story.emusical’s creators,Robert Lopez and JeffMarx,were fresh out of college when they craedtheirmusical comedy about graduating from schoolwith high expectations and ending up underpaidand underappreciated.

Avenue Q’s creators faced extra challenges in theiruse of puppets asmajor characters.ey had to findperformerswho could sing,act and skillfullymanipulatelife-sized puppet torsos.en, they had to learn how todirect inanimate characters with relatively immobileexpressions.epuppetswere designed and created byoriginal castmemberRick Lyon of Lyon’s Puppets.

Enjoying its 10th sold-out year on Broadway,Disney’sThe Lion Kingmakes a triumphant returnto the TampaBay area as it continues its United

States National Tour.eBroadway stagemusical has been a big success,

winningmore than 40major awards as well as six 1998Tony®Awards, including BestMusical.Director JulieTaymor became the first woman in Broadway history towin the Tony®Award for Best Director of aMusical.Director Julie Taymor reworked the original narrative

tomake itmore fitting for the stage.“When I started, Ithought themoviewas shallow. I told them Iwasperplexed and concerned therewere no strong adultfemale characters,”Taymor toldTelegraphMagazine inan interview.She feminized the story bymakingNala(Simba’s betrothed) amorewell-rounded character andmakingRafiki (thewitch-doctor) a female.Taymor also changed Simba’s sketchy story.

“Simba has to experience his selfishness and ego andpain,” Taymor said.“He’s a kid of 15 or 16, and he’sdamaged. It’s a fantastic treatment of death andresponsibility, which is what fairy tales and folklorehave always done for children.”Taymor faced the challenge of creatingmasks and

costumes that turn actors into animals, but withoutconstraining their humanity. Taymormade thedecision not to hide the performers with animalsuits or masks, but instead usedAfricanmasksand art to flesh out the characters.Africanmasks are meant to be worn over the headinstead of on the face.With the expertise of puppet expertMichael

Curry, they also used animatronics.emasksare attached to the heads of the performers, and

can bemoved via hidden cable controls.is qualitygives the characters a human facial expression; amaskonly projects a single,fixed attitude.In all, Disney’s The Lion Kingmay be the most

expensive Broadway production in history – morethan $15 million was spent in its creation.When it played TBPAC in 2002, Disney’s The Lion

King drew approximately 130,000 people from 48states, four countries and four continents.

Opera Tampawraps up its 2007-2008 season celebrating 150years of GiacomoPuccini with

Tosca, a glorious and luscious operawith an unexpected storyline.Set inRome in 1800, the story is asthrillingly dramatic as they come.In the story,FloriaTosca,a famous

primadonna,must give herself totreacherous police chief Scarpia to saveher lover fromexecution.But Scarpiadouble-crossesTosca in a shockingending.Pucciniwas determinedthat the actionon the stage beaccurate to historical reality,and subsequentlyTosca isthe only opera that canbetied to a specific date, timeandplace.

Tosca is based on a playby French dramatistVictorienSardou entitled La Tosca. Puccini hadseen a performance of the play LaTosca around 1889 and instantlybecame interested in the story.Duringthe time,however,he was writingManon Lescaut,which first broughthim acclaim as an operatic composer.Puccini’s interest inLa Toscawas

reignited in 1896when librettist LuigiIllica,withwhomhe’d justcollaboratedwith inLa Bohème,beganworking on a libretto forLa Tosca forrival composerAlberto Franchetti.Puccini’s publisher obtained theLaTosca story rights for Puccini byconvincing Franchetti that it wasn’tappropriate for his talents.Puccini accommodated the plot to

the ordinary events that would havebeen realistic 100 years beforeTosca

actually premiered in 1900.Anexact definition of thehistorical timewasnecessary to concentrateattention on the personaldramas of the characters.Every reference to thehistoric figures,places and

events is exact.Each scene inTosca takesplace at

locations that still exist inRome today,andPuccini traveled toRomebecausehewanted to listen to the sounds andpitches of theRomanchurchessurroundingCastel Sant’Angelo.Also,he sought clerical advicewhenresearching liturgical practices for the

“TeDeum”sceneof thefirst act.Puccini even insisted that the costumesbebasedon researchof historicaldocumentation.Moreover,during thetimeToscawas set,Romewas actuallyoccupiedby anallied forceofNeapolitans,Austrians,Russians,TurksandEnglish all atwarwithFrance.ActOne of Tosca reflects the

moment when,while Napoleonwas inEgypt in 1799, anAustrian-Russianarmy defeated the French republics inItaly.When the Sacristan announcesthe news of apparent victory overNapoleon, the act ends with a“TeDeum”to celebrate the triumph.Aer nearly five years in the

making,Tosca premiered on Jan.14,1900 in the Teatro Costanzi in Rome.e premiere of Toscawas a success:21 calls and five encores were received.In comparing La Bohéme toTosca,Puccini said,“InBohéme, the villainwas fate…and the characters had toaccept itmoving toward anunavoidable ending. InTosca bothheroes and villains are humanswhostruggle on stage, and you can expecta coup de théâtre at anymoment.”
