the Tony Moran remix of Easy as Life is still one of my favourite dance tracks of all time.
She was great in the role and really sang the score well, but that book...the show comes to a grinding halt between songs. Granted, Cox may not be the world's best actress, but i find it hard to believe anyone could make them really fly off the page.
There were numerous attempts to get Aida into London over the years, but it
Tammy Faye. I loved it in London, and it slightly lost it's way across the pond. It all became too big, too Broadway. I still enjoyed it alot though and glad i got to see it again. I don't really get the complaints about the tone being all over the place.Brits have a diffrent sense of humour too, which i think the book catered to. I strongly believ that the failure came from the producers not having any kind of marketing plans. Why were they not selling the story, raising the shows pr
I don't recall there being that much screaming in at all.
I thought the stagecraft was excellent and as someoone who hasn't followed the Netflix series that closely, really enjoyd the story. Sure, you'll get more out of it with familiarity, but still enjoyable.

Bob Fosse's 1972 film adaptation of CABARET, just like the film adaptation of WICKED did with Gregory Maguire's original novel and Broadway production, used both the original source books by Christopher Isherwood and t
You mean they haven't included one of my favourite songs from the first season of Smash 'A Thousand and One Nights' ? That isnt surprising.
It was THE most random of songs in the whole series, as it had absolutely nothing to do with the show, but just an excuse to give Raza Jaffrey something to sing. It wasn't even included on the album. SHAME!
Granted, high energy and humorous are not her default settings, but she can definitely do it. She was a great Delores Van Cartier in Sister Act in the UK tour and she is nothing if not sincere.
One thing is for certain, it won't be De Bose level of cringe.
I stayed at the Civillian, back in November. Yes, the rooms are very small, but it had everything i needed. It had a nice spacious bathroom & great shower, a wondrful view from the 22nd floor and the bed and pillows were some of the comfiest I have ever had in a hotel. Honestly, the bed and pillows will get me to stay there again on my next trip.
I booked pretty early and got a grat price, but it got really expensive nearer the date and it wasn't worth paying that much for.

Hi! So I actually saw the show and I hated it very much, hope this clears things up!"
You hated it before you saw it. Don't know why you even bothered.going,
I have a spare ticket for tonight - Thursday 14th Nov. It's front Mezz. I'm giving it away for free. If anyone hasn't seen it, or maybe can't afford Broadway prices, here's your chance. Send me a msg and I'll get back to you. Cheers.
