Jack's Big Music Show (2005–2007)

Jack's big show of fun Seseame Street Style

[26 September 2005]

I just watched this with my 3 year old daughter and could have closed my eyes and seen Grover, Prairie Dawn, Baby Bear and all those lovable characters. A show consisting of 3 puppets, and special guests. They have music videos throughout the show with child friendly performers and other children dancing around. Jack has a club house in his backyard and invites the viewers and his friends to come over for musical fun. They have guests like the Schwartzman Quartet, baby Wolf (from the big bad wolf family), and many others. They discuss different musical instruments and generally engage children through music. I like this show and am convinced that Mary is the same puppeteer who plays Praire Dawn on Sesame Street. Enjoy the show!

The Phantom of the Opera (2004)

Wonderful Adaptation

This being my favorite musical, I was both excited and worried about this film. Will the actors live up to stage version and the performances I have seen? (4 in total = 1 in Phoenix, AZ., 1 in San Francisco, CA. and 2 in New York, NY.) I was definitely pleased. The film version touches on parts of the story you can't get in the stage production, gives a nice twist and gives you a better, more close of view of the actors. Let me be the first to say that Gerard Butler is not only handsome, a great actor, but a wonderful singer! I loved it. I would see it again and I would DEFINITELY recommend it. Don't expect it to be anything but a musical, with an entirely sung script!

Carnivàle (2003–2005)

Finally!

Finally a great show to replace Sex and the City. I was starting to get worried. I know everyone wants to dig into the meaning behind "this, that and everything" in this show, but just sit back, relax and enjoy the ride!
