It’s showtime! In this bite-sized episode, Chad takes us through the opening of Bob Fosse’s autobiographical kaleidoscope, All That Jazz.
Each time I return to the "Everything Old is New Again" scene in All That Jazz, I’m wowed anew at the sheer fullness of it; how it can pack so much feeling and information into an ostensibly sweet little dance number.
An impressionistic weave of artistic successes and personal failings, All that Jazz is at once a confession, a self-promotion, a showbiz love letter, an apology, a middle finger, and a darkly-comic musical, all braided into an exploration of the five stages of grief.
