I've read that they've reworked the show a bit since I saw it, and some of the changes are bad For example, an entire song, a very pretty one, has been cut.
That's dissappointing.
I look forward to seeing it, but I'm sorry to have missed those. Are the cut songs on the OCR, or are they just gone?
Eari, I love Sarah Brightman! She's got a wonderful voice.
Also, I don't think that Les Mis is currently showing in NYC. It's only in Toronto and London, as far as I know. Of course, there are still scads of good shows here.
TM, don't see the movie. It's very well done visually, but Rossum and Butler aren't up to it vocally. Much better on stage. (On an unrelated note, I loved your last sig.
Sara Ramirez was brilliant.)
Woman in White was slated to do a pre-Broadway run for this season's Broadway in Chicago but due to casting disputes they pulled it and are moving it straight to New York. We were pissed since that was the main reason we renwed our tickets again!!!
You do know what this means, right?
Yay for Joseph and the Amazing Technicolour Dream Coat! Still one of my favourite shows. I saw a community theatre version when I was 10 and loved it.
The Phantom isn´t meant to be sexy, is he?
Absolutely not, which is one of the problems with Butler is that he's too good looking, and they made minimal effort to hide that. It's just weird.
Jesus Christ Superstar is a wonderful show.
I saw the movie version when I was 12, maybe, and then my mum took me to see the stage version for my birthday one year. It was fabulous. I've always wanted to play Judas. And the Phantom, actually. Although, my dream role right now is probably Elphaba in Wicked. Wow, that was some serious train of thought.
