Thanks for your reply! Unfortunately it has nothing to do with reality. Please try again. My initial posts and reactions are always on-topic (unlike yours). Then someone lets a trail of dirt run out of his pants and calls me certain names, but they're the strangest. Often followed by words that constantly haunt that person's mind, such as Trump, maga, orange. And sometim

According to a September 2025 report from the Center for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS), the U.S. domestic terrorism landscape has seen a "striking reversal" in 2025. Left-wing terrorist attacks and plots have outnumbered those from the far right. Decreased Right-Wing Activity. Rising Left-Wing Activity. <

Does she have a bit more nuance in her singing in this show than in Evita? There, she was blasting everything at one deafening volume without any finesse whatsoever. Even the first line of "Surprisingly Good for You" was deafening and aggressive. Unfortunately Patti had that too.

Welcome to reality. The rapidly growing numbers since 2025 are not encouraging. The other side is plummeting, according to the Center for Strategic and International Studies.
This is an interesting point. I think I do, especially for example with a show like The Phantom of the Opera, the pacing, the orchestrations, the voice types are so completely different now that it almost seems like a different show. For example, I love 'Music of the Night' in newer versions, with the dynamic building up and the tempo changes, but I really dislike the 1986 cast recording version. I wish they had done a studio recording with John Owen Jones later on, or one every
This is terrible. I wonder when bulletproof glass will be placed in front of the stage in theatres too. Things are really getting out of hand in modern "civilization". Even though I think the lead actress would be quite safe considering her political convictions. I truly wonder how we can turn this climate around and if we will ever get back to a high trust society with class, where people can preach or perform in public without needing extreme safety measures.
Personally, I have my doubts whether America can still be saved. Especially NYC. Let's cherish, love and protect the places in the world that are still safe.
On another note, about the London cast recording, last year 10 tracks were dropped and they said that the rest would be released around November. What happened to those other tracks like "Good night and thank you", etc?

@Moderators, why is this allowed? Constant insults, inciting hatred, personal attacks, lies and never content-related. This user has broken the rules 13 times in a row n
I think it is a consequence of civilization rapidly declining. Norms and values are disappearing. Children learn at home that respect for the society in which they are allowed to live no longer matters. Schools do not intervene but instead participate in this. We are creating a world full of entitled monsters.
Usually I really appreciate Lea Michele's performances, but I don't think this material suits her. I was a bit disappointed. It seems like she doesn't understand the material. Her timing in "Nobody's side" is off. Many of her melody lines are off. It just doesn't click.
It sounds a little bit better than the previously released track of Rainbow High, they added a bit of necessary reverb, but it still isn't the best. They all sound like they were too close to the microphone and some parts are a bit sloppy/off.
But it's nice to hear the songs again and to have this recording. You can find the rest of the tracks when you click on the channel and then on "Releases".

Sadly, no.
The balcony scene is the only scene in this production that "kind of" works, followed by "High flying adored". Before and after that it's just an empty stairs with Zegler stomping around aggressively in black underwear. There basically is no production, aside from those 2 numbers.
