I thought I'd create a fun thread where we share some of our Broadway-related guilty pleasures...things that are considered "bad" or that we personally think isn't quite good, but we cannot help but really like and maybe re-watch from time-to-time.
I'll start with saying that I can't help it, but there is something I truly love about this Starmites Tony performance:
I'm not talking about that Sharon McNight "Diva" song because it fits Broadway being a female character showing the audience who she is type of song, but I'm talking about that strange title song in the beginning and no shame acting of that pet lizard and the rest of them just going all out. There's a sort of rough courage that resulted in this strange mess, but just a bit more of that is what I think Broadway could use these days.
Another Tony performance I can't help but love is the Starlight Express' performance. "Starlight Sequence (I am a Starlight)" is such a cheesy ballad and the actor was probably told to sing it like a real children's cartoon character, but I can't help but love it and the earnestness of the performance.
is definitely a guilty pleasure of mine!
