I'm a flight attendant dating a set designer so imagine his excitement at me finally getting a Barcelona assignment JUST so he can finally quote this song.

I realize it is pretty off topic but do anybody know a good place to stream newly released tv shows online ?

@bellerain381 7 лет назад

The way he says "Stay a minute" at 3.28 makes me melt! Damn, he is hot and he knows how to play the pitiable face so well!

"JUUUNNNNE!!!!" ".... Apriiil." "...April..."

Always lands, no matter how many times I listen to this song.

@gleelover150 9 лет назад

I just really wish I was April for the first minute

@Shion6seven 8 лет назад

+gleelover150 I know that feeling.

@Jays6926 4 года назад

He can call me June instead of April, and I’d be thankful ;) lol

some great acting in there. Interpreted the script very well

It's all about artistic interpretation. Just because you think it looks wrong, that doesn't make it bad. You can't put a mark of good or bad based on the directors inspiration. If you look at it without a stuffed head, it opens up many doors for all designers to produce beautiful work. The simplistic scenic design works very well for this type of show, and the lighting design complements perfectly.

Maybe my favourite Sondheim song and I adore every single one

The acting in this production is priceless!!!!!!!!! It must be an actor's dream to have material like this to work with.

"not JUST because you're bright..." Raul's face is so funny right then. It always makes me laugh.

3:00 - 3:08 that cello solo might be one of the most beautiful and perfect pieces of music I've ever heard. So suitable and soothing to contrast this sad and almost tragic song.

@niaraselah 3 года назад

It's the "Being Alive" motif with lower note at the end.

@MultiKnight13 10 лет назад

That face when he says April it just seems like he's saying " Oh shit I just messed up big time!"

@Phd12741 16 лет назад

I love the "Dumb, Tacky, Vulgar" that is such a hysterical part.

@turkeypopcorn 13 лет назад

Barbara Walsh, I love you. Best line delivery in the entire show.

@golddustwoman83 16 лет назад

Everyone who wishes they were April from about 0:01 to 1:10 raise their hands....good GOD he's delicious.

I've loved this song since I was a little girl. Thanks for posting!

@jaymiewithaY 15 лет назад

That's the thing about John Doyle. He's a fantastic director. You can tell because all the actors in his shows give fantastic performances. But he does weird things like that. I've just learned to accept it.

@Ankirt 15 лет назад

Elizabeth is so good. I saw her in Xanadu at the la jolla play house she rocked. Raul is a legend

Who here keeps replaying that kiss and envying Elizabeth Stanley hardcore?

@iamatoaster2693 Год назад

Don't be calling me out like that. Play fair. ... Okay, I played the part 19 times before finishing the clip.😂🤣

@carriewhite410 15 лет назад

I hadn't really known everything about the musical when i listened to the soundtrack, and i thought it was like a one night stand thing...but he knew her before this....

@kokagejones678 Год назад

I love this show. Do something. Make a mistake; fix it. Love someone, or you will wish you had.

Agreed! He looks like an adorable puppy who has just been punished! Poor baby indeed!

@passuoutnw 15 лет назад

ok, one of you theatre people help me out. When she picks up the instrument...is that like symbolic of....sex?

@racheldefontes5705 7 лет назад

All of the actors (Except Bobby -- who ends up playing the piano in the final song) in this production played the instruments -- that one was hers. They carry their instruments with them. At the beginning with all the women, you'll see some of them holding flutes and such (Might be hard to see but one of them also sits at the piano after she's done singing to play).

'Goliath!' XD

Personally, I can't stand the Donmar production; it's one of the few performances where virtually every song makes me cringe. I'm sure the people are very good singers, but when they mask their voices with over-the-top, unconvincing, and annoying American accents, it just becomes intolerable to watch. I prefer this version a lot more, though I can understand not liking the on-stage instruments. I just ignore it. I think they sing well and play well, so it doesn't bother me much.

@funboy7979 13 лет назад

Whatever his orientation, I just wish he could manage some suggestion of lust in any direction.

@lilarose3285 8 лет назад

he's bisexual :)

@blikely9 12 лет назад

Actually bisexual, she's got a chance! :)

@VRNProductions 15 лет назад

No, apparently I did not see that. It still doesn't help the fact that it completely ruined their voices and I couldn't listen to them because of it.

@MultiKnight13 10 лет назад

I love this version of the show but in this song it shows that the voices (mostly with the women) don't mix well. They're all too different from each other

@RickvanVeldhuizen 15 лет назад

The Mendes version sucks, IMO, the actors can't sing, the singers can't act, the set design is horrible, the clothing is horrible and it just doesn't do justice to Sondheim's genius. Get los.
