The Stage Door blog was very new to me! Firstly, because I am
not educated when it comes to Broadway, the closest I’ve gotten to Broadway is
musicals on DVD or Broadway Avenue if that counts? Secondly, the language
barrier posed a challenge when it came to understanding the textual parts of
the blog. The video segments of the blog made me feel as though I would really
enjoy Broadway. Everything from the acting, production value, stage displays
and music seem as though so much work goes on behind the scenes. It’s crazy to
me that some people devote their whole lives to acting in Broadway plays and I haven’t
even seen one. After looking through the blog and doing some outside research,
I think I should step into Broadway by first watching productions based on
movies I know, such as Legally Blonde
and then go into famous plays such as Cats
and Wicked.
One of the videos I watched was Miss Celie’s Blues, which was incredibly well done! Its from the Broadway
play called The Color Purple, which
is also a movie, so that could be another option for me to watch as a movie
before seeing it live. Also, Michael Buble’s performance of “Have Yourself a
Merry Little Christmas” was impressive. I love Christmas songs, especially when
they are performed by artists that give their own unique twist on the music.
In general I enjoyed viewing the Stage Door blog and
appreciate how it opened my world to Broadway.
