Saw it at the Lyceum on the 22nd with my gf, damn good show
Only 4 more days for the Brazilian show!
I will try post photos of "what they allows us to take"
How was the show ???
Did they have any special merchandise, a CD ?
I'm also curious about the show and hopping they create a CD soon.
It is the same as the English version (from performance, setting and script point of view)? And it is the shorten, or the long edition?
I will post my opinion as soon I arrive at home (its hard type in English in my mobile as it kept changing English words to Portuguese), for a while, enjoy the pics I could take at theatre in my Facebook
Seems they changed the lyrics for "Can you feel the love tonight" here aswell.
There are some clips on youtube, I'm guessing it was all promotional stuff they did before the actual show.
(that's what they did in France aswell)
Maybe Thiago can translate the text given with the clips :p

those clips are bit old, it was recorded six months ago, just showing some lryics of the songs(some even were changed for the final version) it was just a press conference amouncing the show.

Man, it does sound really gorgeous in Portuguese. I'm glad you had the chance to see it, Thiago :)
It must be awesome to see TLKoB performed in your own language, the only way I can do that is by travelling to Madrid :p
Sounds awesome, Thiago. I'm glad you could have this opportunity. :)
I feel somewhat lucky that I can just watch TLKoB performed in English anytime... Maybe someday I'll fly across the pond and watch it in a different language. :p
For who are interested in see the photos we took there (sorry, no fotos of the show itself, its forbidden take pictures of it) i posted them here http://oreileao.com.br/?p=3099
That's a nice looking theater!
:o I would love that umbrella! haha
I just posted the book they give when you go watch the show, basically it shows some info about the show and the cast of characters, for who interested : http://oreileao.com.br/?p=3109 (sorry only in portuguese)
@nathalie: they don´t sell similar things there?
That umbrella is awesome. I have one, but it's not that cool. Maybe it'll show up here soon.
No umbrellas when I was at the Dutch theater back in 2006 and also not last year in London.
I don't normally post anything because i Dont have anything interesting to say, Until now xD
Well today was the very last performance in Birmingham of Lion King UK Tour. After the show i asked one of the staff about meeting any of the cast, they said i could try the stage door but everyone may be in a hurry but im allowed to try. I followed the directions the staff gave me to the stage door and Indeed loads of cast were coming out but was in a hurry, i didnt want to try and stop any of them because i didnt want to feel annoying, i wanted to respect their privacy if they just wanted to go home/get going.
BUT
One guy walked out the door and started talking to a girl that was also waiting but it seemed they already knew each other. After a couple of minutes he looked over to me and said a friendly "Hello", I intoduced myself and then he did the same.
It was Stephen Carlile the main cast of Scar ! 8D.
He was more then offering to hold out his hand to greet me and offered to have my picture taken with him, the girl also lent me her silver pen so he could sign my TLK shirt.
Gets better, he was getting the train and i mentioned i was off to the train station too to catch my train. Just before i was about to say my final good bye and be on my way (going a different route as i didn't want to seem too clingy), he just casually went "Ah you can help me with my suitcase if you want and we can have a chat". inside my head i was like "I would be honoured! xD"
He was mainly the one doing all the questions which i thought was nice as i think he could tell i was getting shy (i was paranoid asking him too many questions) xP. He asked what i thought about his performance and he mentioned about him missing a line but Zazu covered him up so well xD he asked me what i do for a living and how many times i have seen it, all sorts of stuff xD.
But yes, one very memorable night =)

He is very tall, makes me look short xD

I was wondering how long it would take for you to post here ;)
That's a very cool experience Adam, so cool that you got to meet him and hang out, hopefully his suitcase wasn't too heavy :lol:
Oh how cool is that! :D I think it takes a certain kind of very gregarious personality to play the villain on Broadway/in musicals, and this just about proves it in my head. Super neat that you got to hang out with one of the players like buddies walking back to the train!
Beyond cool/extra awesome :D
I know :D
He was just so laid back and casual, if i ever went to see the UK tour again he said feel free to say hello again too ^^.
Just in case someone missed this (which I kind of doubt xD)
