the beautiful regie is empty
Our most recent Regie puzzler was telecast tonight, but La Cieca thinks her cher public will need no more than a sound clip and a review from the production to make the identity of the work plain:
Friedrichstadtpalast meets Christopher Street Day: Alles, was hier nicht glitzert, ist nackte Haut. Otto Pichler hat supersexy Choreografien für die durchtrainierten Körper erfunden, beim Opening ist die Bühne ein einziger Wirbel aus Armen, Beinen, Busen und Waschbrettbäuchen. Dagegen kommt keine aircondition an: Es ist – mit einer der Glanznummern des Musicals gesprochen – einfach viel zu heiß! (Der Tagesspiegel)
And now for something completely different (visually speaking, at least):
A reminder: if you recognize the production, don’t blurt it out!
I say Pelleas too……..
In re American musicals sung auf deutsch – has anyone heard the translation of West Side Story? Apparently there are two German translations and the one I heard was quite good. Didn’t Gruberova play Eliza Doolittle in German?
Boulevard Solitude?
For some reason, this says Simon Boccanegra to me.
Well, I guess I’m more of an opera queen than a show queen since even realizing it was “Too Darn Hot” didn’t clue me in to “Kiss Me Kate” .
Lulu — but that would be too obvious
La Nazi di Figaro?
I’ve seen this production which is excellent btw, and I like it a lot.
A hint: it’s a German opera.
PS. I’m rather surprised that La Cieca didn’t show the pic with Rod in his undies.
