Mourning Taboo...

*bows head*

Today is the one year aniversary of Taboo leaving broadway. Granted, the book was a mess but there were some stellar performances and the music was fantastic.

Taboo's Broadway run was such a disappointment. What an underappreciated show. re: Mourning Taboo...

I've been mourning it for a year now. Played the CD all day and some other things, too!
I hung out with Cheyenne Jackson in his dressing room waayyyyyy before he tickled D2.

I wish it had lasted longer...so I could see it. But I fell head over heels in love with the cast recording.

re: Mourning Taboo...

personally, i like the London version. though the bway version has better orchestrations, i thought the london version was more gritty, had a more focused (though not by much) book, was in a better theater (it had tables and seats and Phillip and Petal [a character who is funny but too harsh and transvestite-like for bway audiences] mingled with the audience). the songs where arranged a little differently (Freak is a different song than Ode To.. which starts the show off BRILLIANTLY) there is no composite lover crap, the sets and costumes are more real and in a smaller theater it is SO much more intiment (sp?) and powerfull. check out this great website. it's filled with pics and stuff. I just liked the London better and i find myself more captivated by the recording (though i love Sarah U. Berry) and i think Pual Baker is a GREAT Phillip. i'm off to Zealot skool (hebrew skool) see ya lata

re: Mourning Taboo...

No kidding, munkustrap... Did anyone else tear up at Il Adore or am I the only complete sap?

CQ, I can't imagine anyone topping Raúl, I will have to check out the London CR.

re: Mourning Taboo...

I tear up at a few of them, Il Adore, being one. A year ago at this time, the show was almost coming to the end, and I was sitting there with tears streaming down my face.
