    Saw MAP in London as the MC last month. For the love of everything good and holy, the producers need to give them the lead when it transfers to Broadway. Absolutely breathtaking performance!!

    I grew up watching Alan Cumming as the Emcee. I was inspired by the role and that performance. When I came out to my Dad as NB he said "Oh, like the Emcee." As an NB person myself, seeing Mx. Park take on this role is a dream come true. A tortured and sad dream given the content of the musical, but a dream nonetheless of NB people taking on intense songs and scenes.

    I'm expected to see Broadway production with Eddie Redmayne as Emcee in a few days, which I am greatly excited about, but I truly hope I'll get to see this performer in that role sometimes too. I just got to know them only because their footages from Olney Theatre Center popped up on my RUclips account, and I am blown away!

  • @THEtomh
    @THEtomh 9 месяцев назад +37

    To tell the truth, the difference between this and the live version that's up on RUclips is so interesting! They're both really good performances, but both offer a completely different take each on the same song. The live version offers more bite, more bitterness. You can hear how he spits out some words. This almost sounds more heartbroken and hopeless in a way. A far cry from the anger of the past, but it still resonates with the lyrics as both ways work for me. The way I view it is almost like losing an argument. You either go out shouting and screaming like "Fine! Whatever! Do what you want! I don't even care anyway!", or you're more defeated with all hope given up like "yeah. Whatever. Do what you want. I don't care anymore." Both are so totally different to each other, but again, it works with the lyrics of the song! Pretty masterful if you ask me.

    Upon his last show at the Kit Kat Club a singular tear ran down his cheek when he said his last line. Saddest thing I’ve ever witnessed on stage.

    I'm only familiar with Mason through what limited Cabaret clips on youtube we have, and yet they've overtaken Alan Cumming as my favorite emcee. I adore Alan, but Mason's is evolved in a way that hits more personally for me. They nail the spectacle, mystery and seduction of the emcee but reveal glimpses of broken person buried alive under the emcee persona. I've only ever seen musicals through the internet, but I'm fully committed to seeing this show should Mason ever reprise the role.

Mason’s interpretation of this iconic character makes them at one moment a fun and cheeky master of ceremonies and another moment a scary and thrilling monster! Mason will truly be an iconic Emcee!

    Hearts grow hard
    On a windy street
    Lips grow cold
    With the rent to meet

    If we touch

    I don't care much
    Go or stay
    I don't care very much
    Either way
    Words sound false
    When your coat's too thin
    Feet don't waltz

    If we touch
    Warning's fair
    I don't care very much

    Oh my God! I have no words. Mason's version of this song is so hauntingly beautiful. It literally took my breath away. A lot of performers have sung this song over the years but ,in my book, they all pale in comparison to Mason's version. I felt this performance to my core. Most people don't know but this song wasn't originally written for The Emcee. It was written for a prostitute. I"m glad they decided to let The Emcee have it.
