You didn't answer my question, Franklin...
Will you attend the tale of Mackie Messer?

Oh, I overread that. In short: I consider it, yes. On the other hand, the reviews were rather vicious. I'm not entirely sure whether I'll, having seen it, think it was a waste of money...

What would be your advice?

I would totally go! The cast seems to be superb nevertheless and since you're so close you really should go!
Most of the time I don't listen to critics...

I wouldn't listen, if they said, they didn't like the interpretation. But here they say, it's boring and tame. And that might work with many shows, but definitely not with THIS one. If this really is boring and tame then they've ruined the whole thing...
But, I'm tending to go nonetheless *lol*
Yes, I've heard Brandauer didn't bring anything "new" to the piece... what I'm suprised about with Brandauer!
But like I said, I would mostly see it because of the cast...
The reviews were really positive about it!

Well not all reviews, I read a few that thought the performances of Campino and Gottfried John to have been quite a bit lame. Well, I will have to see for myself if that's true
Edit: I just see, I might have a peek in the new series running on Sat1 tonight at 21:15, as it features as main character the well known and beloved Mandy Patinkin

Oh, nice! Maybe I'll watch it, too!
And maybe, if the Threepenny Opera really IS that boring you can spend some time on looking around at the renovated Admiralspalast...

looking around in that building for the whole time? Gee, what excitement! *lol* No, then I'd properly suffer through it and prepare my rotten eggs for the bows
She dropped me a PM earlier and told me that should would meet you in a few minutes...
What went wrong?

I hope, she hasn't had an accident or something like that.
Didn't you exchange cell phone numbers or something?

Sounds a bit like the beginning of a spy thriller by Hitchcock, in honor of his birthday today *lol*
Lol!
By the way... Will there be a lot of Hitchcock movies on TV today?
*looks up*

Not one actually, we're too busy celebrating Brecht these days, after all he's dead 50 years now
tough luck for Alfie...
Oh well, I was thinking about putting "Broadway - The American Musical" into my DVD player anyway...
Broadway Legend Joined: 8/25/04
Yes, bought the DVD in London back in January!
It's sooo good and was quite cheap, too!
