The Grinning Man

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

The Story

As many of bạn don't know, the story is base on Puccini's tragic opera, 'Madama Butterfly'. Which change the location and time period from Nhật Bản to Vietnam in the midst of the Vietnam War, the only difference is that Kim is a bar girl whereas con bướm, bướm is just an ordinary 15 năm 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 bởi 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.

So after a ngày where I was told to go to college to get a high-paying job and make my passion for nghề viết văn 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 yêu thích âm nhạc 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 bạn know a woman named Mary Martin played Peter Pan?" I had seen the Disney 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 thêm than the Disney 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 hoặc 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 Jesus 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 ngày Saints as its focus?

Binarism, a word which here means has to be a man hoặc woman. For Peter Pan, this means The coloring looks like a búp bê barbie doll & the áo sơ mi is WAY too low cut, the V emphasizes Alison Willams' breasts, particularly when she's in motion, the cá 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, hoặc like a stripper! Being that Alanna Saunders is Cherokee, this is intersectional racism, hoặc 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 hiển thị proved to them that âm nhạc were far thêm than anything they have ever known hoặc seen. This hiển thị was the white rabbit that lead them into a phantasmagorical land of diva ballads, chorus numbers, and red curtains. For me, personally, this hiển thị 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...
