Posted: 2/22/08 at 2:34pmI suggested EVITA because Deet despises that show. Inexplicably.

ohh. I didn't know.
Here is the German song I was talking about:

The singer is pretty good looking.
-Adam Shankman.
"I haven't left this building since Windows 3.1!"
"Celebrating a birthday this week: Rene Descartes is 412! Do you know who he is? Then why are you watching this show? You could probably get into college and even get one of those job things. As for the rest of us; Amanda Bynes is 22! Yay!"
-E!'s "The Soup"

Posted: 2/22/08 at 2:36pmI DON'T despise that show. I just didn't particularly like it when I saw it. With Patti and Mandy.

#985re: Is That You In Your Avatar? – 17: Is That Yo' Mama In My Baby Daddy's A
Posted: 2/22/08 at 2:44pmDown boy. Nothing that exciting. Just that I saw the original production of EVITA with the original cast. And (gasp) I didn't particularly like it.

Oh.
I love the score, but the video I've seen of the Prince version always looked a little bland to me.
I hear that the revival in the UK a couple of years ago was great though.

Posted: 2/22/08 at 2:50pmI think the problem was because of the hype, my expectations were through the roof so I was bound to be disappointed. Prince's staging was anything but bland - it was dynamic and diamond sharp. The performances were everything that everyone says they were, particularly Patti. (One of only two times I've liked her on stage.) But it was a very cold production and while I admired its individual parts, the whole didn't work for me.

Posted: 2/22/08 at 2:54pmPrince's direction and Larry Fuller's choreography were topnotch. I love during "Peron's Latest Flame" when the two factions just miss hitting each other. The aristocracy strut in a fashionable post and the army marches about. The London revival, by comparison, sucked major balls! I've seen clips on YouTube. Very uninspired.

I don't know how much I loved her screaming at everyone. :)
I'm hungry.

Excerpt from one of my books:
"Prince and his designers employed film; harsh, shadow-filled lighting; multilayer scaffolding; and cinematic staging, with the use of the various social strata of Argentina as characters in their own right. EVITA was a mesmerizing, unforgiving illustration of a human being's increasing hunger for adorationg and power, and even though history books excoriate Santa Evita, we, as an audience, are nonetheless drawn to her single-mindedness. Che tries to warn us of her evil, but we can only sense her charisma. Hal Prince's canny use of theatrical magic turns the audience into the masses, who know the evil within but choose to bask in the flair and theatricality of the moment. 'Oh What a Circus' indeed."

Posted: 2/22/08 at 3:06pmYes, you can read about it and watch youtube clips all you like, but I actually saw it, Stagey.

Posted: 2/22/08 at 3:07pmOh. Snappeth.
#994re: Is That You In Your Avatar? – 17: Is That Yo' Mama In My Baby Daddy's A
Posted: 2/22/08 at 3:12pmWell, I've seen various tours. They're all pretty much carbon copies of the original. Prince was even involved in the last one and Larry Fuller directed the '99 tour.

Did they have Patti LuPone and Mandy Patinkin?
No? Oh. Alrighty then.
#997re: Is That You In Your Avatar? – 17: Is That Yo' Mama In My Baby Daddy's A
Posted: 2/22/08 at 3:20pmWell, I got Natalie Toro and Raúl Esparza, who are better looking, IMO.
