Just perfect...
Disapointment
I wanted to like it more than I actually did... But much of the humor totally escaped me and I walked out only mildly impressed.
Amazing worth wacthing. So good. Biased but well made with many good points.
In the words of Cameron Mackintosh they put together the greatest oray of talent possible. Some of my favourites would include David Campbell(Martin Guerre and Miss Saigon). I thought he did a wonderful job and is a really great singer. I also enjoyed Jonathan Pryce no words can describe him. Micheal Ball, Lea Salonga, Philip Quast, Ruthie Henshall, and many more. All these people made it a wonderful show. With all their singing talents put together made it enjoyable to watch. It also made it interesting to watch from a semi short stage perspective. It was overall a wonderful piece to watch and I continue to watch it to enjoy the music of the musicals and voices of the participating actors. Oh yeah one of the best was Adam Searles.

I brought this show last Christmas and have since watched it a number of times. My particular favourite part is the "Cats" section near the end, and I have spent the past few months trying to identify those members of the cast that were also in the "Cats" video. I now know who at least four or five of them are :-) I also liked some other parts of the video as well, such as "Oliver", but the "Cats" section was my favourite.
This is without a doubt the best Musical Theatre concert ever filmed! Johnathan Pryce and Liz Robertson as Higgins and Liza in the My Fair Lady sequence are outstanding! Dame Judi Dench mezmerizes the audience with Send in the clown's, Tom Leherer sings gleefully about "poisoning pidgeons in the park". You also get the outstanding Bernadette Peters and the Sexy and talented Ruthie Henshall.A rare treat is also given when Musical Theare rivals Stephen Sondheim and Andrew Lloyd Weber perform a fun duet roasting Mackintosh.Bravo to both of them for their sportsmanship. True, the special could do without the Phantom and Martin Guarre selections but its does not hamper the enjoyment in the least. I still could have watched an hour or so more of this concert. I just did not want it to end.
Hey Mr. Producer is an awesome collection of musicals done by Cameron MacKintosh. If you love musicals, you'll love this. It is wonderfully done. I enjoyed the selections from Les Miserables, Oliver, CATS, and My Fair Lady.
