Thespis Review: The Drowsy Chaperone
Here is something all too rarely said about Broadway shows any more: The Drowsy Chaperone is laugh-out-loud funny! It seemed like everyone in the theater was having a great time, and there were lots of stops for rolling audience laughter. I was left with the distinct impression that the audiences for this show vary widely, […]
Thespis Review: Jersey Boys
Attending The Jersey Boys at the August Wilson on Tuesday night was an exhilarating, if not enthralling experience. This winner of the 2006 Tony Award for best new musical has been derided as another just another link in the chain of jukebox musicals. Starting with Smokey Joe’s Café in 1995, a great Broadway show, it’s […]
Ann Coulter Clips
Any fan of Ann Coulter will enjoy these video clips. YouTube can be wonderful. Ann Coulter with Matt Lauer on Today discussing her wonderful book:GODLESS. The Best of Ann CoulterAnn Coulter Strikes Back, Ann Coulter on HardBall, Michelle Malkin with her original video: Coultermania. All of these video links are great! And for your weekend […]
We’re not for Blackwell, but…
I’m not supporting Ken Blackwell for Ohio Governor, but ridiculous attacks from Hilary Clinton and Chuck Schumer don’t make it more likley that Strickland will be elected. In fact, these divisive voices will bring out the rural and suburban republican voters likely to stay home at this moment. Clinton and Schumer need to stay out […]
Ghost Light
Ben Magnusun of Kettering, Ohio is currently playing Sweeney Todd on Broadway at The Eugene O’Neill Theater on 49th Street. He is wonderful in this imaginative re-creation of Stephen Sondheim’s masterpiece. You will enjoy reading more about him at Broadway.com. Anyone up for a trip to the city this weekend to see Ben, Patti, Michael […]
Ghost Light : Thespis’ Glow
A Ghost Light: a light left on the stage overnight, or when the stage is not in use for safety. Also to fit with a superstition – to prevent the theatre from ‘going dark’ also known as the closing of a show. Proof that men should be banned from going shirtless! Be certain to look […]
CNN’s Anderson Cooper: Looking for all the good in Hezbollah
I’m in the middle of reading Ann Coulter’s latest best-selling book, GODLESS. It may be her best book yet, and is useful for everyone who gets too busy to follow up on all of the foolish, fabricated stories that the drive-by media generates in the course of two-three months. A review of her book will […]
Two Legendary Shows Coming to Broadway
It looks as if the long awaited Broadway revival of THE WIZ will finally make it to New York in the Spring of 2007. THE WIZ is simply one of the best Broadway musicals written in the last sixty years. It is highly entertaining, has infectuous even contagious music, and is beloved by audiences all […]
DREAMGIRLS: The Movie
I sincerely hope that the Director and the Producers of the upcoming film of DREAMGIRLS did not ruin the great integrated storyline, music, and legacy of house quaking, show-stopping moments produced by this awe-inspiring Broadway show. There is a great deal of publicity available, and everywhere I turn lately, there is a revival of interest […]
