That's great, Dollypop!

I wish Maks read this message thread! Some good ideas, like the role of Boris on 'You Can't Take It With You'! Do know he was a big draw for the B-way shows he was in. Can only imagine he'd be the same for any production.

The two SWAYshow.com performances featuring Meryl Davis on 12/17 are almost sold out, for those interested in seeing Meryl on stage, it's advisable to act sooner than later.

Well, he HAS done something 8x week on Broadway. Twice. Burn the Floor and Forever Tango. For BTF he was nominated for the Fred Astaire Award for Outstanding Male Dancer in a Broadway Show. Neither was a speaking role, though.

Here's their fun Jive to Elvis' 'Hound Dog'. Looks like it could be a scene from the movie.

Didn't know there was already a stage adaptation of DD, Dollypop. Thanks for that info. Pity it wasn't done better and worthy of B-way. It's a great, classic BMG story and incredible dance- it deserves better, imo.

It's been over 20 years since I saw the theater production of 'Into the Woods' so maybe I've forgotten things, but I thought 'morally disgusting' was the entire point? Building on the cautionary tales of Children's Stories & Fables, Sondheim et al, took them to the next step, displaying the ugly side of humanity, fully?

This is great: a new 'Making of SWAY' video. Very candid and lots of excitement and commentary by SWAY headliners, Maks, Val, Tony, Sharna, Henry, Jenna, Serge and a quick bit w/ Zendaya. http://dancewithmeusa.com/the-making-of-sway-2-ep-5-getting-together/

Thanks for the video and walk down memory lane. They really are splendid dancing together, aren't they? Never have seen that sort of connection on DWTS... or any other dance performance, for that matter. Sounds crazy, but just seeing that video makes me feel happier. One of the three shows we'll be seeing features Meryl. Can't wait.

BBW recently posted an excellent interview w/ Maksim Chmerkovskiy. A highlight was his comments about SWAY. Thought I'd create a thread about this incredible show. Here's the interview link: http://www.broadwayworld.com/article/BWW-Interview-Maksim-Cmkerkovskiy-Talks-SWAY-Jewelry-and-Broadway-20141111 Had the good fortune to see both SWAY shows this past summer and my review is at http://tinyurl.com/nqjzscc. It was brilliant. It's not 'just a dance show'. Much, much more to it. It's a story o...

Good for Maks. Give him props for being willing to 'start over' and work on the craft of acting. Not easy to take on something new requiring different skills than his previous work- and do so with the public knowing about it. I think he'd be great at physical comedy... throw back to the 'screwball comedy' era. Would also love to see a remake of Dirty Dancing... Big Screen or adapted as a play.
