I know I sound silly. Please forgive, but for a theatre novice - what do you mean by marking?

Favourite Title of a Musical
Jan 11
2011, 07:09:34 AM
You could list endless musicals, but select a few titles of musicals which you just love, or if not love, appreciate that they are good titles! A few that made the shortlist: Company, Cat on a Hot Tin Roof (Play, I know) but my two favourites have to be:
A Little Night Music - just love the image that I get when I think of this, summer in the country, subtle music in the background, wind blowing curtains(!)
Spring Awakening - again, good imagery e.g. birth/rebirth, sexual awak

Do you think 'The Addams Family' has any chance of snagging Tonys?
Apr 11

SayWhyNot. Understand what you are saying, but I have to agree with the comment that you can recognise and appreciate orchestrations. Casting my mind back to N2N, although everything about it was great, I must admit the orchestrations were a striking element and addition to the piece. Just my thoughts :)

It's just always funny to see this happen. When shows like Shrek/Next to Normal even Billy would win categories this year that they didn't last because competition was so tough last year (and still is in some catergories) but for best musical/score, the choice really isn't that great.

NEXT TO NORMAL Tour plans

I can't comment on Phillips. But I do disagree that Ripley doesn't bring any quirky-ness to the role, that's all I could see for the first 15 minutes of the show and throughout "My Psychpharmacologist and I".

Sister Act - will it transfer to Broadway?
Jan 18

I personally didn't like Sister Act (Have seen it at the Palladium) It's more commercial and doesn't have a very exciting score (Billy Elliot Syndrome!).

How famous is Kristin Chenoweth?

I am also interested by this. I mean, you would think an original cast member of Wicked would be quite well known. I don't really see her doing much *correct me if I'm wrong* I know she's in a few things and has hosted a few things but compared to Menzel, she doesn't seem to have found her place yet.

Billy Elliot - Why The Hate
Jan 13
2010, 02:36:23 PM
I agree that the score is extremely weak - and so thankfully did not win the Tony for Best Score, I have no idea how or why It was nominated.
Although I don't like the show, I cannot doubt it's choreography. Personally, the story doesn't appeal to me and add that to a bland score and static set = Not the best production.
I agree it's a "good" production with it's merits but not deserving of the hype.

Back to the topic - I love Next to Normal and hope it lasts a fair few more months!

NEXT TO NORMAL Sets New Record

Avenue Q is *near to closing* and no longer has the presence Wicked has internationally. I applaud Avenue Q for winning the Tony, great! I'm sure Avenue Q would want to trade places with Wicked's success anyday.
I personally think, as a production, Wicked has, and will continue to win. Avenue Q had a good run, but it doesn't have the commercial success Wicked has. And, unfortunately, that's what counts.

No idea if it's true - apparently at Theatre Royal, Drury Lane

To be honest, who do you think has won between Avenue Q or Wicked?
*cough* Wicked's still running on Broadway, West End, Germany, Sydney and many other places*

Worth It?

I'm thinking of coming to NY next summer, but what shows will be "still" open at that time? (Can't be sure- of course) and is there anything I "have to see" if I come.
I don't want to come and be met with a mediocre set of shows, with nothing that really stands out.
Thanks
