I saw it for the third time this week and thought it was still fantastic. But I was wondering, does the show use live musicians or is it a recording of the music that is used? I know there are rules regarding the hiring of musicians and the use of recorded music. But does that just apply to musicals?
Also, how long do people think this will run on Broadway? I was thinking it might have another 6 to 7 years giving it a total run of about ten years. Of course, there are international companies opening up as well; Australia had it before NY I believe. And now it's opening in Japan. But once its run is over and it starts being done by regional theaters and eventually community theaters, what is the likelihood that the show will be compressed into a one parter? The fact that it's done in two parts might be a deterrent to some companies so it may be wise to whittle it down into a three hour one part show. I think that could be done rather easily as there are parts of the story that don't seem crucial (like the number of times they go back in time could be reduced). Has this ever been done with other two part plays like ANGELS IN AMERICA, or COAST OF UTOPIA? |
