I was in the audience yesterday and I wasn't sure what happened. Was Stephen Costello replaced on the Third Act? I think I heard him crack in the Second Act? And who replaced him? Thank you
I loved Boy George and his culture club band in the 80s Loved his style and he is still unique. Unfortunately his singing is well passed his sell by date but hey George your still somerhing special
The Observer wrote: "After his first Met Pinkerton, a grinning Tetelman ignored the plan and swiftly strode to the footlights well ahead of the rest of the cast, constructively making it all about him. He even outdid fellow shameless tenor showboat vittorio grigolo by eagerly gesturing to the audience to award him more applause."
Although Tetelman's voice is great, his behaviour at this curtain call is typical psychopath as he is described by many. He does just show off himself, all about himself. Sickening
I, too, was there (came up from DC) when it was being shown to people at the theaters .Cannot even find the words . I was blown away and didn’t stop crying until halfway to my hotel !
I enjoyed this on HD at the Theater in Stroudsburg ,Pa. I'm an amateur enthusiast so my negative comments are few. This was good theater for our modern time . I'd see it again.
Nadine Sierra’s is one of this generation’s finest young sopranos and seems to light up the stage whenever she is singing. Sierra’s coloratura is effortless and her voice has a lovely fluidity. Opera Magazine Readers’ 2023 Award was presented to American soprano Nadine Sierra, in the only award of the evening voted for by the public. American soprano @nadine.sierra becomes the new ambassador of the brand for the Opera and classical music industry.
I went to this performance. Great night at the Met. Asmik Grigorian and Jonathan Tetelman (he's a lot taller and handsomer than I expected) were wonderful. Anthony Minghella's production still holds up after all these years. The puppet of "Dolore" is still heartbreaking holding the little American flag.
I sometimes identify with Cio Cio San but would not go to the same extreme. Mr. Pinkerton, not my favorite.🥲. Un Bel Di, what a piece Puccini left us! Powerful, beautiful in its dramatic sadness.
I discovered the musical "by accident", in July '23 when I was in London for Bruce Springsteen's two concerts. I know London very well, so I was looking for something to do in the afternoon before the show in Hyde Park. I was thunderstruck, literally. I sang, danced, cried, and laughed like I haven't in years. and I'm almost 60 years old, 40 of which I spent traveling the world to see Bruce. I've seen the musicaln at least once a month since then. I live in Milan, get my ticket as soon as I have some time, leave by fly at 10 a.m. and arrive at 12 noon in London, headed to the Piccadilly Theatre for the 2:30 p.m. show and then at 8 p.m. fly back home. and or I will as long as it's on in London. see it, experience it, love it. it's just amazing!!! All the best, Alessandro
Of Gods sake. How can you say that from just seeing the end of a show. Plus you don’t know how energetic the character is supposed to be. Also, the character is quite portly in the movie. I think he sounds fantastic.
CALM DOWN! people!! I DIDN'T SAY "he had NO energy"!! I AM a FAN of Boy George OF BOY GEORGE, and YES @jortaga66, Boy George has ALWAYS had his own energy! I was merely trying to come up with a cause for the comment made PRIOR TO MINE! Maybe, READ BEFORE you comment!! "😆🤣🤣"
Thx for posting the fabulous ending to the show, I took my wife to see the show 5 days aho on valentines day in London we had a great time we both said we want to see it again I hope do.
