  • Beetlejuice the Musical
    Beetlejuice the Musical Death is a part of life, and (mostly) for everyone except the Jumper, people experience it permanently at some point- Ooh, what’s this? Ha! Begging your pardon! Sorry to barge in! Yeah, I don’t care for all that bullshit, so, Jumper, do you wanna finally die? I mean if you want to be boring, I guess you could be a breather, but death is a whole lot more fun than that. If you’re going to be coming around here for ten years, you should probably take this to make it more interesting! +1000 CP Age and Gender Who cares! I mean honestly, I don’t care what you are! Pick any age or gender, hell pick even any sexual orientation or race, and maybe even go crazy choosing a religion. It’s your choice pal! Location and Time You start at the funeral of one Emily Deetz, with a grieving daughter who feels invisible and a daddy in denial. You may or may not be invited, but hey, who cares! Yes, this means that you can prevent the Maitlands’ deaths (who cares about their character development). Origins Are you a breather or a cool dude? Any Origin may be a Drop-In. Weird Adult (Breather) You’re a functioning adult, at least somewhat. You probably don’t believe in all that hocus pocus about ghosts, but you might have a guru named Otho. Namaste, you freakin’ poser. Gothy Teen (Breather) You may or may not have recently lost a parent, but you certainly obsess over death a lot.

  • Danny Elfman: Batman Returns Birth of a Penguin Part 1, Birth of a Penguin Part 2, Batman Vs the Circus, the Rise and Fall from Grace (For Component 3: Appraising)
    Danny Elfman: Batman Returns Birth of a Penguin Part 1, Birth of a Penguin Part 2, Batman vs the Circus, The Rise and Fall from Grace (For component 3: Appraising) Background information and performance circumstances The composer Danny Elfman (b. 1953) is a self-taught composer and is unusual because of his parallel career as a rock musician with the band Oingo Boingo. He grew up in Los Angeles and is the youngest son of two teachers. While at school, Elfman wanted to be a filmmaker. ‘I always thought that some way or other I’d end up in film, but somehow I ended up in music.’ Tim Burton and Elfman had a close working relationship and collaborated on a number of films including Beetlejuice (1988), The Nightmare Before Christmas (1993) and Planet of the Apes (2001). Of all the films they have made together, Batman remained Elfman’s biggest grossing film until Spider-man (2002). More importantly, Batman brought Elfman to public attention and established him as a creditable film composer. Elfman often scores much of his music around leitmotifs then develops them through the use of variations. The use of thematic development illustrates Elfman’s influences from composers such as Bernard Herrman (Psycho, 1960) from the Golden Age of films. Having established the main materials of the score, Elfman works through the film chronologically, using the materials he has developed in a manner which is extremely unmethodical. Batman Returns (1992) is the sequel to Batman (1989), directed by Tim Burton with Michael Keaton reprising the role of Bruce Wayne/Batman.

  • All-Star Cast Announced for ELF: the Musical at the Hamilton Family
    All-Star Cast Announced for ELF: The Musical at the Hamilton Family Theatre Cambridge Popular Panto Performer Tim Porter to Play Buddy The Elf Monday, September 16, 2019 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE – The best way to spread Christmas cheer is singing loud for all to hear! Fall has arrived and with the autumn leaves comes the countdown to the holiday season (100 days until Christmas!). Drayton Entertainment is pleased to announce that actor Tim Porter will don the iconic yellow tights when he takes on the coveted role of Buddy the Elf in the company’s highly-anticipated production of ELF: The Musical. The production will run at the Hamilton Family Theatre Cambridge from November 20 to December 22. Audiences will recognize Porter as the comical sidekick in many pantos – in Jack and the Beanstalk, he was Jack’s silly brother Super Simon; in Cinderella, he was the princess’ charming companion Buttons; in Aladdin, he was the hero’s trusted pal Wishy Washy; and in Snow White, he was the heroine’s loyal woodsman Woody. This holiday season, Porter will take centre stage in the lead role of Buddy the Elf, the character made famous by Will Ferrell in the 2003 hit holiday movie. “Through his loveable panto characters, Tim has become an audience favourite with families,” says Alex Mustakas, Artistic Director of Drayton Entertainment. “He's got just the right goofy charm and joyful spirit to fill the green shoes of Buddy the Elf. Audiences are going to love him.” In addition to his work in the panto productions, Porter has also appeared in Man of La Mancha, The Drowsy Chaperone, HONK!, and many other shows for Drayton Entertainment.
