How Taylor Swift really feel about her box office cats

Andrew Lloyd Weber is an exciting character among theater pioneers. There is a whole generation that the incarnate Satan (recognized) is considered a simplified author of the Earworm-I Rhythms that occupies the empty musical space. “Jesus Christ the star”, “Joseph and The Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat” were exempted during the revival of the strange Christian In the late 1960s and early seventies, Weber reached his creative climax with “Evita”. Historically and politically, it is a confused relationship, but Weber and Lyricist Tim Rice raises the audience with one of the expected numbers after another before presenting one of the most amazing numbers (according to the D’C Stime Pati Lupone, difficult to reach) in the history of the type with “Do not cry for Argentina”.

What do you do after a decisive and commercial success like “Evita?” Webber separated ways with RICE and decided the full music based on the TS Eliot’s Poetry collection “Old Possum” is what Broadway needs. It was, incomprehensible, correct. “Cats” was a sensation in Broadway. It was, at some point, the longest operating display in the history of White Way Great Way, a poetic tourist axis, for many, is more vibrant than trips to the Empire State building, the World Trade Center, or the Freedom statue. You really didn’t visit New York City if she left without seeing “cats”. “Sabt Knight Live” Until I did a full drawing Activate this.

When I moved to New York City in 1996 to practice a profession in the theater, the great playwright Milan State, with whom I worked with at Circle Reportory Company, was constantly urging me to hit the TKTS kiosk and see as much as possible. When I told him that I would overcome “cats” (because I listened to the original recording in Broadway and found it shallow outside the only good song for showing, “memory”), shake, respond, “Jeremy, you must see” cats “. You have to see what is doing.” Meanwhile, Taylor Swift was seven years old when I bought a reasonable price ticket for a weekly performance of this music.

I followed the STITT advice and moved to sitting through a slow music, as the actors in the unpleasant smell costumes that destroyed me in the land of wonders. (The winter park was renewed shortly after my visit.) It was a real ordeal. “Cats” was an introduction to the amazing Julie Taymor air conditioning for “The Lion King”, but its overwhelming characteristics cannot cover the narrative and musical palaces. Weber was out of his game in writing songs, to the point that I could not imagine the reason for anyone’s admiration for this show in the first place.

Later, Weber offers are proud of better shoes and more convincing stories (for example “The PHANTOM of The Opera” and “Jounps of Love”), but they are victories from Stagecraft. What makes them unique not translated into the big screen. “Cats” lacks the juice of the melody, so I couldn’t understand why Universal presented forward to adapt a movie for such an inactive music in late 2010. There was no better way to expose the horror in the show than besieging the cinema pioneers in a multi -transmission theater and assaulted them with a super -personal production.

With the average merchant, Tom Hubber, headed by (the director of the “King’s speech” and They endangered the “Danish girl”), “Cats” received the dull adaptation they deserve. Surprisingly, Hopper tightened in some of the greatest actors alive, along with The Godawful James Corden (which we could not stand in the movie) It can be said, the biggest pop star on this planet – surprisingly, Swift did not immediately abandon her sharing with this huge box office bomb.

In January 2020, Taylor Swift got the Golden Globes nomination for her performance for “Beutiful Ghosts”, a new song from Ho HUM that got shoes in “Cats” Hooper to ensure that the movie is at least one of Oscar. When the film was opened for brutal negative reviews and bad box office revenues, it became clear that “Cats” was DOA in all areas as an Oscars.

Swift assumed the role of Flaretti Pomparatrena in “cats”, and her horse, played her role in the maximum. Unfortunately, the fact that it is a cat depicted for all the exciting power; It is annoying because, as the owner of cats, I can’t get off watching an attractive pop star, as everything comes as a human catalog. It is ICKY, just like the rest of the movie around it.

Swift could have been overwhelmed by “in the studio” at this stage (even if she was not writing or already writing music), but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but In an interview with a variety Before the Golden Globe party, she stood beside her work in “cats”. I also told the commercial publication:

“I am happy to be here, and a happy filter, and I had a really wonderful time to work on this strange donkey. I will not decide retrospectively that it was not the best experience. I never met Andrew Lloyd Weber or I didn’t see how he was working, and now he is Badiri. I worked to work with observers and perform performance.” No complaint. “

This is a completely diplomatic response. Andrew Lloyd Weber respected and glowed a talented group of dancers and “artists”, which included the latter Ian Mackelin, Judy Denish, Jennifer Hudson, Idris Elba, and Jacon Dirolo. Yes, it is a corrupt movie that relies on a musician who has long lost its charm, but she responded to a mistake like the hero. Meanwhile, if we can urge someone to repair the book “Sides of Love” for Webber, we may have a masterpiece on our hands.
