Jennifer Lopez to Star in KISS OF THE SPIDER WOMAN Film Jan 31

Jerome Sirlin's sets and projections were indeed stunning in the original London/Broadway productions. Here's video from a German production that duplicated the London/Broadway production complete with Hal Prince's staging and Rob Marshall's choreography. It was captured by a fixed infrared camera mounted on the balcony rail that was used by stage management. (Keep in mind that the use of infrared cameras gives the production members the ability to "see in the dark" so there are some moments you see in the video that are unseen by the audience members and are actually in complete darkness.)

Is there any discussion in the documentary that might shed some light on why she has never received a well deserved Kennedy Center Honor?

I just listened to a recent audience recording of Audra performing ROSES TURN and she sounds absolutely thrilling in the role. I would imagine Audra, being the pro she is, has made some choices to help protect her voice but all I could think about what how in the world does someone perform like that night after night and not incur some vocal damage? Massive respect and admiration for her.

Jordan Catalano said: "I did some LSDbefore seeing it again and it really made some scenes more impactful, especially when the devil comes up from the stage and chased everyone out of the theater by spitting fire at us all."
You must be referring to the "Spooky Merman Hell Dream" number.

Observation said: "I was mindlessly scrolling on Tik Tok and Audra’s “Everything’s Coming Up Roses” from last night popped up. Gotta admit, not my favorite, and she definitely sounds tired at the end of the song, like she’s barely hanging on to keep up. There’s no visual of her, so who knows, maybe her acting choices are supporting this and it’s actually thrilling to see live.
Reminds me of Tyne Daly having a bad vocal night and the show brings in the curtain extra swiftly when Rose usually sustains the last note...

Many of the legends in musicals never used mics.
Not one of those legends would be able to project over modern orchestrations of most of today's musicals.

Any buzz yet as to if there will be a national tour? Would be a relatively small cost to tour it with it's minimalist production design when compared to just about any other major tour. I would think that it would be an attractive option for producers. Perhaps Scherzinger could play the major cities (namely Los Angeles) and then a "name" could play the remaining cities. Can anyone dream up anyone that would be a good fit for Norma that has a name that could sell tickets?.&n

Off topic? Bro, perhaps you should consider correcting your post after doing some quick research.
