@TheArlene707 well...I don't think so...you see, in Roxie's audience everything is very odd and strange, also funny. I did this show in Mexico, and it doesn't change anything in the story, because it is only the introduction to the jail... If they do this funny, it is like of you take off the show the song "Me & my baby" and you just expose the argument she is pregnant... there's no real change...
These women are supposed to be lying through their teeth to try and claim their innocence... That is why their speeches are "overdone and overacted." 5 of them are guilty as sin, and have all been fed fake stories by their lawyers in order to get an innocent verdict. The tradgedy is the only innocent one is the one that ends up hanging. The original production was so over the top, to the fact that Razzle Dazzle was actually done as a circus production number
@oliviajohnson12529 Well the play is originally done in a more comedic light than the movie. But it's just the director's opinion on how it should be done i guess? either way they're both good in their own ways but me being a theatre person i prefer the play version better. That and they cut out stuff in the movie that's in the play.
I can't believe anyone thinks this is real - this is a 'joke' performance on purpose, done tongue-firmly-implanted-in-cheek with the revival cast. Even the trumpet got involved with a horse-racing theme at the end.
The orchestra is too fast, the women have forced emotions while telling their stories, and there isn't enough "it" factor. This seems like a very botched preformance of the musical.
I like the way that they kinda seem unbelieveable its like they're practicing their stories for the stand which is essentially what they're doing since they all did do it except for the foreign woman.
@ashabear77 really? i enjoy the way these actresses portray the characters. these women have different personalites within each other. if all of them have that attitude like in the movie, then they are all the same. thers my 2-cents, lol.
@ashabear77 I think that's what they were aiming for. I think they were trying to make it seem like they were talking to a reporter/judge/lawyer or something.
I did not like it at all. Terribily, terribly overdone. The stories, with the exception of the Hungarian one, have some black humour in them but here they decided to make a parody of it. Horrible.
it is a stage show! how else are you supposed to do it? theatre on film always looks overdone. the whole show is supposed to be a parody on vaudeville.
It's the way it to be done. Each if the other 5 were the biggest headline in the jail until the next big story/ murderer has the new headline. the Hungarian is the only one to really be telling the truth THAT SHE DIDN'T DO IT.
The others have their witness stand stories which make them the victim and self defense for their murder.
this is perfect lol...it looks like that after the other girls saw the reaction that the lady doing pop got from her funny interpretation of the lines...they copied to get the same reaction...eaither way it was joy xxx
Bahaha the last one was the best. She was hilarious. But they were all good
