Re:The Swapping of Disney Musicals - 2007/07/12 08:25
I've actually never seen one live, but just going from what I've heard, The Lion King and Beauty and the Beast sound really good, and considering I LOVE Alan Menken, I can't wait for The Little Mermaid. I really hope it's staged well so that I can feel justified in being such a fan of Disney. Now if only Aladdin or Hunchback could make it to Broadway, then I'd be satisfied. Or maybe Pocahontas.
However, I'm glad Tarzan is closing. I've heard some of the music and didn't really care for it. I don't really like Mary Poppins either (as a whole), but I don't think I could judge the musical version without seeing it live.
Oh, and for the person who said that Disney is for kids - I guess in some aspects, it is, but at age 17 I renewed my old obsession for Disney animated movie musicals, and I'm now 18 and have no plans to stop my obsession soon.  I'm hoping that when my university goes on winter break this December, I'll be able to take my second trip to NYC this year and go see The Little Mermaid.
