This was actually super fun, I really enjoyed it! It was the story from the movie per se, but it had a lot of similar elements. Would definitely see it again! “Sometimes being pretty, it’s enough” haha, still laughing. Originally posted on The AU Review. — Bring It On was (and still is) one of my favourite …
Continuing with posting my Arts-watching repertoire… ^.^ This review was originally posted on Hello Asia! — Excitement builds from the very moment the orchestra starts playing the overture for the Korean production of 42nd Street. The crowd is already clapping along as the curtain rises ever so slightly from the stage to reveal countless pairs of synchronised tapping …
This was a rather bittersweet musical. I liked it well enough but probably wouldn’t feel a need to see it again. Originally posted on The AU Review. — “Without love, life has no purpose”, says our naïve protagonist- a young woman by the name of Charity.

Bit of a different writing format than usual but THE BIG ONE! The musical of musicals! Les Miserables! And WHAT A PRODUCTION! It was darn near perfect- in my mind lead by the most wonderful of Javert’s (my favourite character in Les Mis) Hayden Tee. Incredible voice, and lovely guy! But everyone was wonderful, and …
I really like this musical, especially the recording with Brian Stokes Mitchell ❤ "The Impossible Dream" is of course one of the Great Songs of Musical Theatre Repertoire, but there are so many other great pieces in this musical too. I was so glad Squabbalogic was able to put this one on so I could finally …
