Favoriting Acid Jazz Hands with Bronwyn Bishop: Playlist from February 21, 2020 Favoriting

Bronwyn Bishop's avatar View Bronwyn Bishop's profile Favoriting

Musical theater from off the beaten path. Obscure and unusual show tunes from within the canon and without, flops, failures, and the newest works from up-and-coming artists—plus tried-and-true hits. Also, occasional appearances from songs that are not show tunes (but only if they go really well with show tunes).

I was going to make a joke about the stream playing Cowboy Copas before your show being good lead in for your show, and then you start with Copa cabana. STRETCH.
Avatar 🎭 Swag For Life Member 7:12pm
Webhamster Henry:

You should check out Bea Lillie doing "I went to a Marvelous Party" (and everything else she sings).
Avatar 🎭 Swag For Life Member 7:13pm
WR:

that was seemless going from Stritch to Coward, seemed the same accompanist and one voice slipped in for the other.
Avatar 🎭 Swag For Life Member 7:17pm
Webhamster Henry:

"It's a Boy's Life" is like that great "No Dames!" bit from HAIL, CAESAR !
Avatar Swag For Life Member 7:24pm
Bronwyn Bishop:

HELLO FRIENDS!!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 7:26pm
Bronwyn Bishop:

@Henry: It is sort of like an early prototpye, but even less subtle as it's from a musical set in a world where gay relationships are the norm, and the protagonists are an explicitly gay couple (in 1975!!)

"Ivor Novello" (Jeremy Northam) makes an appearance in Altman's "Gosford Park".

Saw Groundhogs Day, liked it (and didn't expect to).

Fits nicely following the nuns.

Bronwyn Bishop:

@WR @ 7:13: Thanks!! I was a bit stressed about that transition because the Stritch track cuts off really abruptly so I'm relieved that I pulled it off lol
Avatar 🎭 Swag For Life Member 7:47pm
WR:

doctorjazz, you mean the movie or the musical? I first saw the movie a few months ago.
Avatar 🎭 Swag For Life Member 7:49pm
Webhamster Henry:

Jeez this 1992 Sondheim tribute was very uneven. But it's best for "Broadway Baby" and the stunning "Green Finch and Linnet Bird" by Harolyn Blackwell.
Avatar 🎭 Swag For Life Member 7:50pm
Webhamster Henry:

This was during that period where there were more Sondheim Tributes around than shows.
Avatar 🎭 Swag For Life Member 7:51pm
WR:

and I've just learned a bit about Tim Minchin so I am less leery of the Groundhog Day musical than I was at first.
Avatar 🎭 Swag For Life Member 7:52pm

I saw the movie when it came out, but I was referring to the musical in the post

Bernadette Peters just pops out of that album cover, doesn't she

Tim Minchin is great as a songwriter and a performer - I like his song "The Song for Phil Daoust"

HOW IS IT I JUST LEARNED THAT YOU ARE ON THE AIR, JUST NOT STATION AIR? Also, at a time that I can hear now that I am back in the states.

You usually don't do themes, but a little Harold Rome tribute would be nice.
Avatar 🎭 Swag For Life Member 8:24pm
Cmurtha:

I wish Satan would buy me drinks and call, not to be edgy but, It'd probably add some odd spice to life. How many Faustian Bargains are you allowed per call?
Avatar Swag For Life Member 8:24pm
Bronwyn Bishop:

Hello old comments buddy JakeGould!!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 8:25pm
Bronwyn Bishop:

Cmurtha is back!!!

I had an acquaintance in high school who swore up and down she had summoned Satan. "Satan got all up in my grill," she said.

I am sad to see according to google there is no Gypsy does Gypsy...

What does one do when the devil fronts?

Another Broadway brush with greatness: Me and mom waiting outside the stage door to meet up with Bobby LuPone, Patti's brother, when he was in the original cast of A Chorus Line.
Avatar 🎭 Swag For Life Member 8:36pm
Webhamster Henry:

I saw the Tyne Daly version of Gypsy.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 8:50pm
Bronwyn Bishop:

@Uncle Michael: Did you know him? My friend Susan went to high school with him and has the same story about meeting up with him outside the stage door!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 8:50pm
Bronwyn Bishop:

@Henry: How was it? I've heard wildly polarizing opinions on Ms Daly's performance
Avatar 🎭 Swag For Life Member 8:52pm
Uncle Michael:

My mom knew him because she worked at the Goodman in Chicago, where he'd been in Sam Shepard's Tooth of Crime.
Avatar 🎭 Swag For Life Member 8:53pm
Cmurtha:

Thanks for the show, which I will have to try and catch now since I know it exists!
Avatar 🎭 Swag For Life Member 8:55pm
Webhamster Henry:

@BB I don't remember much about it except "All I Need is the Girl", which actually gave you an idea of how great a simple, straightforward Vaudeville number could be.
Avatar 🎭 Swag For Life Member 8:56pm
Uncle Michael:

Nope...the show after that.
Avatar 🎭 Swag For Life Member 8:56pm
Cmurtha:

I think it starts in march
Avatar 🎭 Swag For Life Member 8:57pm
WR:

Thank you for another fabulous show!
Avatar 🎭 Swag For Life Member 8:59pm

I'm friends with Michael Sansonia, who I think was a musical director of the Orpheum version of Little Shop. My kid was in a local production as one of the Audrey IIs.
