Why No DREAMGIRLS Yet? Sep 6
2022, 10:42:11 PM
Most of the show is set backstage, what kind of staging do you want to see? LED screens??
Hudson, Riley, Frenchie Davis, Moya Angela are all great vocalists but they did not rip the roofs off with their AITY. They were just ok. Producers cannot accept just ok for this show. All of the roles are iconic and I'm sure they would want vocal beasts. Effie does not work if she is giving us trained vocals. Holliday, White, and Lewis gave raw vocal techniques, No one can be lacking fr

FUNNY GIRL on Broadway - News & Discussion Thread Apr 24
2022, 11:16:06 PM
The new girls don't have hours of training to take on these roles, so I understand where the backlash comes from. This young lady wished to play Fanny and her training besides vocal lessons was the cast album, film/and soundtrack. She is playing a version of herself, in her bedroom praying to play Barbra as Fanny in FG and not making the role her own. Thus we are reminded of the originator.
You would not want to hear/see Ciara playing Effie White and the same should have appl

The blk American community does not care who wrote the show, It is a staple in our community.
Dreamgirls is an expensive show to run and is Iconic. It was a vehicle for most of the cast that came from the OBC most of whom are still working today 30+ years later. What was the OBC was magic and that is hard to recreate from the cast, design, and sound. There have been attempts to bring the show back to Bway but I don't think they received the recognition they wanted, which I think is

This film was a long commercial and it wasn't to be taken as a masterpiece. It was for theater kids. Ignoring colorism is ppl being ignorant and disrespecting Afro-Latinos/black and brown Americans. Lin is talented but he has continuously benefited from a genre that Brown ppl created and just have one character and that is the representation of them is a slap in the face.
Why is Usnavi rapping? Who were his rap influences? Eminem?

Whoever said it was the wrong time for this show was correct, It should have aired during December.
Everyone looked entirely too young and unbelievable.

ACL2006 said: "Ehhh. That did nothing for me. I'm still trying to see LMM as Bert working out. Just can't see it ending up well."
This story takes place 25 years after Poppins arrives, Lin is playing a character named Jack.
My question is, what will this characters back story be, How did this Puerto Rican man get to England in 1926, there were not many Ricans in England then and now..So???
