Live From Broadway @ CC Woluwe-St-Pierre

The musical, the direct heir of the operetta who knew her main development in the XIXth century, notably in Autriche-Hongrie with Strauss and Lehár or in France with Offenbach, and finally in the United Kingdom with Gilbert and Sullivan, the kind became widely synonymic of Anglo-Saxon culture. This was made possible thanks to the vitality of the American creators, and the braodcasting by means of the cinema. The Anglo-Saxon musicals and the French productions do not play on same scales of time: in the United Kingdom and in the United States, a musical is successful if it stays during several years, in Belgium a production which stays in the poster some weeks is a big success today. Live from Broadway, a Belgian production, mixing the dance and the music, will make for you revuivre the best of the New York musicals. You will so have the pleasure to relive the best moments of Chicago, Cabaret, West Side Story, Show Boat, or still Jekyll and Hyde...
