Broadway is Expensive. Times Square is a pain to walk through. Intermission isn't enough time to scarf down that $12 Watered-Down-Mojito which you can't bring to your seat. And that jerk in front of you is going to give a standing ovation to a reading of the telephone book. Why bother? We give you each of your (not so)
favorite Broadway shows, ten minutes at a time.

Sometimes you forget that Broadway shows are transferred to places besides England. They translate the production to another language but besides that, keep the show looking exactly the same...

Weird. Thanks to Man In Chair for finding this.

It's not too too weird except for picturing Chenoweth as a blond Asian woman. I love some translations though... I think the Dutch (?) version of Phantom comes out to be "Het Spook!"~ Megan

If the little I know about modern Asian cultures holds true, it's that there is a certain type of pop-culture persona who is the asian woman wearing Blonde hair. If that's true, then it sems that having a blond Asian woman playing Glinda seems to really fit that character...
