IT IS FUNNY ENOUGH S OWN RIGHT THAT ONE ONLY NEEDS TO SET MIC TO THE TEXT TO GET A SLICK AND ENJOYABLE MIL EDY. IN MANY STANC, LEONARD BERNSTE AND HUGH WHEELER DO EXACTLY THAT, QUOTG WHOLE PASSAG STRAIGHT OUT OF THE BOOK. BERNSTE'S MIC--WHICH THE ORCHTRA PERFORMS EXCELLENTLY--PARODI OPERA, BACH, THE NVENTNS OF BROADWAY MILS, AND A LOT BETWEEN. THE WHOLE SATIRIC PASTICHE IS TOPPED OFF WH LYRICS THAT ARE FAHFUL TO THE WRY, IRONIC W OF THE BOOK.ABOUT THE ONLY THG THAT ULD CANDI WOULD BE SLOW PACG. GIVEN ENOUGH TIME TO DWELL ON THE OTHS OF THE WHOLE THG, MANY DIENC MIGHT BEE WEARIED WH THE OBV FOOLISHNS OF DR. PANGLOSS AND PANY. TO GUARD AGAST SUCH A REACTN, DIRECTOR GEE HAML HAS TURNED CANDI TO A THREE-RG CIRC THAT MOV AT THE SPEED OF LIGHT. THE SET SPRAWLS THE WIDTH OF THE THEATER, G THE BALNI OVER THE THEATER ENTRANCE AND A WALKWAY THAT CUTS THROUGH THE 30 OR 40 SEATS THE P. ACTORS APPEAR OM EVERY DOOR THE THEATER, SOMETIM EXG STAGE RIGHT TO APPEAR MOMENTS LATER THE BALNY WH A TOTALLY DIFFERENT STUME. HALFWAY THROUGH THE HOUR AND 45 MUTE SHOW THE DIENCE IS A WHIRL TRYG TO KEEP UP WH ALL THE QUICK CHANG AND LEAPG ABOUT, BUT THEY GET NO TERMISSN TO ALLOW TIME TO SORT ALL OUT.THE HECTIC PACE MANDS ACTORS WHO N KEEP UP WH , AND HERE THE LOEB PRODUCTN IS BLSED. WILLIAM FALK--WHO PLAYS VOLTAIRE, DR. PANGLOSS, THE MALEVOLENT SPANISH GOVERNOR, A SULTAN AND A SAGE--GIV FIVE MASTERFUL PERFORMANC AND DOMAT THE SHOW OM START TO FISH. WH BREATHTAKGLY FAST STUME CHANG, FALK BOUNC BETWEEN CHARACTERS AND NEVER LOS NTROL. EVEN HIS FACE SEEMS TO CHANGE WHEN HE SWCH OM THE KDLY VOLTAIRE TO THE MURRO GOVERNOR. HIS VAR ACCENTS ARE ALL NVCG AND NSISTENT.MANY OF THE ACTORS RRY MULTIPLE ROL, BUT THE BT OF THE SUPPORTG QUICK CHANGE ARTISTS IS UNDOUBTEDLY PARIS BARCLAY AS THE BARON OF THUNR TEN TRONCKE, THE GRAND INQUISOR, THE SLAVE DRIVER AND A SHEIK. EVEN THE B ROL, BARCLAY'S STAGE PRENCE STEALS EVERY SCENE. HIS SUBTLE GTUR AND EXPRSNS TURN HIS CHARACTERS MOR TOURS FORCE.THE MAIN ACTORS WHO REMA THE SAME CHARACTERS THROUGHOUT THE SHOW STGGLE A B TO VELOP NSISTENTLY AMID THE RTOON ZANS OF THE SUPPORTG ROL, BUT FOR THE MOST PART THEY PE VERY WELL. CORNELIA RAVENAL, AS THE EVER-WILLG PAQUETTE, BUBBL GUILELSLY ALONG, CREATG AN ENJOYABLE RITURE. STEPHEN HAY STARTS A B SHAKILY AS MAXILIAN, CANDI'S FOPPISH FOSTER BROTHER, BUT HE BE MORE NVCG WH EACH EPISO UNTIL HE SH A WONRFUL PASSAGE WH THE GOVERNOR WHICH HE GETS SOLD AS A FEMALE SLAVE ONLY TO HAVE HIS NUTS EXPOSED AT THE LAST MUTE. HAY SOMETIM FAILS TO SG LOUDLY ENOUGH, BUT HIS ACTG EVENTUALLY MAK UP FOR THAT.KATHERE KEAN AS CUNEGON, THOUGH SOMEWHAT OVERSHADOWED BY THE PREVAILG LUNACY, GIV A Y AND ENGAGG PERFORMANCE. KEAN HAS A STUNNG VOICE WHICH SHE DISPLAYS A SOLO LLED "GLTER AND BE GAY." HER OPERATIC FIREWORKS BROUGHT A TWO-MUTE OVATN. KEAN'S ACTG IS ALMOST AS GOOD AS HER VOICE, THOUGH SHE TENDS TO OVERDO THE FLUFFY-HEAD CHILDISHNS OF THE GOLD-DIGGG CUNEGON.UNFORTUNEATELY, STEVEN JAB'S CANDI ISN'T EXAGGERATED ENOUGH, AND SEEMS VERY FLAT AGAST THE BACKGROUND PROVID BY THE RT OF THE PRODUCTN. HE SGS VERY WELL, BUT HIS ACTG RELI TOO HEAVILY ON BLOW-DRIED GOOD LOOKS AND GLASSY STAR, EVEN FOR A CHARACTER AS NAIVE AS CANDI. THE FLT MAY BE WH THE DIRECTOR FOR TRYG TOO HARD TO MAKE CANDI REFLECT THE NTRAST BETWEEN DR. PANGLOSS'S WORLD VIEW AND THE WORLD SELF. THE RULT, HOWEVER, IS A BORG CHARACTER SUBSTUTED FOR A SYMPATHETIC ONE. JAB'S PERFORMANCE DON'T HR ONE'S ENJOYMENT OF THE SHOW, JT DON'T ADVANCE THE SHOW AS MUCH AS ULD.THE MOST ENARG SGLE CHARACTER IS CAROL ELLGSON AS CUNEGON'S OLD SERVANT LADY. ELLGSON PLAYS THE OLD LADY AS A YIDDISH GRANDMOTHER, AND SHE GETS MORE AND MORE MPY AS THE SHOW GO ON, RAVG AND WADDLG ABOUT THE STAGE.A CHARACTER WH ONE BUTTOCK AND YIDDISH MANNERISMS WOULD BE HARD-PRSED NOT TO GET LGHS, BUT ELLGSON SERV ALL SHE GETS FOR HER ANIMATED {DISPLAY:BLOCK;MARG:0PX TO;WIDTH:100%;MAX-WIDTH:100%;BACKGROUND:TRANSPARENT;PADDG:10PX 0PX;} {FONT-FAY:'COLABORATE LIGHT','LUCIDA SANS UNI',SANS-SERIF;LOR:#333333;TEXT-ALIGN:CENTER;FONT-SIZE:0.7EM;TEXT-TRANSFORM:UPPERSE;DISPLAY:BLOCK;} {WIDTH:-WEBK-F-NTENT;WIDTH:-MOZ-F-NTENT;WIDTH:F-NTENT;MARG:0PX TO;TEXT-ALIGN:CENTER;}ADVERTISEMENTBEE CANDI IS SO FARCIL, (AND ANY SHOW THAT VOLV ACTORS APE SUS IS BY FN A FARCE), YOU AREN'T LIKELY TO BE EMOTNALLY AFFECTED BY ANY EP WAY.

“ENOUGH OF BEG BASELY TEARFUL”: “GLTER AND BE GAY” AND THE CAMP POLICS OF QUEER RISTANCE

After outlg mp as social crique, I turn to Cunégon's aria “Glter and Be Gay” and trace s path through mp's eways two different s: first, the Uned Stat of the 1950s, a perd marked by McCarthy's wch-hunts, Cold War anxieti, tense homophobia, and the poser's personal stggle to accept his homosexualy, and send, the late 1980s, when sger, songwrer, and AIDS activist Michael Callen (1955–1993) rerd his own mped-up versn of “Glter and Be Gay” for what would bee his last mil project, a posthumo double album entled Legacy (1996).

IT IS FUNNY ENOUGH S OWN RIGHT THAT ONE ONLY NEEDS TO SET MIC TO THE TEXT TO GET A SLICK AND ENJOYABLE MIL EDY. IN MANY STANC, LEONARD BERNSTE AND HUGH WHEELER DO EXACTLY THAT, QUOTG WHOLE PASSAG STRAIGHT OUT OF THE BOOK. BERNSTE'S MIC--WHICH THE ORCHTRA PERFORMS EXCELLENTLY--PARODI OPERA, BACH, THE NVENTNS OF BROADWAY MILS, AND A LOT BETWEEN. THE WHOLE SATIRIC PASTICHE IS TOPPED OFF WH LYRICS THAT ARE FAHFUL TO THE WRY, IRONIC W OF THE BOOK.ABOUT THE ONLY THG THAT ULD CANDI WOULD BE SLOW PACG. GIVEN ENOUGH TIME TO DWELL ON THE OTHS OF THE WHOLE THG, MANY DIENC MIGHT BEE WEARIED WH THE OBV FOOLISHNS OF DR. PANGLOSS AND PANY. TO GUARD AGAST SUCH A REACTN, DIRECTOR GEE HAML HAS TURNED CANDI TO A THREE-RG CIRC THAT MOV AT THE SPEED OF LIGHT. THE SET SPRAWLS THE WIDTH OF THE THEATER, G THE BALNI OVER THE THEATER ENTRANCE AND A WALKWAY THAT CUTS THROUGH THE 30 OR 40 SEATS THE P. ACTORS APPEAR OM EVERY DOOR THE THEATER, SOMETIM EXG STAGE RIGHT TO APPEAR MOMENTS LATER THE BALNY WH A TOTALLY DIFFERENT STUME. HALFWAY THROUGH THE HOUR AND 45 MUTE SHOW THE DIENCE IS A WHIRL TRYG TO KEEP UP WH ALL THE QUICK CHANG AND LEAPG ABOUT, BUT THEY GET NO TERMISSN TO ALLOW TIME TO SORT ALL OUT.THE HECTIC PACE MANDS ACTORS WHO N KEEP UP WH , AND HERE THE LOEB PRODUCTN IS BLSED. WILLIAM FALK--WHO PLAYS VOLTAIRE, DR. PANGLOSS, THE MALEVOLENT SPANISH GOVERNOR, A SULTAN AND A SAGE--GIV FIVE MASTERFUL PERFORMANC AND DOMAT THE SHOW OM START TO FISH. WH BREATHTAKGLY FAST STUME CHANG, FALK BOUNC BETWEEN CHARACTERS AND NEVER LOS NTROL. EVEN HIS FACE SEEMS TO CHANGE WHEN HE SWCH OM THE KDLY VOLTAIRE TO THE MURRO GOVERNOR. HIS VAR ACCENTS ARE ALL NVCG AND NSISTENT.MANY OF THE ACTORS RRY MULTIPLE ROL, BUT THE BT OF THE SUPPORTG QUICK CHANGE ARTISTS IS UNDOUBTEDLY PARIS BARCLAY AS THE BARON OF THUNR TEN TRONCKE, THE GRAND INQUISOR, THE SLAVE DRIVER AND A SHEIK. EVEN THE B ROL, BARCLAY'S STAGE PRENCE STEALS EVERY SCENE. HIS SUBTLE GTUR AND EXPRSNS TURN HIS CHARACTERS MOR TOURS FORCE.THE MAIN ACTORS WHO REMA THE SAME CHARACTERS THROUGHOUT THE SHOW STGGLE A B TO VELOP NSISTENTLY AMID THE RTOON ZANS OF THE SUPPORTG ROL, BUT FOR THE MOST PART THEY PE VERY WELL. CORNELIA RAVENAL, AS THE EVER-WILLG PAQUETTE, BUBBL GUILELSLY ALONG, CREATG AN ENJOYABLE RITURE. STEPHEN HAY STARTS A B SHAKILY AS MAXILIAN, CANDI'S FOPPISH FOSTER BROTHER, BUT HE BE MORE NVCG WH EACH EPISO UNTIL HE SH A WONRFUL PASSAGE WH THE GOVERNOR WHICH HE GETS SOLD AS A FEMALE SLAVE ONLY TO HAVE HIS NUTS EXPOSED AT THE LAST MUTE. HAY SOMETIM FAILS TO SG LOUDLY ENOUGH, BUT HIS ACTG EVENTUALLY MAK UP FOR THAT.KATHERE KEAN AS CUNEGON, THOUGH SOMEWHAT OVERSHADOWED BY THE PREVAILG LUNACY, GIV A Y AND ENGAGG PERFORMANCE. KEAN HAS A STUNNG VOICE WHICH SHE DISPLAYS A SOLO LLED "GLTER AND BE GAY." HER OPERATIC FIREWORKS BROUGHT A TWO-MUTE OVATN. KEAN'S ACTG IS ALMOST AS GOOD AS HER VOICE, THOUGH SHE TENDS TO OVERDO THE FLUFFY-HEAD CHILDISHNS OF THE GOLD-DIGGG CUNEGON.UNFORTUNEATELY, STEVEN JAB'S CANDI ISN'T EXAGGERATED ENOUGH, AND SEEMS VERY FLAT AGAST THE BACKGROUND PROVID BY THE RT OF THE PRODUCTN. HE SGS VERY WELL, BUT HIS ACTG RELI TOO HEAVILY ON BLOW-DRIED GOOD LOOKS AND GLASSY STAR, EVEN FOR A CHARACTER AS NAIVE AS CANDI. THE FLT MAY BE WH THE DIRECTOR FOR TRYG TOO HARD TO MAKE CANDI REFLECT THE NTRAST BETWEEN DR. PANGLOSS'S WORLD VIEW AND THE WORLD SELF. THE RULT, HOWEVER, IS A BORG CHARACTER SUBSTUTED FOR A SYMPATHETIC ONE. JAB'S PERFORMANCE DON'T HR ONE'S ENJOYMENT OF THE SHOW, JT DON'T ADVANCE THE SHOW AS MUCH AS ULD.THE MOST ENARG SGLE CHARACTER IS CAROL ELLGSON AS CUNEGON'S OLD SERVANT LADY. ELLGSON PLAYS THE OLD LADY AS A YIDDISH GRANDMOTHER, AND SHE GETS MORE AND MORE MPY AS THE SHOW GO ON, RAVG AND WADDLG ABOUT THE STAGE.A CHARACTER WH ONE BUTTOCK AND YIDDISH MANNERISMS WOULD BE HARD-PRSED NOT TO GET LGHS, BUT ELLGSON SERV ALL SHE GETS FOR HER ANIMATED {DISPLAY:BLOCK;MARG:0PX TO;WIDTH:100%;MAX-WIDTH:100%;BACKGROUND:TRANSPARENT;PADDG:10PX 0PX;} {FONT-FAY:'COLABORATE LIGHT','LUCIDA SANS UNI',SANS-SERIF;LOR:#333333;TEXT-ALIGN:CENTER;FONT-SIZE:0.7EM;TEXT-TRANSFORM:UPPERSE;DISPLAY:BLOCK;} {WIDTH:-WEBK-F-NTENT;WIDTH:-MOZ-F-NTENT;WIDTH:F-NTENT;MARG:0PX TO;TEXT-ALIGN:CENTER;}ADVERTISEMENTBEE CANDI IS SO FARCIL, (AND ANY SHOW THAT VOLV ACTORS APE SUS IS BY FN A FARCE), YOU AREN'T LIKELY TO BE EMOTNALLY AFFECTED BY ANY EP WAY.
