Well if we really wanna be real about about Rapunzel's age, it is very easy to to figure it out. That tower looks like it's at least 30 feet high so her hair is at least 25 feet long. 25 x 12 inches = 300 inches. Humans normally grow 6 inches of hair per year. 300/6 = 50. Rapunzel is at least 50 years old. :)

i saw this small non-equity production of dennis deyoung's version of "hunchback" a few years ago at bailiwick rep in chicago. loved it's music much better than the disney version; and the actors were great! here's a couple videos, in case you have seen them: [url]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fpmZKFvO2y4[/url] [url]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mwpss_OazjQ[/url]

they are the skinniest elephants i've ever seen hehe. they don't wear fat suits , just military uniforms and big elephant ears and they use their arms as their trunk

it's a small world wasnt used. i was waiting for that during the show and it didnt happen lol.

i was going to comment on that, i do feel he needs a solo song. he only sang a couple of times with the baloo in bare necessities and very shortly at curtain call. i know in the auditions they werent really requiring mowgli to be a good singer but akash chopra as mowgli has a very good singing voice too.

saw it last night. it's a very enjoyable show. i agree with what other people said, it's very much a lookingglass show, than a disney show. love the indian flavor in set design even though its mostly flats but very colorful and interesting. costumes are quite good too. first act , i think needs a little bit of tweeking , as what someone said here it need to up the silliness. i am sure they will find more of that as they go along with the run. choreography was really good in the king louie son...

i still like rachel crow (x factor usa) for little red http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ey9wq8RohuA

lots of pics here in this video description of the immersive set by david korins: http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/782264519/chance-magazine/posts/475209

"This would be terrific. I doubt I can see it before it closes but I'm obsessed with the concept album" some of the cast members are tweeting today that david byrne announced last night that they are definitely going to have a cast recording. i can't wait for that!

they extended it again for another 4 weeks. now til june 30.

That's a testament to not only the excellent source material but also the performers, all of whom are vo...

rave from the hollywood reporter: http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/review/lies-love-theater-review-444813?utm_source=twitterfeed&utm_medium=twitter&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+thr%2Fnews+%28The+Hollywood+Reporter+-+Top+Stories%29 4/5 stars positive from the guardian/uk: http://www.guardian.co.uk/stage/2013/apr/23/here-lies-love-stage-review

they describe it as a 360 degree multi-media experience. video projections all around and platforms all over that moves around with the audience. the music is mostly "disco" beat but byrne added some new songs including a couple of ballads. there is a concept album released in 2010 where different singers like cindy lauper, tori amos, florence welch ( florence + machine) sang imelda's parts.

i read there are 9 new songs in the show. here are some photos which david korins (set designer) posted in his twitter a couple weeks ago. this one is when they were loading in the sets
