What a voice!

Lord Mayor of #Cork Cllr Kieran McCarthy has hilarious response when confronted by far right agitators: he used the power of #musicalTheatre.

The far right agitators, who have been harassing library staff for months, accosted him on the street recently

The ones behind the harassment have been linked to British #farRight groups who have targeted immigrants including the Irish community in London + other areas

Well, (stage) slap my face and call me Cassie, 'cause this Broadway baby is always gonna pop a hip and break into song.

In my experience, #TheatreKids "run the world" because the performing arts teach #leadership and self-initiative. #Theatre in particular, is primarily about communication, both linguistic and nonverbal (design and body language/movement). What high-level profession wouldn't benefit from those skills?

Went to see #FunHome in the #GateTheatreDublin last night. Great performances and very much worth seeing (albeit very intense in places as you'll know if you've encountered the source material before). I think there are only a few days left in the run, so book now if you're booking!

"#FerryCrossTheMersey" is a song written by #GerryMarsden. It was first recorded by his band #GerryAndThePacemakers and released in late 1964 in the #UK and in 1965 in the United States. It was a hit on both sides of the Atlantic, reaching number six in the United States and number eight in the UK. The song is from the #filmOfTheSameName and was released on its #soundtrackAlbum. In the mid-1990s, a #musicalTheatre production, also titled Ferry Cross the Mersey.

Got the chance to see Passing Strange at Theo Ubique last night. Incredible performance of an incredible piece of work. One of those shows where I wish I could unlock whatever part of my brain that Stew did while writing it. Inspired me to dig a little deeper with my own work.

Honest. Fun. Heartbreaking.

Who knew that Meredith Wilson and Robert Preston of "The Music Man" were the voice of President Kennedy's propaganda on physical fitness?

Fat shaming sounds so peppy here! And damn... the hook is lit.

So glad to have caught Gus Gowland’s show Lifeboats tonight at the King’s Head Theatre. Beautiful material performed by a fantastic cast. There’s just one show left now….

#Massachusetts friends - please support local #Theatre and buy some tix for this ORIGINAL #Rock #Musical about the life Joan of Arc. Showing at the Company Theater in Norwood through August.

I have family involved, so I'm a bit partial ... but this is sounding good and I'm a picky showgoer.

Musical Gangsta

(Verse 1)
Yo, I'm a Musical Gangsta, hear my flow,
Walking through Soho, in the West End glow.
Got love for the modern, but the classics are dope,
From Six to Wicked, Bitch I love every trope.

I'm repping Les Mis, Yo, struggle's so real,
With epic ballads and revolution, you feel?
Then it's Six, dem queens takin' the stage,
History retold, damn, it's a fierce rampage.

Hamilton's obsessions, you know it's sick,
But that Aaron Burr, was a Total dick!
And Mamma Mia, the ABBA sensation,
Feel-good vibes that'll shake the nation.

(Chorus)
I'm a Musical Gangsta, with my West End homies,
Dropping bad-ass lyrics, don't think yo know me!
You know da Soho right this way way,
With my West End lyrics, I'm ready to slay.

(Verse 2)
The Book of Mormon, let me break it down,
Unapologetic humour, got satire's crown.
Wicked bad-bitches defyin' gravity, yo,
Elphaba's green, but she ain't no ho!

I'm livin' my dream, rockin' the West End scene,
Where dreams come true, and talent's supreme.
From the backstreet theatres to the neon lights,
This is where the magic comes, yo, day and night.

(Chorus)

(Bridge)
Musicals be pulsin' through my veins,
I feel the energy, Yo, it's insane!
Getting' discount tickets for a show is tight,
Not paying full price, yo, you know that's right!

(Verse 3)
From Les Mis barricades to Hamilton's duel,
The stage is my canvas, songs are my fuel.
In Mamma Mia, I dance like no one's watchin',
You know it's true cause this bitch ain't stoppin'.

See me strutting through all them Soho's streets,
I'll be singing to the bad-ass West End beats
A Musical Gangsta, that's what I'll be,
Spreading love for the stage for all to see.

(Chorus)
.

(Outro)
This is my anthem, to my homies on stage,
Where dreams, reality and music engage.
In the heart of London's, I'll forever stay,
A Musical Gangsta, yo! Get outa my way!
