    The MUNY has announced (via its website) three of its seven summer shows: Fiddler on the Roof, Miss Saigon and The Producers. The first one gives me a good reason to audition...the second one will be an excuse to bring back Eric Kunze...and the third one--fun as it is--will be censored to death, mark my words. Looking forward to what else we can ( Read more... )

  • What's that? Another movie musical at Xmastime?!?

    papagenopj Dec 27, 2007 01:22

    Gee, Hollywood really loves the musicals more than they did in the 80s and 90s. It seems there's a new one (or two) out every year lately. This year, we were given a double whammy with Hairspray in July and Sweeney Todd this Holiday season. I'm a huge fan of Sweeney Todd as you may well know. On Halloween during my Junior Year of College, I was ( Read more... )

  • The day after...

    papagenopj Oct 19, 2007 18:53

    Today was a much calmer day. Late last night, I had a very insightful philosophical conversation over the whole matter with a close friend. It put a lot of stuff into perspective, and that's what I needed.

    And now...I will spend my Friday night in peace and quiet...or maybe at a loud bar. Who knows?

  • Trailery goodness!

    The Sweeney Todd film trailer has been launched at Yahoo!Movies tonight, and I'm so dang excited! WHEEEEEE! Even though it looks like they've cut back on the music, I may have misjudged this film. We'll have to see this December, as my movie-musical-released-on-a-holiday excitement cycle repeats itself.

    LATE EDIT: The trailer is now on YouTube ( Read more... )

  • Oh, I can't sit down...

    So, I've been looking for apartments over the past few weeks.  I have a fall-back option out in western U-City out near Debra and Jason's place, but you know... don't put all eggs in one basket, etc.  However, there's one very tempting place in Richmond Heights that I really want to scope out.  It's a historic building recently renovated with ( Read more... )

  • Flute musings and other stuff...

    papagenopj Jul 03, 2007 02:00

    Die Zauberflöte had a pretty strong first two performances this past weekend. I'm quite happy with how it has turned out, with the exception of a few qualms (which I've mentioned ad nauseum at post-rehearsal/post-performance get-togethers, so what's the point of reiterating them?). Post-Dispatch classical music critic Sarah Bryan Miller has not yet ( Read more... )

    I love how some of the instruments try to help her get the coloratura back on track...but all in vain.
