Two Year Anniversary

Today is the two year anniversary of Three Panel Musicals. It snuck up on me.
Thank you to everyone for reading!

Most viewed comics:

• Into the Light - Thanks to Jason Robert Brown for sharing this on Twitter.
• Tony Awards 2015 : The Nominees Aren't... - American Psycho, my second favorite new musical this season, was mostly ignored by the Tony's. I'll be posting my thoughts on it soon.
• Tony Awards 2015: The nominees - Everybody loves a winner.
• Ride the Cyclone - An exciting new musical that has toured Canada and visited Chicago.
• Annie Warbucks - The better-than-you'd-think but still-not-good sequel to Annie!

Favorite comics from year one: 

I wanted to draw more. I picked a project that would force me to draw each week. Looking back at early posts they're... pretty rough. But here are some of my favorites.

• Sweeney Todd - I took more time and the artwork is cleaner for it.
• Camelot - I'm gradually learning to pare down my captions. Less is more.
• A Little Night Music - Again Sondheim brings out my best.
• Funny Girl - I really like my Barbra Streisand.
• The Sound of Music - A well known show that allowed me to have some fun.

Tony Awards 2015 : The Nominees Aren't...

It's Tony season! Before I look at the nominees for best musical I wanted to take a quick look at the new musicals that weren't nominated in this category.

Were they robbed or was justice served? Sound off in the comments.

Parade

Alfred Uhry:  When I was a child, when anybody would mention Leo Frank, people of that generation would get up and walk out of the room... Then one time I told the story to Hal Prince, and he said, “My God! That’s the musical theatre piece I’ve been looking to do!”

Parade has an ambitious libretto. It contains pieces of a detective story, a courtroom drama and a romance yet refuses to focus on any one plot strand. By giving every member of the town a chance to weigh in on the court case, even in the scaled down 2007 revisal, Parade presents the mindset of an entire fragmented town that eventually joins together as a mob.

Bridges of Madison County

The Broadway run was short and the reviews were mixed but this show has inspired some very passionate admirers.

Nominated for Best Score.
