Andrew Lloyd Webber
Wed, 18 Aug 2004, 09:04 pmHi there people! I have just been involved in a very successful production of Jesus Christ Superstar, and I would find it very interesting to know what everyone's favourite character or song is from this wonderful musical. However if you aren't familiar with Jesus Christ Superstar, what is your favourite Andrew Lloyd Webber musical?
OK! I'll start off.....My favourite character is Judas and my favourite song is "Gethsemane". Apart from Jesus Christ Superstar, I also like Cats!
Now its your turn!

i have to say i completely agree,
perhaps it is the fact that we go to see a musical such as the lion king with such high expectations that makes it such a dissapointment when we are not transported to the "magical world of disney". i for one saw the west end production... hmm well dissapointed is a word i use only for lack of a better word, yes the costumes were fantastic, the puppetry and sets were amazing and yet after the first sequence they no longer held me in such rapture, admittedly there were some stand out performances but the story didnt work for the stage! maybe, just maybe it would have, had we not had the beautiful and sometimes breath-taking african music disrupted by the garish tunes of elton, (which WORKED in the film!). i definetly wouldnt recommend this show to anyone, what with such wonderful and brillantly staged musicals as Thoroughly Modern Millie just around the corner... only for the kids. (even then only for those enamoured with the movie)
