      It's similar to what Fosse did in "the little prince"

    Marc Calamia the dancer at the beginning is the epitome of sexy! I'm mean the control combined with the grace dear lord! In a show full of the best dancers on Broadway he was a stand out.

    I remember, sooo well, this dance from the commercial, when Pippin opened the 1st time. Was Ben Vereen, Anne Reinking and another dancer. I think the commercial said, 'Now, one minute from the Best Musical, Pippin'…and they gave us this. Was to me, amazing. Was 1973 and I was only a few years old but watched with fascination and begged mom to take me, and she did! Began a one affair that to this day, has not dissipated, neither with Fosse nor with Musical Theatre. Love it. I think Vereen does a damn good job in 'Fosse'….30 years post his making it truly, on Broadway, especially given his health and other issues he has battled through the years. I also saw Fosse when it was on Broadway about 13 yrs ago and it was wonderful, though not with Vereen. Now, I wait to see Pippin in April. From what I've seen, I think I will love it! Love live theatre, even though it cost 8x more now than it did when I was a kid. Worth it.

      It wasn’t Ann Reinking. It was Ben Vereen, Candy Brown and Pam Sousa.

    I sure do wish we someone recorded the original 1972 show for this generations viewing pleasure, seeing the show exactly how Fosse himself did it. I hope the '81 tape is closer to the original than I think.

    "Fosse" was a revue of songs/dances from many of Fosse's shows. The 1972 refers to the date of the original show, "Pippin", not this performance. This was filmed in about 2002.

    Unfortunately, severe arthritis all over his body sidelined Mr. Vereen before this tape was made. He himself said in a television interview that he worked his body too hard. He continued onstage and screen as an actor, no longer a dancer.

      It didn't help that he was hit by a car and spent a good deal of time at Kessler Rehab for physical therapy. Saw him with Anne Reinking and it was the best Broadway musical I ever saw....and I saw lot of them.

    • @OreadNYC
      @OreadNYC 4 года назад +2

      It's all considered part of the same song -- "Glory" from Pippin. I think you really need to see the entire sequence in order for this part to make sense -- the song has been abbreviated considerably in order to focus on the choreography by Fosse. The song points out the absurdity of trying to persuade people that war is something exciting and wonderful when it isn't. The sequence in full includes (among other things) Pippin coming out on stage with blood on his hand and the "thousand yard stare" often associated with combat soldiers. Oh, and let's not forget the body parts being thrown onto the stage from the wings...!
      The irony of "Pippin" is that it positions itself as a musical comedy -- a couple of the characters even break the "fourth wall" to point this out -- but the comedy is actually quite dark, and "Glory" is one of the darkest parts of the show before you get to the finale.

      I thought Act Three was in reference to the show Fosse, not Pippin. This is from a revue of Fosse's choreography and shows, not the actual show itself
