Grease Live? No.
>>70768938
Damn. I like Grease
>>70768908
She's so fucking good
>>70768918
What? No.
is color purple musical good? i think i read the book for a class back in highschool but i don't remember anything about it. the music sounds gud.
Law and Order keeps so many actors afloat as they need something like 20 new actors for each episode.
The fuck is on this singer's head?

I've seen her 4 times on the West End.
went to see a Jason Robert Brown revue she performed in. She literally cried a perfect tear during a sad song, BOTH performances at the EXACT same time.
She's some kind of musical machine.
Did anyone else watch Driving Miss Daisy with Angela and James? It was recorded live and it's pretty good.

I don't watch theater but I am amazed how many movie actors are nominated in this show

Is this still on? Is there a working stream?
>>70769206
theatre is where they go to *actually* act. movies are child's play.
>>70769147
Fun fact : Nathan Lane played an openly gay man in 'The Birdcage' alongside Robin Williams.
Is Lupita as much of a meme in theater as she is in film?

Great movie. It's like a time capsule of Miami.

>>70769186
Because the performers move their heads around so much during a musical, even without dancing, you can't really put it anywhere else, since the sound that is picked up will be uneven depending on the head position relative to the body.
>hate niggers and faggots
>love broadway
this is true suffering
>>70769247
and The Birdcage is based on La Cage Aux Folles, which is a movie that was turned into a 10/10 musical

Scamming Spring Awakening cast!
Is Hair the musical about the fat bitch?
Spring Awakening was insufficiently mic'd.
I would genocide this board if it guaranteed me tickets to Hamilton, to be honest.

>>70769504
Same. Also I love Streep so much.
What is the best musical?
>>70769570
of all time?
>>70769531
Yeah. The producer was making it sound like they needed the Kickstarter funds to be on the Tony's--but the performance was locked in weeks ago. The producer just wants to get his money back, since it costs hundreds of thousands to perform on the show.
>>70769370
Because I have patrician tastes, I appreciate technical excellence in performance. I also enjoy opera immensely. But Broadway gets new and experimental works that push creative boundaries.
I also love classic literature, and all the ancient Greeks and Romans were faggots. And niggers are fucking fantastic at singing and dancing.
>>70769570
West Side Story
daliy reminder that broadway theater is one of the least democratic art forms in the world that is only appreciated by the few richest of the world and a few measly lotteries will never fix that

That's why I don't give a single fuck about cast and cry bitching about bootlegs. People wouldn't even be watching them if traveling/lodging/tickets wasn't mad expensive.
Wasn't this all over YouTube why would they waste time airing this?

I meant crew what the fuck just happened in my brain
>>70769724
>People wouldn't even be watching them if traveling/lodging/tickets wasn't mad expensive.
Eh I'd still watch them. Because there's now way you could possibly go and see every new cast, every new actor, etc.
>>70769735
who cares
>>70769749
>imagefag calling other people cancer
>>70769731
To promote Corden's shitty late night show
>>70769731
they probably cut bits of the Hamilton performance because of the shooting and replaced it with this gigantic waste of time.
Thank god for this like 8 minute long segment, so they can cut short people's speeches later <3
so are they setting up the next number in the background? is that why they played that car thing so long?
>>70769708
>>70769731
Some people didn't get their acceptance speeches televised but THANK GOD we got to watch this "live"
>>70769811
not worth tbbqh
Damn it Frank you've got four!
The guy from dumb and dumber should've won
>>70769791
They didn't cut any part of the performance, they're just removing the prop muskets.
Frank stop making me sad and go sit down Jesus.
>He could die any single night, while performing, with high chances.
fuck i am not ready to feel
Poor frank he's gonna get cut short
>it's a Frank Langella bums everyone out episode.

The gay bar killing spree probably hit the theater community the hardest
F-Frank. Don't you make me cry!
For real tho, how does a deaf girl perform in a play?
How are you performing, Spring Awakening?? You didn't meet the goal
>>70769933
i get that you're trying to make a snarky joke but you are right in a way that honestly isn't very amusing. gay people like theater and don't like being targeted by terrorists
>>70769978
we'll find out!
THIS PERFORMANCE IS A SCAM
top kek who was that edgy douche
This is guaranteed to get a standing ovation isn't it?
Spring Awakening 2edgy4me bro.

Never seen Spring Awakening. It's about teenagers fucking or something isn't it?
how is she so based?
>>70770191
It's about teen angst.
>>70770191
>>70770199
It's about sexually repressed teenagers in late 1800s Germany.

The performance for Spring Awakening was just like the original cast's performance except they didn't do mama reprise and they finished bitch of living instead of performing totally fucked

There's no point in performing songs with swears in them because they're too censored.

I gave up on the stream because it was being fucky I'm just watching on TV.

Sweeney Todd if you're just getting into it.
>>70770399
Any musical ever? Probably something like West Side Story, Into the Woods, or Les Miserables. Popular and accessible.
>>70770399
depends on what you are interested in! Book of Mormon is pretty great in my opinion.
>>70770444
>On Your Feet! is a jukebox musical based on the lives and music of husband and wife Emilio Estefan and Gloria Estefan.
My first musical should be about the life of the Estefan's? I'm skeptical
>>70770399
Just go with the standard entry level musicals. Wicked, Phantom, Lion King. Get into the more patrician stuff later.
C'moooon Crucible!
>>70770538
it's simple, catchy and short. Not a bad entry imho but obviously if you want something more substantial go for Les Mis or something.
>>70770531
I watched Hugh Jackman and Russel Crowe do Les Miserables. I'm not counting it because it was in movie form
>>70770399
what state do you live in? we can look up if there are any decent theaters or opera houses that put on musicals and tell you what looks good
>>70770533
>Book of Mormon
I had a friend who watched that and decided to become a Mormon

Sexually repressed in the sense that they're societally repressed. Pretty much everyone gets some though. The entire point of the show is that they all wanna fuck each other and be free but the adults are dumbasses who won't let them.
>>70770399
I honestly think Les Miserables and Jesus Christ Superstar are the most perfect musicals in terms of well-roundedness. They're great but not the greatest musicals but they're high-tier. You want to get into the GOAT Sondheim afterwards, stay away from Andrew Lloyd Webber, he's a hack.
Speaking of The Crucible, you should check out the one available on Digital Theatre if you haven't already.
I had to read Arthur Miller's Death of a Salesman in high school

Aw shit here comes Hamilton!!!
>>70770739
The only people who get some are Wendla and Melchior, Hanschen and Ernst, Martha and Ilse were sexually abused by their fathers and also it's implied Ilse was raped. So basically less than half the cast
My god, this is ridiculous.

>>70770878
>>70770895
We can't watch it on demand here.
HamilTON!
>>70770740
No. Les Miserables is bad for a first timer because they stick with the full-singing, even when it would make more sense to use dialogue. So someone new to musicals might think all shows are like that and be put off.
God that awful recitative/Valjean's confession, ugh.

Rapping on Broadway is like listening to an opera singer do pop music or a classical musician try and play jazz.
I'd rather see Chance the Rapper or Action Bronson do Hamilton.
>Lafayette trying to be DMX
They're not using prop muskets but they still pantomime it
>>70771111
Chance the Rapper is actually going to be on the Hamilton mixtape coming out.
this is just an "intelligent" epic battles of history lmao it's not impressive
>>70770995
lol I moved out of Lawrence 4 years ago. it's still my hometown tho
>>70771158
>yfw they think fucking muskets would be offensive because of Orlando
>hey anon Hamilton is really good
I almost bought that
>>70771111
Neither of them would suck LMM's cock though, so they wouldn't get cast.
On a totally unrelated note, Jonathan Groff and LMM shared a dressing room at Hamilton.
>>70770937
What do you mean? You can buy from Digital Theatre internationally! I'm in the US.
>>70771162
Then it looks like my opinion is correct. They can't sell this shit to black people. It's too white in its current form. Which is surprising considering how many black people are in it.
>"Immigrants, we get the job done"
>*crowd applauds*
>>70771263
Yeah, Fuck Trump! Greatest play of ALL TIME!
>>70771253
>They can't sell this shit to black people. It's too white in its current form.
Shut the fuck up and kill yourself.
>>70771263
they literally run every hotel and hospital in every city in America.
Aw, I was hoping they were doing a medley. I read somewhere they were going to do a medley with Wait for You.
Yorktown is still great though.
>>70771111
daveed diggs is a really fucking good rapper though

2bh that performance didn't convince me to go watch the show but if that qt in the dress gets in more revealing clothing, I'm there
Aww, Leslie, being shoved in the corner. He really pissed Lin off with that royalty talk
>>70771286
>this denial
>>70771239
Oh SHIT
People are paying 5 grand a ticket for this?
>>70771304
>implying you could afford to see Hamilton
lmao
God dammit that performance didn't represent the musical at all
>>70771356
How much is it?
fuck can someone upload the hamilton performance when its done
>>70771253
Have you seen ticket prices for it? Black people can't afford it. And I'm not being a /pol/ poster, just realistically comparing average incomes, etc. But they operate a lottery and claim it's all fair, even though their audiences make Harvard look diverse
>>70771368
Or maybe it represented it too much...
>>70771368
it was for the faithful who already knew the musical inside and out.
I mean they already did Alexander Hamilton at the Grammys...
Oh hey, it's Smee from Peter Pan Live!
>>70771386
800 dollarinos for a shitty seat
>>70771388
as a person who hasn't watched the performance, seen the show, or heard the cast album, it's absolute shit
>>70771300
I'm not watching, are they actually doing only Yorktown? What the fuck why don't they do Wait For It or Non Stop?
The dude presenter looks like Pau Gasol
>>70771345
you won't pay to feed the hype? you fucking bigot

>>70771326
>He really pissed Lin off with that royalty talk
What?
Claire Danes was great in Stardust
>>70771443
those are both the worst tracks in the entire show smdh
>>70769616
This. No others are even close.
>>70771487
im sure itll be up on youtube. you also might try checking a west coast stream?
>>70771443
>Wait For It
Leslie Odom pissed off the producers and Lin so no chance in hell was he getting featured like that.
>>70771386
Hundreds of dollars for a single ticket if you're lucky... over a grand when tickets are more in demand. After the Tony win they'll be more in demand. Demand will probably go down a little bit in July after Lin and more of the original cast leave
>>70771459
Not worth 5 grand.
>>70771525

What the fuck is wrong with you?
