tragedy the musical otherwise known as Shrek on broadway

ok, so i am all for the family musical, and i am all for reworking things for the stage.... but to me Shrek the Musical makes me throw up in my mouth a little, the first shrek wasn't even very good, it was really the second one that worked well and was funny. it just seems like there are so many obstacles to overcome with this show.... i feel like we are gonna be seeing Avenue Q meets Beauty and the Beast, and it just feels gross.... and why is Christopher Seiber in this, has he no shame anymore...

even the poster looks like vomiting


sad times my friends sad times.

I wanna be where the people are.

so i saw the show last night, and god bless you tube, i can share a small piece of it with you. i loved the entire show. my favorite part by far, was the reprise to part of your world, its the first time Sierra Boggess really lets rip, and shows how talented she really is (and she is really really talented)



this will probably get erased from youtube so enjoy it while it's here. im still crafting an over all review of the show, but i did love it.

the hardest part of falling in love is taking the first step

one day till little mermaid... i am soooo flippin excited, i will let everyone know my opinions in detail on thursday.

Work it out!

ok so this totally works for me. i look at this picture, and i am sooooo excited. the ship and the set, and Ariel all look amazing. When i've read some f the articles, reviewing the show, i really didn't understand what they we're doing. it was very hard to get it, and i don't think there really is an easy way to describe a show like this. But finally getting to see it. it brings a whole new perspective to what they are doing with the mermaids, and the set while being simple, looks awesome. i still can't get over how it looks like she is actually swimming.



I CAN"T WAIT!!!!!!

Little Mermaid

oh my yes! these pictures are kinda amazing!!! i still don't like Ursula, but if she pulls it off vocally, then i'm okay with it...

Poor Unfortunate Soul

Oh Sherie, what have they done to you.... No wonder Emily Skinner left the show, i would have too. While portions of this costume are totally brill. I have to say i'm a bit scared. The tenticals look a bit odd to me, and i can't imagine how that is going to move onstage. I like to blame my dislike on the hair and and make up on the fact that it's a small picture, and it's a bit fuzzy. i'm trying to find more pictures, because it could easily be the angle or what not... but I fear for Sherie. it almost looks to comical. What made Ursula so awesome was she had the ability to go from comical and funny and saucy to evil genius, and sinister. i don't see how she can do that in that costume.... i do love the main fabric that they used though, that is a pretty awesome texture. i honestly am leaving it open to not make a complete judgement till i see it.

Kiss The Girl

This is another production shot from the broadway bound production of "The Little Mermaid ". It's of Ariel (Sierra Boggess) and Eric (Sean Palmer) during "Kiss the Girl". Once again i would justl like to state how nervouse i am about this show, it could either be a Lion King-esque triumph, or a Tarzan like disaster. From the reviews i have read everything sounds good, and i am sure Disney has spared no expense on the production, so it will be lavish. I am most curious about Sherri Rene Scott's portrayal of Ursela, who is my favorite Disney villain, and sings one of my all time favorite Disney songs. I love Sherri Rene Scott. She was my favorite part of Aida, and Dirty Rotten Scoundrels, and she breaks my heart in the last 5 Years. I just don't know if i see her as Ursela, I've been trying to find a picture of her in costume... but so far I've got nothing.

Part of your World

so finally my prayers and pleas have been answered and they released the first publicity shot of Sierra Boggess in costume for the up-coming broadway production of Disney's the Little Mermaid. I will admit when ever people try to re-invent my childhood, i get really really scared. I have heard so many different things about this production, and the visual aspects of it have been kept very quiet. almost no pictures have been released until now. But i am at ease. That is most definatly my childhood heroine personofied. I am seriously sooooo excited November 3rd can't come any faster.
