Sunday In The Park With George (2017 revival) review

Sunday In The Park with Geroge was revied in 2016 I believe, but the cast recording came out recently. It stared Jake Gyllenhaal and Annaleigh Ashford as George and Dot/Marie respectively. This was the first time I had heard the full show.

I really like the opening! I really feel like it sets the tone well. I should say that I don't really know this show all that well.

I love Sunday In The Park With George and the way that Annaleigh sings it! Annaleigh's vibrato though!Ok, so that fast section at the end? I love it so much.

No Life: I really like it, not as much as the first two songs, but I do enjoy it. The singers sing it really well!

'Color and Light: wow it's not even over yet and it's already my favorite song so far.Wow, Jake sings really well on this song.

The Gossip song was good omg! I really like The Dog Song as well.

The Day Off: I love this song because it includes the ensemble! Also, I love the harmonies.I think the bit at the end of The Day Off sums up the show really well.

Everybody Loves Louie: in case it wasn't already clear that I love Annaleigh, she slays this song.

Finishing The Hat: the most famous song from this show I would say. Jake is very impressive on this song imparticular.I love Jake's tone and his vibrato on this song!

The amount of emotion in We Do Not Belong Together my goodness.

Beautiful: The song between Geroge and his mother I'm assuming I just love it so much!This song, in particular, has some really nice harmonies.

Sunday: Wow the harmonies and the ensemble on this song though!!!

It's Hot Up Here: it's like you're inside of the model's heads, and I love it so much! Also, bless a song that really features the ensemble!

I loved the little song between Too Hot Up Here and Putting It Together.

Putting It Together: it seems that the ensemble is featured more in the second act, and I love it so much.Jake is so good in the patter section of this song!

Children And Art: I really loved this song! I feel that Annaleigh sang it so well.

Lesson #8: I feel like this is Goerge's real epiphany song, and wow does Jake sing the song well!

Move On: this is the song that I was waiting for, and it did not disappoint!The harmonies on this song, and the way that Jake and Annaleigh sing this song though!

Sunday (Finale) I have the feels and I am emotional.

Final thoughts: 10/10 would listen to this cast recording. I will definitely be keeping it on my iPod. This was such a beautifully written show, and it was executed so well!

Our topic this week is Characters Like Myself. I am going to take a two words that each character has in in my opinion, and discuss how that relates to me as well. 1- Cather Avery from Fangirl Writer- At her core, Cath is a writer, and she loves her stories. I am a writer of both Fan Fiction and original stories like Cath so this was an automatic in for this. Both of us love our work and we tend to through ourselves whole hardheartedly into our work. Sisters- I might have mentioned this on the blog before but I have a younger sister and we’re only roughly 18 months a part. Cath and her twin sister Wren are polar opposites and this is me and my sister. My younger sister is an extrovert and into science. I on the other hand, am an introverted creative bookworm. 2- Miriam Kendrick from C
