    Saw it at the Broadway Theater today. How they staged and manipulated Kong was UN-BE-LIEV-A-BLE, and the choreography to bring him to life is its own production.
    LOVED how I could feel the sound of his roars and ground thumps through my body. The dancing was jazzy and modern, and the visuals and lighting were dramatic and contemporary.
    With a black woman cast in the lead and the Anne character portrayed as someone who is not a damsel in distress and does not need men to save her, this DEFINITELY is not the King Kong of Fay Wray. LOVED IT. It's an absolute must see this season.

    It’s sad that this show never got an album and that it’s closing. I saw it earlier this year from the second row, and I was simply amazed. Couldn’t stop smiling.
    I know some people don’t like this show, and I’m not some normie that only appreciates pop musicals. I am literally obsessed with musicals across all genres and time periods, and yet this is my favorite Broadway I’ve ever seen live. There’s just something so magical about it from start to finish, and Christiani and Eric are both beyond amazing.

    • @logan.weisberg
      @logan.weisberg 3 года назад +1

      Yeah, so it's no longer the best show I've seen live. I saw it a second time and the novelty wore off pretty hard. Still wish we had a cast album though, as the show brings some fond memories.

    I went on my schools history trip. One of the places we went was New York City and we got to see King Kong on Broadway. It’s amazing. The roads are so loud that when I plugged my ears I got still hear everything. I got used to it after awhile. The people who controlled Kong did an awesome job. I was so impressed by everything.

    Lyrics:
    (Ann)
    Another arrow shoots Ann Darrow through the chest
    But every no only brings me closer to “yes”
    New York drop me with a body shot, but I’m not staying down
    I’ll fight like hell, so ring that bell, look who’s comin’ out swingin’ in the open rounds!
    Fresh in the city living hand-to-mouth, it’s the marquis for me or a long way down
    I’ve got me a new name, a new accent, a new backstory and a brand new walk
    I’ve got the stock that’s not gonna drop, I’ll never give up ’til I am the Queen of New York (*Ensemble Echoes*)
    One dress and yeah I guess I’m a mess, but I won’t rest til I am the Queen of New York!
    So watch me as I go, cause no one even knows
    Nobody knows
    I’m gonna be the Queen of New York
    There ain’t no queens on the midwest farm, just nameless faces on fella’s arms
    The story ends when your some man’s wife, I don’t want to bend to fit some man’s life
    I can’t give up til I’m up on stage, cause nobody’s ever gonna put me back in that cage
    So if poverty’s how it’s gotta be, at least I’m not some man’s property
    No one answers for Ann but me!
    (*Ensemble*)
    *Nobody knows she’s the queen! She’s the queen of New York! New York!*
    (Ann)
    I guess this city likes its pretty Damsels in Distress, never gonna rest til I’m Queen of New York! (*Ensemble Echoes*)
    So turn your heart to stone, I’m never going home, I’m taking my throne, I’m gonna be the Queen of New York
    (*Ensemble*)
    *Look at this city goin’ up! Goin’ up, never gonna stop! Never gonna give up, get what you want! What you want! Get On Top!*
    (Ann)
    Queen of New York
    (*Ensemble*)
    *Look at this city goin’ up! Goin’ up, never gonna stop! Never gonna give up, get what you want! What you want! Get On Top! Get on Top!*
    (Ann)
    Queen of New York

    @SpaceTreeStudios 5 лет назад +18

    I'd say it gives me hamilton vibes, but since the show first started its testing phase back in 2012, not sure how much has changed since then, it'd be underselling kong. sounding good so far though.

    • @SpaceTreeStudios
      @SpaceTreeStudios 5 лет назад +2

      I looked it up, there's like 2 songs from 2012 that are still here, and one is an instrumental, so yeah, Hamilton's effect is definitely showing.
