From: BroadwaySergey.com: http://www.broadwaysergey.com/2009/03/west-side-story-broadway-review.html "During the performance of “Maria” voice of Tony (Matt Cavenaugh) was ok, but too dim and not sonorous. It sounded like a bad opera singer for me. Sometimes too high, sometimes too quiet that I couldn’t hear beginning and the end of some words in the song. His acting wasn’t perfect-pitching also" "Set and light design did not really impress me. Especially light design. In my opinion there shou...

7 people at 2 pm? I was there around 3 pm and noone was there. Theatre workers told me to come back at 7 am. I am confused... lol

I saw the first preview and it was really great. Everything in this show is great: the story, sets, music, lyrics, choreography. I really liked the colors on the stage, the light design was perfect, it was really amazing, it’s impossible to explain, you have to see it live. Kiril Kulish was great. I want to compare him with Liam Mower from the original London cast. He was as brilliant as him, the same level. Excellent job! And Electricity was performed brilliantly! I think that is the show le...

Yesterday I watched 13 again. Not because I like it, just got free ticket, lol. So I made new review (part 2) on YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ioodMUva2gk Well, have to admit they improved it a lot since first preview and now it looks much better and…faster. They got rid of the intermission as well as of 2 songs: one was in the end of the first act (“Here I come”) and second was in the beginning of the second(“Opportunity”). So now it looks faster and not boring as last time. It is ...

I understand that there is an economical crisis but still.. Average hostel price in NYC $15-$30 a day! Average discount ticket for a Broadway show is $49 for orchestra and close to stage! (if u buy in the box office). Average fast food meal - $8. So to come to nyc for a day and see 1 great Broadway show from the orchestra and close to stage u need about $100 + plane/bus/train tickets cost. SO it’s not so bad. Of course if u want to stay in 4-5 star hotel and eat in 2-3 star restaurants.. yeah...

It was my first Broadway play (not musical). I was so excited. U can see my video review on YouTube. Lol The play is great and no need to tell more about it. I sat on the “stage seats” and there were some disadvantages and advantages: A plus: You see behind the stage work and you see some details from angles that impossible to see from the orchestra (and in the nude scene too, lol). A minus: The seats not exactly on stage. It’s above the stage (on the balcony level!!!). And you have to lean a...

People, do you really think that “13” is better than “In the Heights” and “Wicked”??? )))))) LMAO I can’t really explain it, I haven’t got the words))))

Hehe. So not only I think that this show is not good enough for Broadway. )) BenKaye and Broadwayfan3 I agree with many of your points. Especially not good enough book, choreography (except first and last songs, lol), and this show is really not for adults. Some people ask why do I think that this show is not for adults, and why do I think that it’s ok for people under 16. Well, first of all I just assume that, I am not sure. I just said that you will PROBABLY like it if you are below 15 year...

Thanks for responses! I just want to add several things. 1. Of course it is only my opinion. I do not generalize. I just think (and yes, it’s only MY opinion) that the show is designed more for kids audience rather than for adults. And I didn’t say that the show is BAD and you shouldn’t watch it. But I really think it doesn’t worth $60-$120 like any other Broadway show, and a lot of kids can’t afford that price anyway. 2. If you think that the show is so great, can you name a musical on Broad...

I watched the first preview of the “13”. My points: 1. The lyrics is really simple, silly and sometimes stupid. Like for example “A friend won’t smoke when she’s in your room…. A friend won’t go and start kissing your brother the minute you’re out of sight”. It was in the song “What means to be a friend”. And the much worse and sillier in other songs. I mean have you seen “Hamlet 2” in the movie theater? Do you remember the musical they produced? Well the lyrics remind me that musical because...

I was in the second row from the stage. Have a lot of great videos. Check my video summary: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=635ZspPdpFs
