"The Spectacle has, indeed, an emotional attraction of its own, but, of all the parts, it is the least artistic, and connected least with the art of poetry. For the power of Tragedy, we may be sure, is felt even apart from representation and actors. Besides, the production of spectacular effects depends more on the art of the stage machinist than on that of the poet."

Oh, lord.
Scratch and claw for every day you're worth!
Make them drag you screaming from life, keep dreaming
You'll live forever here on earth.

Too bad Nancy Walker is gone, whenever I think,
"Who could direct a Village People Musical?"
The obvious choice is Nancy walker!

Posted: 7/20/12 at 2:18pmThe really sad thing is, most people are probably going to see these jukebox travesties over something with a new score.

Posted: 7/20/12 at 2:34pmThe really really sad thing is, new scores don't always mean good scores. Or good shows. I'll take a fun jukebox show with songs I like over The Addams Family, Spider Man, Brooklyn, Amour, Thou Shalt Not, Shrek, Glory Days, The Story of My Life, 13...
