I miss this boradway play so much it was great the music the scenery why it closed remains a mystery to me there just wasn't anything bad to say about it.
I read that it got some bad reviews and the show was closed in the summer of 2007. After watching this, I wonder what's so bad about it? I have the soundtrack and I love the new songs! I wish I could watch the entire thing
I agree; some songs had a little akward wording for the lyrics, but it was still really good and the actors who were in this show get MAJOR props for all of their aerial stunts (I think I'd kill myself just trying to swing from Stage Right to Stage Left, never mind the spins, flips, twists, and other moves, lol!). But they made Kerchak's death very anticlimatic, and had a few other differences from the plot of the movie (like cutting Tantor, which was kind of necessary for the new story).
@narniafreak26 i saw it when i was 10 and it was awesome!!! and i just found the playbill and the guy who plays tarzan is the gay guy in holly's world
The Hamburg Production is much bigger and better- according to the bungee things and Cast! In Germany apes, butterflies and Tarzan are flying over the audience´s head, all over in the audience hall- the air, the circle and the stall are used for actings... I´ve seen it many times...
So, people from te US: Come to Germany- you must see this wonder!
I wished I could have seen this when it was on Broadway in the US I'm glad their in talks of putting it on tour or on the west coast! And I might be going to see the Dutch version this summer so it should be interesting considering I know very little Dutch haha! Thanks sooo much for posting this!!
I went to the dutch version but wish that I could go to the english one to. But I'm going to the english Little Mermaid this year on broadway (love the little mermaid)!
I was shocked as well, that it left. I thought it'd be a great success, & now the Little Mermaid, etc, is coming out. Personally, I would prefer to see Tarzan than that, but I shouldn't judge since it hasn't even come out. I just like Tarzan. =)
how cold it end if enought ppl wnated to go and see it!! either they ran out of money, ore weren't getting enough, or ppl didnt like it enough!! how sad. PHIL COLLINS is a genius singer/songwriter! i really wanted to see tarzan!!
On one last note, I'll just say this. Disney, please, give Tarzan a chance. If necessary, look at the Dutch version for guidance. This works out all the problems that were in the Broadway show, and is also sold out for the next two months. So, obviously this is the way to go, so, please, do it, for your fans' sakes.
If there is ever any hope of Tarzan coming back, we need to do something. Start online petitions, send letters and e-mails to Disney so they know that we want this show back, and we want it back now. Once we make ourselves heard, then there is hope that maybe they will listen.
Just like everyone else, I too am shocked that Tarzan is gone. But there is always hope of a possible return. My mom's boss has a friend who works at Disney, so he finds out everything ahead of time. If he ever tells us about Tarzan possibly returning to Broadway, I'll post it as soon as I do.
the last show was about an hour ago. i cant believe it. if it ever comes back i am soooo seeing it. it appeared to be one of the most amazing shows in nyc. everyone i know who saw it said it was. its unbeliveable.
man i have always wanted to watch this show...i live in Los angeles CA and i never have the time or money to go to NY...now that its closing its really saddened me and i just hate myself and never will forgive myself not to watch this show....IF it ever comes back i will guarantee to get myself to one of the shows...man if only they travel...maybe they wouldnt have lost any profit or go bankrupt or for whatever reason they have to end the show...sigh*....
This was a great musical. The scenery was breath taking- the shipwreck/beach scene especially. But, I just learned that Tarzan is closing. WTF? I was seeing it again in August and it's closing this month!
Phil, you didn't write songs for a Broadway show, you wrote songs for a cartoon that were recycled into a Broadway show that didn't win any Tonys and garnered one nomination for lighting. Now take your Oscar and go back to working on "Buster: the Musical".
i found out yesterday that the last performance was on july 8th. i am soo sad. i never got to see it and i REALLY want to. i am completely jealous of all of you who have seen it already. it looked like an amazing production. i huess ill have to learn dutch and go to holland...=]
I saw this on June 20, 2007 in New Yok, Mahhantan and in the richard rodgers theatre. I sat in the Row D seat 19!it is so so cool. when the gun fires, OMFG! And i got Dylan Riley snyder ans little tarzan that time. He came on our coach bus and i talked to him!
ALSO IF YOU HAVE THE PLAYBILL THEN FLIP TO THE PAGE AFTER THE MIDDLE ONE AND YOU SEE A WOMEN IN A RED DRESS AND SHE IS REVEALING A LITTLE BIT OF PUBLIC HAIR LOL!
I saw this show in April and it was AMAZING!!!! We went and we got to take a picture with Josh Strickland while he was still in his costume. He was soo nice, but you know Alex (Little Tarzan) Rutherford is still my hottie with a body husband.
omg, I am so loving this so far. I wish I could go see it. I think we're using Tarzan for some kind of talent show in the school this year. So I'm happy about that :)
OMG! Tarzan is the best is one of the best broadway musicals, in my opinion. THe casting is great. Josh Strickland is so handsome. i saw the show 2 days ago and now i wan't to see it again. the actions were great from the beginning. i tottaly recomend it.
I just saw Tarzan yesterday and it was breathtaking. The songs and action in there are fantastic and Josh Strickland & Alex Rutherford are very handsome also. ;)
when i went to new york for dance nationals we saw tarzan. and its amazing. i loved it. and so did hte rest of my team. it seriously was amazing. and afterwards we got to mean josh strickland who plays tarzan and he is gorgeous. so if you are in new york i strongly suggest you go see it.
I want to see this SO bad! My friends's voice trainer, Ivan Rutherford's son is in it! He plays young tarzan, and he is so cute! I've only met him a couple of times, but he is so amazing.
I wanted to see this when I go to NY with my choir in April reaaally badly! But the people in my choir 'didn't want to see a dumb Disney show', so they voted to see Hairspray and Drowsy Chaperone.
Not all people on broadway is gay. Like candydog647 said that is sterotyping. There are a lot of straight people on broadway. Just because people like to sing on stage and do what they love to do, doesn't mean that their gay.
This show is amazing!!! Tarzan is soo cute and beautifull, i love him. All you have to see this show, is excelent, sensational, it make me cry of happynes
Tarzan is awesome, i need to see this,my mom told me she got me tickets for my bday im so excited, and Even though Josh is gay he is so fucking hott!!!
I believe this is a comment of a man who is not sure of his own virility. If he is gay or not, it doesn't interfere with the fact that he is beautiffuulll
Saw the show on Broadway and this video is a good example of the great things they do on stage. And I think it's even getting better when it will premiere in the Netherlands april 2007
I miss this boradway play so much it was great the music the scenery why it closed remains a mystery to me there just wasn't anything bad to say about it.
