BWW Feature: BROADWAY VS. HOLLYWOOD Parte 3° I Film tratti dai Musical Di Sir Andrew Lloyd Webber
by ETTORE FARRATTINI - Mar 26, 2020


Chi non ha in casa almeno un cd in cui non ci sia una canzone di Andrew Lloyd Weber: che sia un original cast recording, una compilation o semplicemente una cover, le composizioni di Lloyd Weber sono tra le più conosciute canzoni di musical al mondo. Tutti i più grandi interpreti si sono prima o poi cimentati in una delle sue composizioni tanto che sarebbe impossibile citarli tutti. Se i musical di Sir Andrew sono tra i più visti al mondo e detengono record invidiabili di durata in cartellone sia a Broadway che nel West End, altrettanto non si può dire delle versioni cinematografiche che non sempre sono ben riuscite. Cerchiamo di analizzarne il perché.

Viktoria Tocca Entertainment Presents JESUS CHRIST SUPERSTAR In Dalhalla
by Chloe Rabinowitz - Dec 20, 2019


Det var över hundra sökande till rollen som Maria Magdalena; även videoansökningar från andra länder då musikalen ska spelas på originalspråket engelska. Efter en audition i Stockholm i början av december står det klart att rollen går till soulsångerskan Laila Adéle. Traditionellt sett har Maria Magdalena ofta porträtterats som det vackra, väna kärleksintresset som trånar efter en man. Rollbesättarna var eniga om det är förlegat och kallade därför sångerskor som oftast inte är påtänkta för den här rollen till audition.

BWW Review: JESUS CHRIST SUPERSTAR at Popejoy Hall
by Beth Leitman - Oct 18, 2019


The 50th anniversary tour of Jesus Christ Superstar updates the much-loved Andrew Lloyd Webber musical and modernizes it in a way that makes it more accessible and enjoyable to today's audiences. The musical, which debuted on Broadway in 1971, has reached a world-wide audience since then, with performances in Australia, Europe, and the West End. There have been several filmed versions of the production as well, including the 1973 movie starring Ted Neeley, as well as a more modern retelling of the rock opera in 2000 starring Glenn Carter. Finally, on Easter Sunday, NBC aired a live version of the production starring John Legend as Jesus. The longevity of the musical, as well as the various adaptations that have been made, show just how beloved the show has been for decades.
