Talk:Blood Brothers (musical)

message: Never seen the play, but now know the ending, thanks to the opening paragraph of this article. Shouldn't spoilers be relegated to the Plot section?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 89.241.218.54 (talk) 14:10, 2 July 2009 (UTC)

thread_title:  Overacting 

message: I've deleted this section, simply because, for lack of a better description, it seems pointless and meaningless.  Only one of them is actually a "meaning" and the less said about "morals" the better.
*Nature Or Nurture
*Superstition And Class 
*Marilyn Monroe
*Dancing
* Secrets (Dramatic Irony)
*"Nature V Nurture", Fair enough, this is a major thematic and philosophic concern of the play.
*"Superstitition and Class" seems a rather random pairing, both factors are certainly in the play, but together?
*"Marilyn Monroe" is used as a metaphor in a song which is then reprised twice. She's not an active concern.
*"Dancing" ... this is used as a metaphor in the song "Marilyn Monroe", but uh... wha?
*"Secrets (Dramatic Irony)", right, there are secrets, and?

replies: text: I agree that the "Themes" section could be improved (or eliminated).  Ideally, I think a paragraph or two should be added to the article discussing the show's sources, themes and impact (perhaps using the RENT (musical) article as an example.  I can try to write this, soon.  Burnley 01:13, 22 March 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Themes 

message: This article needs a lot of work.  The plot summary is too long and loosely written.  It needs to be tightened up, and all the meta stuff should be removed.  Don't tell us about the stagecraft, just relate the story.  I removed some of the repetition from the beginning of the plot summary, but much more needs to be done.  See Porgy and Bess for an example of a well written article about a piece of musical theatre.  Best regards, -- Ssilvers 03:53, 17 April 2007 (UTC)

The latter part looks awful! Honestly, if there's a dispute it should go in this talk section, right? I want to delete it, but I'm afraid of the wrath of whoever wrote it :( Sophiaaa.x (talk) 01:28, 6 January 2008 (UTC)

message: I recently went to see this with my school, with Melanie Chisholm as Mrs. Johnstone. Now, there is no mention of this on this article, while it lists other actors of main parts. I don't know if Melanie was only in Liverpool or not, but her name should be here.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.3.129.69 (talk) 21:41, 18 November 2010 (UTC)

message: Eddie seems to be preferred by this article (39 vs 10 uses) but Edward is the name of the character given in the text (my copy at least). Using the nickname for both Mickey and Eddie is more consistent but the class differences are highlighted by using Edward's formal name.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.44.147.44 (talk) 17:06, 4 March 2018 (UTC)
