Hope you all had a Merry Christmas, I thought about you and even told you in my last video! (I'll add it at the very end of this article) This year, no crazy New Year’s Eve party, we are all in the same boat, no matter where we are in the world, so I decided to share with you my favourite musicals, to have something to do… Yes, after the Disney Princesses and Ballet, this is another of my passions. By the way, I've already talked a bit about it last year: Happy New Year 2020.
Let’s be precise, I’m talking about the musicals I’ve watched in theatres. I’d like to take advantage of this article, to pay tribute to all the entertainment people who unfortunately were unable to produce their art this year, and many of whom found themselves in precarious and difficult situations. Making people dream is a wonderful talent. Let’s be grateful for all these artists and technicians, and for their incredible magic! What's the musical that comes to your mind spontaneously? Maybe even your favourite, you can reply in the comments below 😉 I start here with classics, some of which I love the cinema versions, and relevant during the festive season:
Another musical from composers Richard Rodgers & Oscar Hammerstein.
I obviously give you a legendary passage: Here, musicals have been adapted long after cinema. The first was premiered in 1951 with the incredible music of George & Ira Gershwin!! Then, in theatre from 2015.
Video to watch absolutely!!
You know I love her, I wrote about her in my Article Thank You. Not easy to create the magic of this character without special effects, and yet nothing is impossible for Mary Poppins, including flying above the audience... I still have goose bumps! Two other musicals that are dear to my heart and I saw in the fabulous Théâtre Mogador in Paris:
A musical I found great & extremely funny: The Addams Family. I'm a fan and for 1h30 I really thought I was in Morticia and Gomez's house, a bit more time and I invited myself to dinner, I think I had a thing for Cousin Itt ...
This musical was created in 2005 and adapted for the cinema in 2012, it uses the iconic songs from the 80s, you just sing and dance all along ... And then so many others, all so extraordinary. Well, I admit that depending on the country, some casts are better than others, but the magic is always there. There’s something intimate and wonderful about theatre you can’t have in cinema. Almost as if we knew the actors: Cabaret, Grease, West Side Story, Wicked, A Chorus line, Dirty dancing, Jersey Boys, Spiderman, Billy Elliot… There are still a lot of musicals I’d like to see and fill my basket of dreams 😊 Maybe one day My Solo Wedding in Santorini will be told in music!! And it's not strictly a musical, but the Rockettes performance at the Radio City Hall in New York is a must-see once in a lifetime! Reread: Christmas in New York Rockefeller Center If you are bored during these holidays, you can always re-read my previous articles, full of fun & magic: I received pictures of beautiful Xmas trees again this week, thank you all! As for me, on New Year's Eve, I’ll spend it with my parents, in my pyjamas, eating foie gras, oysters and cakes. Very good program in perspective: D At the end of the article, I put more videos + the musical I absolutely want to see, hopefully in 2021!!! Of course: Frozen! Chills guaranteed!! See you next year, happy New Year's Eve! Remember to be happy, you can do it!! Love & Joy, L.
