As many times as I see Man of La Mancha, I relish the music and high dramatic moments of this classic piece of theatre. Such is the case when the production is top notch, with the perfect actors and highly skilled direction. La Mirada's current revival is top of the line with director Glenn Casale leaving his usual stamp of excellence. The beauty of Man of La Mancha as a musical is that the story is never dated; it lives and breathes in the moment. When it premiered on Broadway in the 1960s it was a winner and now, almost 60 years later, it is just as engrossing. Madness is always fun to play with. What is madness? And...what is normality?

CHICAGO ist eines der heißesten und aufregendsten Musicals, die der Broadway je erlebt hat. Die Show bietet eine leidenschaftliche Mischung aus Liebe und Luge, Ruhmsucht und Eitelkeit, Betrug, Verrat und Verbrechen - garniert mit einzigartigen Tanzszenen und dem Lebensgefuhl der 20er Jahre. Die Premiere von CHICAGO - DAS MUSICAL wurde am 6. November 2014 im Stage Palladium Theater gefeiert in Stuttgart gefeiert. Und das hatten die Kritiker zu sagen:

The world-famous Hollywood Bowl's annual concert presentation of a Broadway musical is CHICAGO this year, directed by actress Brook Shields and features an all-star cast that includes Samantha Barks, Ashlee Simpson, Stephen Moyer, and Lucy Lawless. The show which opened July 27, is a valiant, admirable production that is genuinely entertaining and filled with terrific musical numbers---particularly those that showcase triple-threat phenom Barks, who proves herself to be the show's best, most legit asset. The show continues with two additional performances this weekend.

The new Christmas musical has special meaning for Timothy, who's in his second show this year directed by Casey Nicholaw.
