My first review!
I finally got someone to review my musical, Untitled. The review was written by my very good friend, *~Lillianne~* from Virtual Hogwarts. Anyway, here it is:
Andre has written a play, which is 103 minutes long. The play is written in two languages English and Afrikaans. Andre has written all the dialogue, songs and music.
The plot involves a young girl called Christine, who meets a boy in a chatroom, she meets up with him against her friends wishes and finds out that he is a drug dealer who ends up using her for her money, but he gradually falls in love with her. Being on drugs the man (Steven) who calls himself the Phantom has numerous meaningless love affairs and acts recklessly due to being intoxicated by the drugs that he sells, he also owes a lot of money to various people. His true love Christine is happily unaware of Steven’s background, when he proposes marriage to her. She happily accepts until she finds out that he is being unfaithful to her. She runs away from him, tragically unhappy and very afraid, due to learning about his rebellious and dangerous background. He hunts her down and tries to kill her, and inher attempt to get away she shoots him and he dies.The songs that accompanied this play were wonderful, all the words and music were well written and merged together beautifully. Even though the plot to this play is similar to Phantom of the Opera, the songs and music were totally unique. I can imagine myself sitting in theatres and watching/listening to this in the future. I loved the plot and the music was so good, I was dancing and singing along to the words myself, trying to imagine that I was Christine heartfeltingly singing on stage. I feel really honoured and priviliged to have been asked to listen to the songs and read this script. I believe that Andre is a clever and imaginative script/song writer, the songs were so romantic and heartwrenching at times, they express all the emotions required for such an emotionally charged play. Well done Andre 8/10
I have only two little criticisms, the first is that some of the dialogue is in Afrikaans, so not everyone will be able to understand this (but this can be easily changed and there are some spelling mistakes.
But I loved the play and the songs were even better, thank you Andre.
Anyway, thanks a lot, *~Lillianne~* for your time for reading my musical, and I am really glad you liked it. ![]()
