Even though it is in the German language, I have only heard one English speaking person who has seen it saying anything negative about it (and he was only slightly negative because one production wasn't as good as some of the others). People who don't understand German find it highly entertaining. It was composed by Jim Steinman and directed by Roman Polanski and yet the press in the UK seem to never talk about it (or at least hardly ever - the average man on the street is more likely to have heard of Steve Steinman). The point I am trying to make here is that Jim should be more famous than he is. The fact that he composed the most successful show in German history is just one reason backing that statement up (now that might change if they put a German language "Tanz" on at The Royal Opera House - or Scaramouche suggested The Coliseum). This does not mean that Steve Steinman is not very good at what he does. Do you think he should be in BOOH The Musical? I'm not saying that's a bad idea. What role would he play? I am guessing that he is the right age for Hook. | |
