When it comes to plugging your play, everyone in the production chips in their contribution to promoting it. You will realize your importance in promoting it the moment people approach you and ask you what you do. For example, you attend a party or an event and you end up having small talk with the…
For a song that was entitled “Let It Go”, kids just can’t let it go. Sorry if I have to bring this up here but chances are kids (and kids at heart) would still be Googling “Let It Go” for the sheer heck of it. Could it be the worst case of last song syndrome…
Would Emma Stone at least hold a candle to the kind of raw sensuality that Liza Minelli brought to the screen character of Sally Bowles?
