My hangover and all that jazz

Opening yesterday, Chicago at Solaire would be my favorite experience so far. Re-familiarizing myself at the melody of the longest running musical (not to mention the awesome seating placement inside the theater), I can say that the experience is surreal. Cozy resting at the seat, the comfy air-conditioned new Theatre and its fantastic sound system, I am all set for the musical. I could ran out of words as I'm pretty impressed with what I saw last night.

As the curtain rises, you will be excited with the opening music "All That Jazz" conducted on live orchestra. Remembering the movie of the same title, I can think of Catherine Zeta Jones and Renee Zellweger coming up to the stage.

Bianca Marroquin and Terra C. MacLeod plays Roxie and Velma, respectively. The dance was so intense that the guys and gals of the ensembles I think of are boneless as they grace Bob Fosse's steps so gracefully and strong. I don't know how the ensemble still looked fresh throughout the production, but when you see those steps, you'll get tired! The guys are amazing.

Bianca's voice is flirty and she sounded perfectly funny singing the tunes of "Roxie" and more. Terra MacLeod's choreography with the chairs and all is flawless. The cast also have chances to play their parts with the audience. Like how Mama Morton winks and teases, I am attached easily. Mary Sunshine also managed his voice, (the cast is a he) in high pitch. The whole ensembles is power! Even Mr. Cellophane Amos gets the sympathy of the audience with his rendition of the song.

For me, the musical is definitely a must-see. If you loved the movie, you will love this better. It will be playing at Solaire's The Theatre until December 21 only.

The Hunger Games Mockingjay Part 1 movie review

I was in all attention for The Hunger Games Mockingjay Part 1 movie which I saw last Friday. The new chapter in Katniss Everdeen's (Jennifer Lawrence) life and being recruited as the Mockingjay against the Capitol and President Snow got me at the edge of my seat anticipating scene after scene.

Just a summary of the memorable scenes in the movie:

1. Plutarch's rea
2. ction on Katniss negotiating with President Coin and almost not agreeing on the terms.
3. Katniss' video produced by District 13 in recruiting the other districts to revolt against the Capitol. As they shot capturing Katniss' feelings against a burning district, they got the The video was done so awesome and of good quality despite the war setting.
4. The Mockingjay Song. The lyrics and melody resounds to me until to this day whenever I see posts about the movie.
5. President Snow discovering that the soldiers were at the Tribute Center. The evil smirk f*cks the whole plan up.
6. Peeta choking Katniss. The eyes and thin figure scared the hell out of me. The make up and all is well-achieved.

I can't wait for the next movie!

The Hunger Games Mockingjay Part 1 is still playing in theaters and distributed by Pioneer Films. Thank you to Photo Chat for inviting me.
