X: The Life and Times of Malcolm X: “Shoot your shot”

[@84axwall]

Saw it at the Met Tuesday. Overwhelming! A masterpiece! It debuted in 1986 and has been neglected for decades. It should be as much a part of the opera repertory as Rigoletto.

My review (written by Neil Leslie Gilbert of © N L G W J Household Searched for opera performance to attend and found Met Opera Live: X: The Life and Times of Malcolm X via cinemas. ACT: 1 Delighted about submitting. Though some dialogue differed from text. Wanted to sing at view of subtle text when actors and actresses sung vocals. Was hopeful of (and expected) vocals to sound like word spellings, which I experienced. Stage acting had moments where actors and actresses movements declare professionalism. E.g. I wanted to synchronise vision and sound. I would think: 'success of drama on stage or film productions is achieved when one's mind is synchronised with reference i.e. dictionaries or encyclopedia during or and by the end of performance' actors and actresses grammar/ vocals improved by the end of act 1. Apart from stage whispers, I enjoyed act 1. ACT: 2 Attentive to vocal dialogue. Focused upon past dated content. Me thought after end of Act 2 is: 1. 'what changed in American and overseas societies' 2. 'was Malcolm X coherently administrated' 3. 'was Malcolm X upheld in politics and law' 4. 'is current American societies and overseas societies better or not better after Malcolm X commission' Reflecting upon scenes and vocals of Act 1 (Malcolm X arrested, black's/ Negro's citizens stealing, and selling stolen property, is the white) Caucasian citizens homes safe) I wondered about actual occurrences of Malcolm X associated commission. Can anyone depend on authenticity of enactments. Delighted by actual snippets of Malcolm X after close of act 2. I would be comforted to read or hear about total hours Malcolm X commissioned and achievements. ACT 3 Focused by dialogue. Wondered if 1. Malcolm X used Nation to commission race related issues. 2. Was 'Nation' religious organization or other As me adore choral music, me enjoyed chanting. However, thought about Nation's leading figure telling Malcolm X to NOT preach/ speak. Wondered if Malcolm X was obedient with his / Nation's commission. Recollection of dancers in act 1 representing (what I think) people being frantic, upset, angry following police information of death and dialogue about fires started. (I would think the biased prejudice of AD:1931 America could have been retaliation associated with organisations formed by klu Klux Klan organisations) Wondered about how Nation organisation and klu Klux Klan organisations resolved and discussed peace in America. I enjoyed: Met Opera Live: X: The Life and Times of Malcolm X Stageplay was interesting, wonderful vocals, brilliant costumes. 'marvelous conceptual theatre'

Do you not know the full story of Malcolm? Malcom left his black girlfriend for a white woman before he was Malcolm X. he was running the streets like a hoodlum doing whomever whenever.
