*Squeal* \o/
Jun. 11th, 2014 12:32 amJust came back from theatre Mogador, where my sister and I watched 'Beauty and the Beast: the musical'.
And it was great! \o/
The music, the costumes, the decors,... just beautiful. Added to the theatre natural features, it was just perfect. We had a rather good place, at the end of a line in the 'Orchestre' (the ground/scene level, opposed to the 'Corbeille' and the 'Balcon', the top floors/lodges).
The show was rather fun, full of little jokes that only adults can understand -- and man, Lumiere and Gaston got the bulk of it, with all the sexual allusions. XD
Bonus: at the end of the spectacle, the cast revealed there was a special guest star in the public. The one, the only Andreas Deja, the supervising animator of Gaston (and other Disany characters such as Jafar, Scar, Hercules or Lilo)! \o/ =3
He came on stage and was briefly interviewed by the cast manager. He also ended the actor playing Gaston a gift: an original drawing of Gaston holding Ariel the Little Mermaid and showing off his muscles (for apparently, the actor's girlfriend is a big fan of Ariel) =3
Bought the CD of the original Broadway broadcast for my sister as a gift to top the evening.
Also... as we made our way back to my brother's home...
<.<

My sis and I were mistaken for a couple of lesbians. XD
For these people's defense, my sister and I were hooking arms, mostly due to the fact I walk very fast and she didn't want to be left behind.
Funny... though a bit disturbing. It didn't help the girls who mistaken us for a couple were rather vulgar, and that one noticed we looked too much alike to be anything but sisters (and then mistaken us for twins) and started to go about our mom...
*shakes her head*
Anyway, aside of that, the evening was very fun, and I really enjoyed myself. :)
Makes me want to go and see other musicals if I ever get the occasion. ^^
