It's hard to sort out individuals, but eventually Eddie, Tony and James come into focus The guys go off to Vietnam but only Eddie and Tony come back Whether they are a strong enough narrative thread is another thing Yet there are some lovely lyrical touches, provided by Parkinson and curly haired Keith Roberts as Tony, while Ashley Tuttle exudes a plaintive, pensive quality as Judy When they return, both the men and the women have to deal with their personal demons and sorrows, and some of those torments are more interesting than others And don't leave during the curtain calls Down below Tharp and company tell the story of three good buddies from Long Island and the women who love them The dancing is exuberant, the story less so in this ambitious, athletic production, which opened Thursday at Broadway's Richard Rodgers Theatre The band and the charismatic Cavanaugh are perched above the stage on a catwalk That helps "Movin' Out," too There's a lot of strutting and posturing, some of it done in front of a smashing red Mustang convertible Humor, unfortunately, is in short supply And, shades of Michael Jackson, he does an amazing moonwalk, one of the show's few funny moments Check at the box office " For a good portion of the first act, "Movin' Out" feels as if it is an arty, all-dance version of "Grease," with testosterone-fueled young men vying for the attention of flirty high-school babes Elizabeth Parkinson, as Brenda, possesses the vivacity of Gwen Verdon, the legs of Cyd Charisse and the sexiness of Ann Reinking And the lead dancers are never less than first-rate So do the women, the haughty Brenda and the more wholesome Judy It's a rousing reminder of why "Movin' Out" was created in the first place The ensemble manages to survive this silliness with its dignity intact 'Movin' Out' Is Ballet at Heart Oct 25, 7:26 AM EST NEW YORK (AP) â€â€? Whatever they are calling it â€â€? Broadway show, dansical, theater piece, rock homage â€â€? "Movin' Out," Twyla Tharp's stage celebration of the songs of Billy Joel, is, at heart and on toe, a ballet Parkinson invests the character with even more personality than she is given by either Tharp's choreography or Joel's songs The tale takes its cue from a Joel classic, "Scenes from an Italian Restaurant," and builds from there with such standards as "Just the Way You Are" and "Uptown Girl In "Movin' Out," Joel's gritty numbers are intended to tell the story Eddie descends into a world of drugs and scary dance clubs, which, in the show's most bizarre moment, Tharp populates with one extremely tall drag queen and a guy dressed in leather Two consumer notes: Different leads and a different singer perform certain matinees The time is the early 1960s before the Vietnam War "Movin' Out" is at its best in its more joyous, celebratory moments, and Tharp wisely builds the show to a rousing finale, one that has the four leads and ensemble hurling across the stage There's one last anthem â€â€? "New York State of Mind" â€â€? to be delivered Oddly enough, the show "Movin' Out" most resembles in spirit is that other boomer-biased Broadway production, "Mamma Mia!" Part of the success of the ABBA musical is based on the audience's previous knowledge of the songs As the tormented Eddie, John Selya, all blue-collar macho, is terrific, too They sure work as individual songs It's the nostalgia of recognition, cuing theatergoers to respond to what they already know Tharp, who directed and choreographed "Movin' Out," has given the show her customary quirky movements, gussied up with flashy Broadway production values that include a full-fledged rock band and a steely voiced Billy Joel stand-in named Michael Cavanaugh Others, including the "Today" show and "Good Morning America," started their own clubs after Winfrey pulled hers Fans will have plenty of time to read her comeback choice; the follow-up program will not air until the fall Within a week of Winfrey's announcement, 640,000 copies were in print and the book moved up to No But none approach the impact of Oprah's Book Club "The selections will be great books that have stood the test of time," said Winfrey spokeswoman Lisa Halliday "She goes out on the line and says to her viewers, `I love this book, here are the reasons why I love this book, and here's why I want you to read this book "It's the book that brought back the Book Club," Winfrey said Friday in a statement about her upcoming selection Winfrey is expected to make from three to five choices a year Not the new Harry Potter, but Oprah Winfrey's book club The revival of Winfrey's club, coming just three days before the June 21 release of "Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix," should prove more good news for the struggling publishing industry But a spokeswoman said it will be called, as it had been before, Oprah's Book Club The book was released with an initial printing of 100,000 She had suspended her picks in April 2002, later saying she didn't have enough time to keep up monthly selections 1 on the fiction best-seller lists of The Wall Street Journal and The New York Times The book club started in 1996, with Jacquelyn Mitchard's "The Deep End of the Ocean" as Winfrey's first pick Winfrey made 46 picks before announcing her final pick, Toni Morrison's "Sula," in April 2002 Knopf, which recently had novels picked by the "Today" show (Sandra Cisneros' "Caramelo") and "Good Morning America" (Richard Price's "Samaritan") Winfrey had tentatively planned to name her club Traveling With the Classics Oprah Winfrey's Book Club to Return Jun 13, 2:45 PM EST Get ready for the return of a publishing phenomenon Her choices, which most recently included Rohinton Mistry's "A Fine Balance" and Ann-Marie McDonald's "Fall on Your Knees," virtually guarantee hundreds of thousands of sales The talk-show host will announce her long-awaited pick on her show next Wednesday, nearly four months after revealing that she was bringing back her club and focusing on "classic" authors such as William Faulkner and Ernest Hemingway ' That's the difference between her club and other clubs," said Paul Bogaards, executive director of publicity at Alfred A The books likely will be written by both living and dead authors |
