Re: Completely Different Anon

you're honestly offended by translated musicals or operas.
I'm not offended. Offense is personal. I find it grating.

I think you just want to show off how "gifted" and "discerning" you are.

Hardly. Someone asked me how many languages I could read - otherwise I would not even have mentioned it. And besides: There are hundreds of languages. Speaking 2 or speaking 5 doesn't really make that much of a difference. If I do not know a language (and Italian IS one of the languages I don't know, btw) I also have to read the subtitles. Or read the programme. Or actually research what it is about before going to see it.

yet another anon

Most people, I imagine, would prefer to treat a trip to see a musical as an entertainment to be enjoyed rather than as an exam they need to study for. Musical theatre is intended as popular mass entertainment, after all, and that is how most of the audience will regard it and they will want it to be readily understandable. Most international productions simply wouldn't happen if the libretto was not localised. Always supposing you could get the singers, do you honestly think you'd get the audience, apart from a handful of musical theatre geeks?
