PETER PAN 1960 BROADCAST REVIEW

Image
Today, I watched the 1960 Broadcast of "Peter Pan" starring, Mary Martin and Cyril Ritchard Overall, It was an excellent production.  First off, the cast:    Mary Martin played the role of Peter Pan. Martin played the role with such enjoyment and charisma. Her voice soared during the ballads "Never Never Land' and "Distant Melody".  She also shined during the numbers "I've Got a Crow" and "Oh, My Mysterious Lady". Her acting skills are delightful and unforgettable. Martin's performance as Peter Pan is one that will never be forgotten because she IS Peter Pan.  Cyril Ritchard played the roles of Mr. Darling and Captain Hook. He is the real comedic relief of this show. Out of all the versions of the story "Peter Pan", This is the one where the character of Hook is portrayed best. He never had a weak moment during the show. His costume is also really great! He has an excellent singing voice and superb acting skills. A
Note: I will also be doing reviews on musical movies so keep an eye out for those. I will also review proshot DVD's (Shrek, Memphis, etc.)

Blue Man Group Review

 On Tuesday October 7, 2014 I saw the national tour of "Blue Man Group" This was an excellent show with an excellent cast. Who knew 3 blue men standing around could be so AMUSING!!!!! When they weren't playing the drums they were standing there being amusing.  The show was like one gigantic party. It was the best "party" I've been to in my life! This is the perfect show for you if you just want to go out and have a blast. The audience participation was the best I have ever experienced. The second you walk into the theatre you know you're in for a real treat.  Despite an incident that occurred before the show, It was still the greatest theatrical experiences I have had so far. If you ever have the chance to see the show do it. I would also love to give props to everyone who worked on this production. Excellent job! I apologize that this review was so short but there really isn't much to say except how great it is. I promise my next review will
