It's Good to Read a Musical Review Now and Then
Grouped by Pat Darnell | Apr 18, 2013 | Bryan TX
‘Kinky Boots,’ the Harvey Fierstein-Cyndi Lauper Musical - NYTimes.com:
" ... “Kinky Boots,” with a book by Harvey Fierstein and directed by Jerry Mitchell, is a reminder that you don’t always have to be a masochist to enjoy being smashed by a steamroller. From the outset, this show comes rushing at you head-on, all but screaming: “Love me! Love me!” It’s a shameless emotional button pusher, presided over — be warned — by that most weary of latter-day Broadway archetypes, a strong and sassy drag queen who dispenses life lessons like an automated fortune cookie. ...

Inspired by the little-seen 2005 movie of the same title, “Kinky Boots” is assembled from plot parts that have shown up all too frequently during the past decades in shows that were also based on films. Like “The Full Monty” (choreographed by Mr. Mitchell) and “Billy Elliot the Musical,” it is set in a hard-times British factory town, where jobs are in jeopardy and spirits need lifting. Like “La Cage aux Folles” and “Priscilla Queen of the Desert,” it presents drag queens as the show’s official spirit lifters.

Liner Notes: "This appearance by Talk Talk was recorded on UK TV in 1982. "Today" was Talk Talk's 3rd single, when they were still in their electropop phase. (This track was produced by Colin Thurston, who also produced Duran Duran's 1st album). Their drummer kicked-ass...reminded me of Keith Moon! A great track, and a great performance!

Anyone in agreement? The stage background paintings are real nice ... I like Easter Island referral. Post hip new era, Mark Hollis, and this is the Popera... [new word?] Synthpop??? Cool.
