What better way to kick off a series of reviews than with a musical I am sure only 20 percent of あなた have heard of!!!????...yeah. Well, for the 80 percent, here is some background information:The Austrian musical "Elisabeth" is one of the most successful German language ミュージカル of all time.

"Pippin" is a musical composed によって Stephen Schwartz ("Wicked") and directed/choreographed によって stage and dance legend Bob Fosse. It is one of the longest running ミュージカル known and has a revival that's currently already starting to run. The plot takes place in the middle ages where Pippin, the son of King Charlemagne, feels unsatisfied with his life and tries different lifestyles in order to seek his purpose. And without giving away anything that happens, and that's the 表示する in a nutshell. Although Pippin and Charlemagne were both famous figures in history, this 表示する is about as historically reliable...

Years before the announcement of the film, I was away in my giant Les Miserables phase, and enjoying every bit of the fandom from 書く comics about the characters (involving voodoo dolls) to wasting my time on フォーラ boards 読書 potential cast members for the film. After watching the King's Speech and hearing the announcement of Tom Hooper's direction, I was thrilled that this long-awaited baby would be delivered によって what seemed to be a good midwife. After months of anticipation, I saw the movie クリスマス Night
I know I am going to be speared for this, but I adored the film adaptation. I...

Hi guys, I had long to see this musical, which is base on Puccini's tragic opera 'Madame Butterfly'. So here are my reasons on why I 愛 to see the famous musical!

The Songs

I knew some of the songs like 'Why God Why?' and 'Bui Doi', just to name a few. That I could not get them out of my head! My favourite song is 'Sun & Moon' because it's such a sweet song that あなた want to sing it with your 愛 ones!
The other song that I 愛 is 'I Still Believe' which is a very sad song that I nearly cried while listening to it.

The Story

As mentioned, the story is base on Madame バタフライ, 蝶 and the only difference is that the settings is change from Imperial 日本 to Vietnam, in the midst of the Vietnam War in the 1970's.

Remembering Her, Just Her!

So, if あなた 愛 ミュージカル and feel eager to watch this tragic musical like myself. Go ahead and watch it!
 They're called Bui Doi!

Hi guys, I managed to watch the 25th Anniversary of Miss Saigon and I was really blown away によって not only the show, but the actors playing the main characters. So are あなた ready time travel back to the Vietnam War?

The Story

As many of あなた don't know, the story is base on Puccini's tragic opera, 'Madama Butterfly'. Which change the location and time period from 日本 to Vietnam in the midst of the Vietnam War, the only difference is that Kim is a bar girl whereas バタフライ, 蝶 is just an ordinary 15 年 old Japanese girl.
Secondly, Butterfly's uncle (The Bonze) and her one-time fiance (Prince Yamadori)...

"Jekyll and Hyde" the musical, like its protagonist, can switch between being bad and being good. Also like the doomed scientist, although it works to ignore that its bad, often the bad wins over the good.
The "Musical Thriller" is based on the 19th century novel によって Robert Louis Stevenson. Although the novels actual plot tends to be forgotten, what has made the story so famous is its main premise: a doctor named Henry Jekyll experiments with himself in an attempt to separate the bad side of him from the good. What results is the birth of his uncontrolled スプリット, 分割 personality, the sinister and murderous...

So after a 日 where I was told to go to college to get a high-paying job and make my passion for 書く a hobby, I listened to the Original Broadway Cast of "Little Women." "Better" captures Jo's character better than all the adaptions I've seen "Home Alone" gives Marrmee's character the development she has been so long denied. "Could You?" Makes Aunt March the manipulative witch she is. "I'd Be Delighted" gives Meg's character a bit of nuance. "Take a Chance on Me" will please any Jo and Laurie shipper. "Small Umbrella in the Rain" sells Jo March MARRYING better than any other adaption!...

"Peter Pan" was my first Broadway musical, and is one of my お気に入り ミュージカル besides "The Phantom of the Opera," "Annie," and "Oliver!" When I was six my family and I went to BlockBuster and got the VHS tape of "Peter Pan" my mom had asked me "Do あなた know a woman named Mary Martin played Peter Pan?" I had seen the ディズニー version, so a woman playing Peter was special. I liked Peter because he didn't grow up, and he could fly. I watched the Mary Martin version with my family. My Brother, Sister, Mom, Dad, and me. I LOVED it もっと見る than the ディズニー version. Though we lived out in rural New Mexico...

Let’s face the truth.
Religion is a touchy subject.
So touchy, that dare sort of medium discusses または uses it, there will be hate letters and hate mail streaming through the creators mailboxes and computers. Even Godspell as harmless as it seemed was criticized for portraying ジーザス as a clown.
    So what happens when Trey Parker and Matt Stone, the writers of a notoriously offensive, but surprisingly thoughtful and extremely well-written cartoon series make a musical discussing religion, using The Church of Latter 日 Saints as its focus?
    One freaking...

Binarism, a word which here means has to be a man または woman. For Peter Pan, this means The coloring looks like a バービー doll & the シャツ is WAY too low cut, the V emphasizes Alison Willams' breasts, particularly when she's in motion, the 魚 netting gives it a hint of sexuality. For Tiger Lily, it's even worse! I'm nonbinary, and I don't dress in party streamers, または like a stripper! Being that Alanna Saunders is Cherokee, this is intersectional racism, または racism and sexism combined! The choreography for "True Blood Brothers" emphasizes the cut in the stripper outfit that goes up to her...

For every Musical Fanatic, there will always be that one show. This 表示する proved to them that ミュージカル were far もっと見る than anything they have ever known または seen. This 表示する was the white rabbit that lead them into a phantasmagorical land of diva ballads, chorus numbers, and red curtains. For me, personally, this 表示する was Phantom of the Opera. I had first learned about Phantom when I was 11 and at the time, there were no nearby touring productions. But thanks to the wonders of YouTube, I knew a film of the musical existed and rented it as soon as I could. This film became the center my pre-teen...

People of the internet, welcome to Dickensworld!
Dickensworld is a magical, fascinating place. あなた will find yourself in England, especially in London, from the period of 1820-1865. Be sure to take note that all the poor people are poor because they have visible rags, dirt all over their face, are super skinny, and have big, 子犬 dog eyes, cementing every Conservative’s idea of what a poor person looks like. This social commentary will be almost everywhere. It’s filled with interesting characters weather they are pure, sweet angels, eccentrics, または Lucifer incarnate. Oh, and keep an eye...

When I first viewed Pippin with Ben Vereen in the DVD of the 1982 Toronto production, I had one giant problem with it that was keeping from absolutely loving this musical; it was dated. Weather it was the hair, the music, または the 全体, 全体的です staging, the cobwebs somehow kept me from completely appreciating this wonderful musical.
And then came this revival, and it did just that. I can describe it in just 2 words: circus spectacle. It is easy to have a big Broadway musical that is spectacular in the fact that the spectacle in which millions of dollars are spent on it to make it look huge, but here,...

In 1975, a stage musical based on a stage play, Chicago, premiered.It enjoyed a modest amount of success and years later, when the revival came up, it became the 6th longest running musical on Broadway. In 2002, a film adaption of the musical was released, directed によって Rob Marshall. It was this version that got the much-desired praise. It won several Oscars, including Best Picture. However many people who viewed the film- critics and ordinary people-saw the film as insanely overrated. So is Chicago all that jazz? または is it one crummy dummy hubby of mine? Let's review what the film accomplishes...

I have mixed feelings about the NBC Live Musicals. (Please take note, I have not seen its Sound of Music).
On one hand, they are getting ミュージカル back into mainstream culture, sparkling an interest in ミュージカル into the 次 generation, and giving families something fun to watch on テレビ together.
But on the other hand, from what I have heard about from the Sound of 音楽 live…They can be pretty overblown copies that add “cool” millennial crap.
Peter Pan Live, though I was extremely skeptical at first about it, is surprisingly better than I thought. It has its problems, oh yes it...

20. ホーム (The Wiz). The first song on this 一覧 is for sentimental reasons. This was the last song I ever sang in a chorus. And it always brings back memories from my childhood about growing up and finding home. I 愛 the lyrics, the song is pretty, and....I just 愛 it all!!!

19.My フレンズ (Sweeny Todd). Oh god, this song gives me chills! I never saw the play, but after hearing this on the CD I couldn't stop listening to it! I even tried 歌う it...as a joke, I started 歌う to my キッチン knives to my mom, but she didn't get the reference. Then she went berserk...whoops, >_>....

Mussical theatre was actually an accident. there was a play going on in new york in 1866 called 'The Black Crook'. The producers thought it needed もっと見る pazzas.
Meanwhile, a ballet was going on down the street. it was opening night but before it opened the theatre was burned down.
In order to save both shows, they mixed both productions together. yes, the audience was surpised,but they loved it. New york came out with some new productions and musical theatre was born!
Yes, everything in this 記事 is ture. i know, i was suprised too.

This past season on Broadway is sadly over, but it is not one to be forgotten. It has entered a new wave of hit musicals, bringing new ideas to the stage with every performance. From the amazing new rock opera, Spring Awakening, to revivals of much-loved shows such as Stephen Sondheim's Company, this season has had so much to offer, with six new ミュージカル at the Tony awards, five revivals, and many plays, including the fantastic, three part Coast of Utopia.

The ミュージカル were my personal focal point this season. The first one I'd like to bring up is Company によって Stephen Sondheim. It ended up winning...

THIS IS VERY URGENT AND NOT A JOKE! ALSO DON'T GOOF OFF!!!!

I really mean it! What would あなた be able to do if SOPA/TPP censors the internet? What would あなた be able to do if 書く fanfics and drawing fanarts become illegal? What would あなた do if it's illegal to do a cover of your お気に入り song on YouTube? What would あなた do if downloading things from the internet (music, movies, TV episodes, etc) became illegal? What would あなた do if SOPA/TPP wins the war and takes away internet freedom? Net Neutrality is already dead so far, we can't risk the freedom of internet...
