The Musical of Priscilla Queen of the Desert

with one comment

One of the musicals that has been taking the West End by storm is Priscilla Queen of the Desert hollister , so here’s a little more information about it.
Of course you’ll get to hear many of your favorite pop tunes, including Downtown, What’s Love Got To Do With It, I Love The Nightlife, I Will Survive, Pop Muzik, and Girls Just Wanna Have Fun, the exclamation point accentuating colorful performances by the twenty eight pesron cast led by Ben Richards (Tick/Mitzi), Don Gallagher (Bernadette), Oliver Thornton (Felicia/Adam), John Bowe (Bob), Portia Emare (Diva), Emma Lindars (Diva), Charlotte Riby (Diva), and Newley Aucutt (Miss Understanding). Tim Chappel and Lizzy Gardiner’s costuming has been widely praised for its energy and imagination.
You can get your Priscilla tickets, still at great prices, online, although the good seats are well worth the price. The pure opulence of the production deserves to be experienced as extravagantly as possible. While most shows during a recession tend to weigh heavy on the heart and must beg to be looked at, Priscilla is a production meant to uplift and transport. Shows have been sold out and performances reviewed as riveting by The Times, The Evening Standard, Sunday Express, London Lite, and thelondonpaper, among many others.
The Palace Theatre will host the debut of the musical on Broadway on March 20, 2011.
Priscilla, Queen of the Desert – The Musical is an adaptation of the movie The Adventures of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert, a successful 1994 film. It began playing in Australia in 2006 and has seen successful runs in New Zealand as well as London.
The story is about the adventures of Mitzi Del Bra, a drag queen performer, who convinces his performer friends to join him on a tour bus called Priscilla to Alice Springs and their journeys, lessons and laughter on the way. A performance not to be missed, and fully appreciated.

Nietzsche – Do you really want to know him

with 2 comments

Much has been said about Nietzsche and how his philosophy has changed all that was known about the world and human thought, but about all the authors who speak of him, none of them really understood the depth that reached the Nietzschean philosophy, with this Article i want to write simple ideas as time, outside and inside, and will to power. Speaking about time, many people talk about living in the present or living now or how to live in the present moment, actually there is nothing like future or past, precisely because there is only now. When we think in the future or the past, we simply think about them now, so it is impossible to live out of present. Another common doubt about what is out there and what exists within the mind, and what we are born with and what we acquired throughout life, first: there is no outside, all we have seen and which seems out of us is actually within us, the eyes do not see the outside, but pick things that are “thrown” into us, so we can say that there is no world, but worlds, each of us is the center of the world who dies just when we die. Finally I want to say a little about the will to power which Nietzsche talk a lot about. Now that we have seen that there is only life in the present and that does not exist outside, just inside, we wonder hollister sale , what is this thing that exists within every living being? A force that knows no boundaries and seeks to overcome barriers all the time in order to become chief, becoming the leader, seeing all that is below himself, even when speak of kindness and love, all we want is become superior to everything that exists. And as Nietzsche would say, this world is the will to power – and nothing else! And yourselves are also this will to power – and nothing else!
