Gingers Tonic - the most intense show in my life for sure.
.
Im actually still processing the overwhelming emotions 😭
.
U might find it hard to believe but this show started off as a joke years ago, when I began doing spinoff versions of classical pieces i was practicing. At that time I hardly knew what Swing is, let alone arranging for a big ensemble.
.
.
And this idea stayed in my head for the longest time.
.
.
Ever heard of dry aged meat? Similar idea, the longer the meat is aged, the more the flavors develop and intensify. Finally, it was the perfect time for consumption and I hope you’ve all had a good bite 😋
.
Im still in disbelief at how quickly it all happened. It took ten years or preparation, but the performance itself lasted only a little more than half an hour :(
.
Get this though: it wasn’t only one guy who had the chance to experience it, more than a thousand of you supported us by showing up. Your presence gave life to the entire theatre and Im sure every single one of us that was there felt it together. It was a show full of life.
.
So thank you. For simply being there.
.
.
I would also like to thank all the excellent musicians and remarkable human beings Ive had the pleasure of working with, without whom, the show would not have been possible.

1. Martin Luther King, Jr., said, ‘Everybody can be great because anybody can serve. You don’t have to have a college degree to serve. You don’t have to make your subject and verb agree to serve. You don’t have to know about Plato and Aristotle to serve. You don’t have to know Einstein’s Theory of Relativity to serve. You don’t have to know the Second Theory of Thermodynamics and Physics to serve. You only need a heart full of grace. A soul generated by love.’” 🦋⁣

Dear people of Hong Kong!
.
As someone, who witnessed amazing movement, which started by Ukrainian Youth in November 2013 and then became revolution of Dignity; and someone who created (directed and produced) Oscar Nominated Documentary “WINTER ON FIRE”, I would love to voice my solidarity with you. I would love to encourage you to stay strong and stay united! One of the main things I learned from Maidan, was amazing unity between young and old, between rich and poor, between people of different social classes and nationalities.
.
During the 93 days of the Maidan movement, which was also called “Revolution of Dignity,” what was important that, people hold the power to create change. It’s not always in the hands of the government. The idea that freedom and belief in economic stability and democracy can unite people of all nationalities, races, social classes and religions is so important. The fact that different faiths and nationalities can exist together and live peacefully in this region, and with respect for each other, highlights the importance of this movement.
.
I’d like for all of you to see, that hope truly lies in the hands of the today’s younger generations, who believe in the possibilities for change and freedom, even when the price for that freedom are their lives. These are young people who want to live in a future where they have a chance at enjoying freedom, and who are ready to stand up for their rights and beliefs under the worst conditions, even bullets. I would also like for you to know, that in order to be a true patriot, you need to be a patriot in your heart and soul; you do not necessarily have to be born where the battles are being waged if they’re being waged where you live.
.
Not only did these 93 days completely change Ukraine and the lives of those heroes and patriots participating in the movement, but they also changed the world and world history after that. From the early stages of Maidan, when the United States, Canada and the European Union tried to find a peaceful, diplomatic resolution, to the current situation around the entire war conflict there, this was a movement about true change. Understanding that everything must change - that we all must be open to change - is one of the most important things to learn in life.
.
I think the importance of young people’s political awakening, driven by the belief that a much better future is possible in a democratic society with freedom of expression, has never been more resonant. There are new civil rights movements happening all over the world today. People from many different generations, social classes, nationalities and faiths are all self-organizing towards one common goal, and that is both universal and encouraging.
.
Remember it’s now or never!
With you in spirit!

親愛的香港人︰
.
作為見證了2013年11月由烏克蘭青年發起，其後發展成「尊嚴革命」這個驚人時刻的其中一人；以及創作（執導和製作）奧斯卡提名紀錄片《凜冬烈火》(WINTER ON FIRE) 的人，我希望發聲表達對你們的支持。我希望你們能堅強和團結！我在獨立廣場學到一樣重要的東西，那就是團結—不論是年輕人和長者﹑富有的人和窮人﹑還是不同社會階層和不同國藉的人。
.
在獨立廣場的運動，也就是「尊嚴革命」持續的93天裡，最關鍵的是人民掌握力量並創造改變。這從來不是政府能掌控的。經濟穩定和民主的自由和信念可以令不同國藉﹑種族﹑社會階層和宗教的人團結起來，這個概念很重要。不同的信仰和民族可以共存，並在這個地方和平地生活﹑相互尊重的場面突顯了這次運動的重要性。
.
我想讓你們看到，希望確實掌握在今天這個相信改變的可能性和自由的年輕世代手中，儘管換取自由所付出的代價是他們的生命。那些年輕人都希望將來有機會享有自由，亦準備好為他們的權利和信仰站出來，在最壞的情況下﹑甚至不惜被子彈打都依然站出來。我亦希望你們明白，如果你是真的愛這個地方，你需要從內心到靈魂都認同自己的身份；若鬥爭發生在你居住的地方，而你不是出生在這個地方，你依然要挺身而出。
.
這93天不但完全改變了烏克蘭﹑革命中的英雄以及熱愛烏克蘭這個國家的人的一生，也改變了全世界以及今後的歷史。從獨立廣場發起運動的早期階段，美國，加拿大和歐盟嘗試尋求一個和平外交的解決方案，到爆發戰爭衝突並發展成當前局勢，整埸運動象徵的是真正徹底的改變。要明白世上萬物都會改變 ，而我們都必須樂於接受改變，這是生命中最重要的事情之一。
.
我認為，相信生活在一個有言論自由的民主社會可以擁有一個更美好的未來，是推動年輕人政治覺醒的關鍵，從來沒有其他東西能比這更能引起共鳴。今天，世界各地都有新的民權運動發起。來自不同世代﹑不同社會階層﹑不同國家和擁有不同信仰的人都紛紛自發去達成同一個目標，這個現象不但普遍而且鼓舞人心。
.
切記時不再來，機不可失！
我的精神與你們同在！

Neil Patrick Harris, Anna Kendrick and Jack Black perform the opening number "Moving Pictures" at the 2015 #Oscars!

How do you make a great opening number for the Oscars? Get a bunch of Broadway talent to do it.

The production number, "Moving Pictures," sung by Tony-winning Academy Awards host Neil Patrick Harris and "Into the Woods" star Anna Kendrick, was written by Academy Award-winning "Frozen" songwriters Robert Lopez and Kristen Anderson-Lopez.

The visuals edited Harris into classic films from "The Wizard of Oz" to "Star Wars" to "Into the Woods."

The middle section of the song, as sung by Jack Black, aped Stephen Sondheim's "Witch's Rap" from Into the Woods, and he warned Harris that he would be “better off polishing your Tony." Kendrick drove him off by yelling “Beat it” and flinging her Cinderella shoe at him.

Lyrics:

[Neil Patrick Harris]
Wow, check out this place. Check out everything.
Check out the glamour, the glitter, people Tweeting on the Twitter
and no one's drunk and bitter yet 'cause no one has lost.
Look at the diamonds, the dresses, people going to excesses,
the stress is on and everybody's fingers are crossed.
I know the camera's on and we're behaving our best.
Yet, I secretly hope someone pulls a Kanye West.
But we are here tonight, with our Xanax and Dior,
thank you lists and publicists who fought the Oscar war.
Tonight we toast what we love most
and I am thrilled to be your host.
'Cause all of it is for moving pictures, shadows and light,
like a magic trick done in plain sight.
Why do we love them? Why do we care?
When they're just moving pictures that aren't really there
But then I think of Chaplin and Monroe
and Argo and Fargo or when Marty made his car go
back in time at the mall
And then there's Bardot and Brando and Billy Dee as Lando
or when Sharon went commando and unsettled us all.
I gasped when Indy goes back for his hat
or when I think of all the tension between Ben and Matt.
[pause] Oh, my stars
I love transformers that transform and perfect storms that storm.
small town girls who change the world by challenging the norm
Godfather 2, the movie Clue
all these films that inspired you to stand up and perform.
Moving pictures, take us over the rainbow
across the fields of our dreams.
In the heat of the night to defeat and to fight evil schemes.
To swim or to swing, to dance or to sing,
to flee down a flight in fright,
yes, moving pictures are coming to life tonight.

[Anna Kendrick joins]

Moving pictures.
[Kendrick]
Where is my shoe?
[Harris]
Is this your Jimmy Choo?
[Kendrick]
Why yes.
[Both]
Moving pictures
[Harris]
and how they can move you.
[Kendrick]
And also improve you.
[Harris]
The joy of pretending,
[Kendrick]
With such happy endings except for in Gone Girl when that lady slit your throat.
[Harris]
Spoiler alert.
[Both]
Moving pictures...

[Jack Black]
Stop!
This is what you sound like:
'Movies, movies wow they rock'
Listen kid, it's all a big crock.
Now it's market trends
and fickle friends
and Hollywood baloney.
Believe me Neil,
you're better off just polishing your Tony
This industry's in flux,
it's run by mucky-mucks,
pitching tents for tentpoles and chasing Chinese bucks.
Opening with lots of zeroes,
all we get is superheroes.
Superman, Spider Man, Batman,
Jedi man, sequel man, prequel man.
Formulaic scripts!
And after 50 Shade of Grey, they'll all have leather whips.
In a world where our breeds are becoming machines,
the only screens we're watching are the screens in our jeans
Screens in our jeans Screens in our jeans
The only screens we're watching...

[Harris]
JACK! I'm trying to...I'm kinda in the...Would you mind?
[Black]
But you know?
[Kendrick]
BEAT IT.
[Black]
Fine.

[Harris]
Yes, green-lit films can stall
[Kendrick]
Scripts can hit a wall
[Harris]
Stars may pass
[Kendrick]
Or fire your ass
[Harris]
And weekly grosses fall.
But when they hit, you must admit,
they sometimes change your view of it
in ways both big and small
[Kendrick]
Have a ball

Moving pictures, millions of pixels on screens.
They may not be real life,
but they'll show you what life really means.
More than any one image.
More than any one star.
Truly, moving pictures shape who we are
whether we're big brained and British
Or hiking and skittish
a legendary leader
a Birdman in a theater
a boy we watch until he's grown
a sniper in a combat zone
a wealthy philanthropic creep
Magic Meryl Effin' Streep
Lobby boys and bleeding drummers
All these awesome up and comers
Who will get a statue? Results are coming at you!
At the 87th Oscars moving picture show!
