Tapping our troubles away...

Week 3 - 429 days to opening night

After watching a couple of versions of the show now ......i'm the same as neil... i know there's a great musical in there but not feeling much excitement after the big production numbers of which there are many.. so i really need to find that 'thing' that is missing....The two i'm most worried about are hit em on the head and big time..... the tap will speak for itself i think... people love tap... but the other two are more tricky.
 
Big time .... fantastic song that the players have done in panto a few times... it involves suitcases.... the question is do you make these a feature or not???  not sure yet.  My main worry with hit em on the head is it tries to do a silent movie within the number and so far from what i've seen this doesnt work... i just switch off about half way thro which is not good!! tho i do have very poor concentration!!I loved the routine that the policemen did in Billy Elliot the musical and thinmk that some elements of that might be good to use..... tho i'm still trying to find that somewhere on you tube.... also off to have look at Jerry's girls a show I love celebrating the music of Jerry Herman...well worth a listen if you dont know it...
