Neo-Conservatives LOVE The Passion of George W. Bush (and ironic quotation marks)

Mon, 30 Aug 2004 09:15:52 -0700

"Leaving the sinking "U.S.S. John Kerry" swiftboat for a spell - er, actually smell, because we see that beginning today, a bunch of stinking, unkempt, unshaven professional bitcher/moaners are dropping in on New York like fleas on a dirty dog.

NYTheatre.com Loves The Passion!

"All the elements here coalesce into a fine production: the director Simon Hammerstein, the choreographer Dontee Kiehn, the rock combo led by Jana Zielonka, and the terrific cast—Craig Baldwin, Charles Browning, Chad Coudriet, Thursday Farrar, Michael Gladis, Jennifer Houseal, Shannon Polly, Jonathan Putterman and Colin Stokes. Kudos to the authors: book and lyrics by John Herin and Adam B. Mathias; music by Alden Terry. They have created an edgy satire with a message using a rock score that supports the material without overwhelming it."

The Passion has gone international! A literal translation of this Dutch blog reveals "The texts are originating from Herin and Mathias with music of eels Terry.

Shannon Polly have the honour the first lady, Barabara play Bush. The control is of Simon Hammerstein."
