Angela Lansbury to star in 2013 NYC production of Enid Bagnold's The Chalk Garden

The article says :
She is all about moving forward and is already anticipating a role in New York this time next year in the Enid Bagnold play The Chalk Garden

Evita Cast Recording Preview

The orchestra may sound tinny because it's an MP3 sample. Never liked that format.
Well, I hope that's the reason

London LES MISERABLES

The longer it runs, the shorter it gets. Give it a few years and it'll be Les Mis abridged Profile for philitalia | BroadwayWorld Message Board?format=auto&width=600


Most Performances of a Lead Character?

Maybe not a lead, but Lon Satton - Mr Starlight Express
Was Streisand the first to sing the Sunset Blvd songs to the public?

Don't know who was the first to sing these songs to a public, but the "Back To Broadway"-cd contains With One Look and As If We Never Said Goodbye. It was the first time these songs were released to the general public - at least in Europe.
That cd was released before the London Cast Recording.

Streisand turned "Memory" into a huge hit worldwide, so I suppose it made good sense.



Ricky Martin Stage Door Evita

It's a pandemonium out there.


Evita

We saw the show Friday and loved it (maybe a little too polished ?).
I'm not from the US and sometimes (when Elena has to "talk" loudly and quickly she can be a little difficult to understand (and we were in really good seats).

She got a great applause at the end, but I think a big part of the audience came to see Rickyyyyyyy.

Last Friday it was fast-paced and we thought the whole cast and the orchestra sounded wonderful.

This thread was first - though the other is funnier
Broadway Grosses: Week Ending 1/22

Ouch, Mamma Mia must be losing Money Money Money
L or R Orchestra Aisle Seats Nederlander?

If the seat numbers on my seating chart are correct then they're good seats. It's not a very wide stage
L or R Orchestra Aisle Seats Nederlander?

As far as I can remember they're all ok, but I'd try to stay as close to the center as possible
Loudest thing you've heard on stage?

Act 2 of "Buddy-The Musical". 3 weeks later my ears were still ringing

The last few lines of the song "The Winner Takes It All" in Mamma Mia on Broadway. Had to cover ears

WARNING To Anyone Buying The New WEST SIDE STORY Blu-Ray!

What a pity. I was hoping for a nicely restored version for its 50th anniversary. The dvd version I own has some parts where the sound is completely out of sinc with the image Profile for philitalia | BroadwayWorld Message Board?format=auto&width=600

Evita Tickets

According to what I've read opening night is on April 5.

And one more scoop - EVITA is now likely to move to....

Apparently Evita tickets for general public go on sale 29 oct.
Group tickets (Givenik) and some special tix already available ... it's still the Marquis.

Rumor: LES MIZ movie may be shot in 3D... Thoughts?

The "3D without glasses"-technology already exists and some of those tv-sets are already being sold in Japan.

Personally I really don't care much for 3D. It's a nice gadget. Many films available in 3D are actually shot in 2D and then manipulated into 3D (as stated before)

As for Les Mis in 3D ? I hope they spend that money on a good orchestra.

International theater festivals

There's a festival in Avignon in France where companies from outside France perform.
