Steven Spielberg’s adaptation of the 1957 Broadway musical, ‘West Side Story’, has received stellar reviews thus far.
There’s a new musical about Princess Diana and Prince Charles with reviews that are far from glowing.
‘Breakfast With Mugabe’ is a one-act play by British playwright Fraser Grace, and it’s currently on show off-Broadway at the Lion Theatre in New York.
Fresh off the multi-million dollar catastrophic failure that was Spider-Man: Turn Off The Dark, comes news that a musical version of Robert Zemeckis’ 1985 classic time travel trilogy, Back To The Future, might be in the works.
Seems like $65 million and a soundtrack supplied by U2 doesn’t buy you good reviews. Although the show only opens on the 15th of March, most major critics have weighed in on the long awaited Spider-Man musical, and basically it’s complete crap.
I don’t know how to feel about this. I loved Fight Club the way you love an eccentric uncle; it was weird and it stank of smoke and made people feel uncomfortable, but it was awesome. The fact that it’s director, David Fincher wants to revisit it is great; the whole ‘musical’ angle is where I start panicking.
