35mm: A Musical Exhibition

Rate this book
Full Length Musical / A picture is worth 1,000 words — what about a song? Can a picture inspire a song or fifteen? In 35mm, each photo creates an unique song, moments frozen in time; a glimmer of a life unfolding, a glimpse of something happening. A stunning new multimedia musical which explores a groundbreaking new concept in musical theatre... This intricately woven collection of stories told through song re-imagines what the modern American musical can be. ( 3m, 2f)

Eminently forgettable songs. Oliver has no talent for lyric or melody.

Here is a full diagnosis of this wonderful play (Even the songs not in the book):

Transition 1: Reprise of Stop Time.
On Monday: A young woman, impatient for love, learns to wait for what she wants.
Caralee: A demonish child terrorizes her babysitter.
The Party Goes with You: A Woman yearns for a new life and new love.
Good Lady: A knight searches for his missing lady love.
Transition 2: Pre-reprise of Twisted Teeth and The Ballad of Sara Berry
Make me Happy: A couple in a love-hate relationship.
The Seraph: A man abandons his life of sin thanks to the intercession of an angel.
Immaculate Deception: Photographers find Christ even in the worst of people and things.
Transition 3: Reprise of Crazytown.
Leave, Luanne: An abused wife is unable to escape her mister.
Mama, Let Me In: An operatic yearning for acceptance.
Why Must We Tell Them Why?: Non-conformism in action.
Twisted Teeth: Twisted vampire love/lust story.
Hemming and Hawing: A man searches for love, but is abandoned and sees the error of his ways.
Transition 4: Reprise of Good Lady.
Cut You a Piece: Sad story of two people in love who are torn apart fro each other.
Transition 5: Stop Time 2nd reprise.
The Ballad of Sara Berry: The story of a girl who would literally kill to be prom queen.
Finale: A medley of many of the songs, but focuses on Stop Time.

On the whole, this is a wonderful musical written by a very talented person and performed by people who do perfect justice to that talent. Give it a listen and you will not regret it!
