Seriously though I wonder what it DOES mean. For goodness sake the show is set aboard "the largest moving object in the world" so its essence doesn't seem to call for pared down. And also, it's an Encores concert so they don't have to make any excuses for not having a massive production. And since they emphasize musicians and orchestra one assume THAT is not what is going to be pared down. Truly mystifying statement. Also the link says "pairing the show down" which is not the correct word. It's "paring the show down". So maybe they just have no idea what they are talking about! (said with humor)
In other news I had heard rumblings of a Broadway revivial of Titianic and even some unofficial casting, shortly before covid. I wonder if that is off the table, or somehow now affiliated with the Encores production. |
