Something special for our aria as 'Phantom' comes to town
In January, Andrew Lloyd Webber's mega-hit "Phantom of the Opera" celebrates its 20th anniversary on Broadway, where it is already the longest running show ever. The musical has been touring America for nearly as long. So it's been a challenge for Bill Miller, "Phantom's" national marketing director, to keep the advertising fresh as the darkly romantic musical about a physically and emotionally scarred phantom haunting the Paris Opera House has crisscrossed the nation again and again. And again. In fact the two-month engagement of "Phantom" that opens to the press tonight at the Cadillac Palace marks the fifth time the show has played the Chicago market. So Miller felt it was definitely time to add some new twists to the show's advertising mix beyond the familiar shattered mask image that by now is at least as famous a theatrical marketing icon as "Les Miserables'" forlorn-looking waif.
‘Cats’ will cavort at Civic Center
It is a show that is synonymous with Broadway. And animal lovers. �Cats,� a musical filled with fuzzy felines and show-stopping numbers, will make a stop in Panama City on Wednesday, Nov. 21. The Marina Civic Center will host the one-night-only production of a national tour at 7:30 p.m. Composed by Andrew Lloyd Webber (�Phantom of the Opera,� �Jesus Christ Superstar�) and based on �Old Possum�s Book of Practical Cats� by T.S. Eliot, �Cats� has amassed many awards since its inception in 1981. As Tricia Tanguy notes, the show�s appeal is easy to see. �Cats are very much like you and me,� said Tanguy, the actress who plays Grizabella. �We all have hearts and a soul.� Grizabella is a former glamor cat who has returned to her old stomping grounds, weathered from experiences in the outside world.
