"Ann Frank" The Musical ????? |
|
Edited on Wed Oct-28-09 01:40 PM by The empressof all
It seems that Musical Theater is now all the rage in Paris with the hot ticket being this version of Ann Frank with tunes.... :wow: http://brycecorbett.blogspot.com/2009/06/anne-frank-musical-fun-for-all-family.htmlOn edit: It came out last year in Spain! The writer says being Jewish under the Nazi's was not very nice. :wow: http://www.guardian.co.uk/stage/2008/feb/23/theatre.spain

2. There are so many examples of that. |

West Side Story is a musical tragedy, in Carousel the main character Billy is dead, Chicago is about a murder trial.

And Fosse's direction was brilliant. I actually heard people gasp when the camera pulled back at the conclusion of "Tomorrow Belongs to Us".
