  • wow... Mick was NOT enough of a dick in this performance. and high schoolers need to learn not to try and copy what you hear on the cds... make it your own. be original.

  • John Kander, sitting in our audience, seemed to think Mick was just fine! ;-}

    The director [and me] based Mick's character on feedback/advice that Kander gave us.

    The director also wanted Everybody's Girl to replicate Monk.. on purpose. And, since the HS cannot afford a full-time rehearsal pianist, songs were reheared using CD as accompanyment. That tends to make the student-actors "act" like the original actors. It's a necessary evil!!! I hate it when someone insists that HS-ers be original!

  • Debra Monks performace came off as funny but this one kinda came off as perverted. Might be the age but it didn't work in my opinion. Sorry.

  • Really?? I thought Monk's character was quite the pervert. One of her dialog lines was: {at lumberjack camp} "...I was out in the shed, milking the foreman." Another line was, "Then buy me some cotton candy. I'm in the mood for something pink and sticky."

  • what is your school's connection to Kander & Ebb

    i'm curious as to why they went to lengths to see this performance, and write new lyrics for it

    it was clearly a while ago, cause Ebb died in 2004.....

  • The school's director became friendly with Kander [phone and email], and since Kander is such a nice guy, he helped out the director any way he could, supplying additional score and lyrics and music and and and and...!!! It seems that Steel Pier is very close to John Kander's heart.

  • My company was scheduled to do Steel Pier in San Francisco in 2003 and we also had contacted John Kander through some people I know. As Leo states, Mr. Kander is VERY fond of this show (as I believe he should be) and has helped several productions. I also got help from Glen Kelly who did the orchestrations for Steel Pier and later was Music Director for Broadway's The Producers. Unfortunately our show never opened - our theater was closed by the fire marshal 3 weeks before opening. Sigh.

  • Note in the "about this video"....this was from their 2001 production.

  • or wait nvm i just read yr comment again... o is that why? hahaha

  • hahah "pich" was a typo... and its not the pitch... it just means that you can hear both the original voice and the voice amplified by the mic
