ANNIE WARBUCKS

music by Charles Strouse
lyrics by Martin Charnin
book by Thomas Meehan
directed by Charnin

The day after seeing ANGELS, I saw this sequel to ANNIE, which is
currently on a multi-city tour for some fine tuning en route to
Broadway.  This show has already been discussed to some extent
(including a review by Tom Murray) so I'll try to keep my comments
brief.  AW is a complete overhaul of ANNIE II, which flopped out of
town on its way to Broadway a couple of years ago.  With this
production I think many of the elements are in place to make it a
substantial success with some canny retinkering.  I've never seen a
stage version of ANNIE, and only have a dim memory of the movie, so I
can't compare the sequel to the original.  Judging from accounts and
reviews of ANNIE II, the creators' smartest move has been to inject
some "heart" into ANNIE WARBUCKS by introducing a loving black family
that takes in a runaway Annie at the start of Act 2.  They provide a
warmth and emotional gravity that is missing in the rest of the show,
which sort of chugs along on Auto-Plot.  The story involves the search
for a wife for Daddy Warbucks in order to allow him to legally adopt
Annie, and the attempts by the show's villan to match him up with a
murderous gold-digger.

Although the music is pleasant in places, there is no successor to
"Tomorrow", as of yet, but Strouse comes close with "Love", sung at
the beginning of Act 2 by the black mother to Annie.  Even though the
pop-R&B sound of the song (at odds with the rest of the show's musical
style) suggests that the character has been parachuted in from
DREAMGIRLS, it's nonetheless my favorite.  The song requires a hefty,
powerful voice, so when it gets gets reprised by Annie, it sounds
rather pallid and tinny.

I think that the element that requires the most work (besides a really
dreary opening number) is the book.  The seams where the black family
has been stitched into the show are still pretty visible: the family
appears out of thin air at the beginning of Act 2, and after serving
their function early on, all but disappear.  The show could use more
laughs and a more hissable or comic villain (the character of the
commissioner who initiates the frantic search for a wife practially
cries out for a showstopping number).  I would think that the kids who
drag their parents to see AW have come to see an adorable moppet
conquering all with her spunk, charm, and brass lungs.  As the second
act now stands, Annie is pretty remote from the action, with the major
plot developments going on without her.

I was glad that I had purchased the cheapest seats available (rear
balcony), since the performance I attended was sparsely attended (the
2700 seat Pantages Theater was about 1/3 full) and I was able to "move
up" to the 7th row of the orchestra.  BTW, the sound was pretty
atrocious; all the speakers were arranged in 2 towers on the stage,
rock concert style, and quite deafening.

Well, just about every number in "Joseph" is a take off on another
musical style.  Pharoh is a take off on Elvis, so he sings like him
(and looks and dances like him).  "One More Angel" is a Western song
(the brothers look and dance like cowboys).  "Potiphar" does a soft
shoe, although Mrs. P. has sort of a raunchy strip tease sound.  In
"Canaan Days" the style on which they're doing a take-off is French.
Although I don't know enough to be more specific than that.  Think of
Monty Python's "Holy Grail":

Arthur:    Well, can we come up and have a look?

Frenchman: No!

Arthur:    Why not?

Frenchman: Because I'm French!!  Why do you think I have this
           outrageous accent you silly king?!?

Bedevere:  What are you doing in England?

Frenchman: Mind your own business!

All of "Joseph" is just extreme silliness.  Don't put too much
thought into it.    :-) :-) It's just ALLW's bad taste. :-) :-)

Don't stay at the Milford Plaza! It is basically a tourist trap/dump.
I reccommend the Marriot Marquis (at least visit the atrium lobby), the 
Hotel Macklowe, or the Holiday Inn Crowne Plaza. These are all fairly 
expensive, but since you want to see *all* those shows, you must not
be on a tight budget.

Also, G & D is sold out for a long, long time. Falsettos, Will Rogers, and
Jelly's Last Jam should be availiable. (I think Falsettos is at TKTS)
Can't help with the plays. 

Enjoy your trip!

Don't you agree that correcting that one word weakens the metaphorical 
argument?  The understating is still there, but the indirectness isn't.
And indirectness was the premise of the original trivia search, wasn't it?

And you're right, it doesn't end on a C-major chord but rather an F-major 
chord. :-)


Oh, and somebody asked about the _Sound of Music_ song where they finally 
admit they love each other.  It's called "An Ordinary Couple."  It was cut 
from the film and substituted with "Something Good.  I don't know the 
words to "Ordinary Couple," but "Something Good" is too direct for this 
trivia exercise.

I am asking around the price I paid for the tickets (which included service

you want to check the price with Ticketmaster.  Remember, this is a one time

Equally distressing to me was the elimination of "how beautifully blue
the sky" from act I.  Also, it should be mentioned that the beginning
of the duet "stay, Frederick, stay" was eliminated, and, unless my memory 
fails me, Ruth's "Hear one word, I do implore you" bit.  The largest addition,
I seem to recall, was the protracted fight scene between the pirates and
the police (AKA Variations on "With Cat-Like Tread.)  The overture also
was tampered with.  FLAMEPROOFING:  This is all from memory, but I've
seen the movie enough times that I'm pretty sure it's all accurate.

Also, why has nobody mentioned Angela Lansbury(sp?) (Ruth)'s contribution?
I thought she did a much better job than Linda Rondstadt (she could sing,
for one thing.) (Flame away! :) )
