OUCH!

I feel for him. So much of this production isn’t his fault, but he’s the name, so he gets the blame. Hope it doesn’t make him regret going back to theater. He’s trying to go against type with his HBO show and this, but I’d prefer to see him in something that shows off his personality and his dancing. He needs to embrace the nice guy!

What sucks is that they did not give him a press ticket. He gives really good reviews on his channel and is a legitimate theatre critic.

 

 


The idea is to work and to experiment. Some things will be creatively successful, some things will succeed at the box office, and some things will only - which is the biggest only - teach you things that see the future. And they're probably as valuable as any of your successes. -Harold Prince

These are about what I expected, having read and heard from people that have seen it. I’m not seeing this for a couple months and wasn’t exactly “excited” in the first place, moreso just looking forward to seeing Holland on stage now I’m kind of dreading it a bit. 
 

I hope this makes Lloyd update his bag of tricks (or bag of no tricks) because not every show needs it. I’ve enjoyed a couple of his shows, his “Evita” with Samantha Pauly probably being my favorite. I wasn’t as taken by “Sunset” as most everyone was but recognize that people thought his schtick worked for that one in places, I didn’t.

But I’d really love to see what else Lloyd can do besides these no set/no costume $200 a ticket staged readings with Ivo’s cameras.

That Variety review is brutal. 


Well I didn't want to get into it, but he's a Satanist. Every full moon he sacrifices 4 puppies to the Dark Lord and smears their blood on his paino. This should help you understand the score for Wicked a little bit more. Tazber's: Reply to Is Stephen Schwartz a Practicing Christian

Reviews seem like they skew positive esp around the performances from Tom and Francesca. Like any Lloyd production its divisive around the staging which I expected

The reviews are giving me "Slings and Arrows" vibes. Darren Nichols liked to suck all the emotion and coherence out of his stage productions too.

I absolutely loved it. I don't care what the critics say - Jamie Lloyd has done it again, and while some of the tricks feel familiar it works. He manages to make what I think is quite a boring play, not-so-boring. And Tom Holland is excellent - at times he might be underplaying the role because he forgets he is on stage not film but if you're sitting closely enough you can look closely at his facial expressions and see he is doing good work. The use of electronic music I found particularly innovative and thrilling.

 

 


"You can't overrate Bernadette Peters. She is such a genius. There's a moment in "Too Many Mornings" and Bernadette doing 'I wore green the last time' - It's a voice that is just already given up - it is so sorrowful. Tragic. You can see from that moment the show is going to be headed into such dark territory and it hinges on this tiny throwaway moment of the voice." - Ben Brantley (2022) "Bernadette's whole, stunning performance [as Rose in Gypsy] galvanized the actors capable of letting loose with her. Bernadette's Rose did take its rightful place, but too late, and unseen by too many who should have seen it" Arthur Laurents (2009) "Sondheim's own favorite star performances? [Bernadette] Peters in ''Sunday in the Park,'' Lansbury in ''Sweeney Todd'' and ''obviously, Ethel was thrilling in 'Gypsy.'' Nytimes, 2000

I walked by the (controlled) mob scene outside the theatre last night as hundreds (it seemed - well definitely at least 100) were lined up behind barricades waiting for Holland to come out into a waiting car whose door was open. It was not as chaotic as I experienced seeing David Tennant in Richard II, only because there were more security people around to control the crowd. it was quite the scene! I would have stopped to take a video, but was being asked to pass through quickly.
