Anastacia - 100th Anniversary  Jul 18 2018, 07:45:26 AM

Thanks all for your thoughts.

I do understand how this show came to be, however I would say the historical fact of the executions have always been pretty much solid - the rumors of survival were just that - rumors, basically an urban legend. It has always been pretty much accepted that the probability was that the entire family died (brutally) on that fateful day. The people who made the 1956 film knew this, the people who made the 1997 film knew this - and the people who made the Broa


Anastacia - 100th Anniversary  Jul 17 2018, 10:22:56 AM

Good for you. Does this mean that all audience-members are aware of the truth?

The animated musical film is just as questionable. Would you enjoy a musical about Anne Frank where she somehow miraculously escaped the annex and lived happily ever after with Prince Charming?



Anastacia - 100th Anniversary  Jul 17 2018, 08:20:31 AM

Well, yes...that is the commonly accepted anglicized version of her name. Thank you for pointing out my unfortunate typo.



Anastasia - 100th Anniversary  Jul 17 2018, 07:53:36 AM

Today marks a century since the brutal murders of the Romanov familiy at Ekaterinburg, Russia.

 

Despite what the Broadway musical would have you believe, Anastacia, aged just 17, was in fact killed alongside the rest of her family, first she was shot and then viciously slaughtered with bayonets. This was proven conclusively when all of the remains were found and verified in the late 1990s.

Will the Broadway show that bears her name be marking this occasi


Mean Girls RECASTED  Jul 3 2018, 09:59:40 AM

Ten or eleven responses and all of them negative, each one piling on.

This is a harmless little thread, not your cup of tea, that's fine, skip it. Find some bigger fish to fry.

OP, don't worry about them.

Dame Gillian Lyne, choreographer of Cats and Phantom of the Opera has passed away  Jul 3 2018, 09:11:26 AM

Regardless, her work will survive in the memory of those who saw it, the work it inspired, and also the DVD!



Dame Gillian Lyne, choreographer of Cats and Phantom of the Opera has passed away  Jul 2 2018, 07:52:02 AM

A great life and lady is now extinguished forever. That's devastating, 92 or not. Nobody can go on forever, but that does not make the loss any more real.

I always enoyed her appearances in the various documentaries she participated in, she seemed so nice and such good fun too. Her work will live on. Rest in peace.



Help with show choice?  Jun 19 2018, 09:47:20 AM

 Make the effort to see Once On This Island. I have no idea about availability, sorry.

Thanks for all the great links, guys.



Bruce Springsteen - special Tony Award disgust  Jun 18 2018, 11:13:26 AM

If it's true that the theatre staff are getting paid for eight shows a week, that's great. Bruce does not deserve the plaudits though if he has jacked up the prices disproportionately to pay for it - the staff have the ticketbuyers to thank instead. It's their $$$. How many millions can one guy need? I would love to know the justification for the high ticket prices. Supply and demand does not cut it. He could easily have lower prices and a strict ID policy to stamp out touts - if

Has Anastasia recouped?  Jun 18 2018, 10:29:44 AM

Today is Anastasia's birthday, so today would be a good day to announce.

100 years ago today, she was celebrating her 17th birthday under lock & key, only a month before she was brutally murdered ( despite what this musical may lead you to believe...poor taste...?)...

 



Cats- It's Reception Then And Now  Jun 18 2018, 10:12:47 AM

I think back then it had genuine merit what with its original staging and going out on a limb artistically.

The problem now is that it is just a cash cow for Really Useful Company and has no integrity anymore.



I need opinions on what to see!  Jun 18 2018, 09:11:03 AM

I always try to stream or listen to the recording as well as watching whatever YouTube videos are up - not to be rude, but don't listen to what other posters may say because it will all come down to your own taste... You know you better than anybody, or else just let the seating options decide it for you.

Once On This Island is so great however so I would say see it!



Working In The Pit  Jun 18 2018, 09:04:58 AM

Hey thanks, gdelgi, they seem like interesting reads.

I always applaud when the orchestra finish their exit music, I'm not the only one, but most people are either gone or don't care by that time. I feel bad that they don't get due recognition apart from maybe the cast pointing to the conductor or whatever.



Working In The Pit  Jun 18 2018, 07:47:06 AM

What is it like for the musicians who work in the orchestra?

Do they get bored playing the same music eight times a week or what? Does the conductor vary from night to night and switch it up or do they play it exactly the same way every time? Is this their main job or do they work somewhere else during the day? What's it like being stuck in the ground with very little contact with or appreciation from the audience?

The main question I'm asking is this : is it a fun job o
