With the imminent release of Rose Matefeo’s brand new romcom Starstruck on BBC Three at the end of April, this coming year marks a watershed moment in broadcasting history with most BBC Three comedy either starring, written by or created by women. BBC Three will be the first UK channel to achieve this landmark in female representation with 58% of long-form scripted comedy written by women.
Upcoming titles include Lazy Susan, Starstruck and Ellie and Natasia plus the second series of both In My Skin and Back to Life.
In addition to this, the BBC today announces four new BBC Comedy Slices for BBC Three, all of which are written by and/or star female talent: Ladybaby, Amicable, Dinosaur and Britney, which results in the majority of comedy programmes on BBC Three now being female led.
Kate Daughton, outgoing Head of Comedy at the BBC, says: “Building on the huge success of Phoebe Waller-Bridge and Daisy May Cooper, this marks a monumental achievement and is testament to the fact the most pioneering and exciting new voices in comedy are increasingly female.”
Kate leaves the Comedy Commissioning team today having made a tremendous impact overseeing a raft of female first titles. Since Kate’s arrival in 2017 she has commissioned and nurtured Fleabag, Mum, Ghosts, Gavin & Stacey: Christmas Special (2019), This Time With Alan Partridge, Back to Life, The Goes Wrong Show, Out of Her Mind, Two Doors Down, In My Skin and Man Like Mobeen. Alongside the forthcoming Witchfinder, Alma’s Not Normal and Stephen Merchant series The Offenders (w/t).
Shane Allen, Director of BBC Comedy, says: “Five years ago there were still articles asking where all the funny women were. That hoary old nonsense can finally be dispensed with once and for all. It’s a level playing field with the most vibrant and dynamic work coming through from females writers and writer performers who are elevating the art form of comedy and expanding its horizons. As for Kate Daughton, no longer will she curse at me for loud sneezing in the office. Partly because she’s leaving and mostly because we’ve not been in the office. Truly bereft; in denial that she’s off and we’re lucky to have had her for so long.”
Charlotte Moore, Chief Content Officer, says: “Kate’s impeccable taste, whip smart comedy brain and beguiling ways with talent have had a transformative impact on the comedy output in her time here. The fact that BBC Three can claim to be the first UK channel with a majority of female led and written scripted comedy is in large part down to her vision and passion for backing genre defining female creatives. She’ll be sorely missed but thankfully leaves behind a terrific legacy of shows ahead.”
我太喜欢这部音乐剧了，充满了人文关怀，让欢乐和感动交融。这个在911发生之后，飞机上的人们和住在gander的人们相遇相识然后产生交集的美好故事，让一场灾难变得不那么悲伤。这部音乐剧并没有过分哀伤，而是有喜有悲，正是在灾难中让人性的光辉更加夺目耀眼。很多事情并不全是坏事，我们总要在黑暗中找到那一丝微光。
2001至2021，世界变了又好像没变。先不说这样的美式主旋律正能量和国内作品的立意高下问题，100分钟的舞台演绎中，完全打破了传统音乐剧的情节和幕次、空间与场景、台词与唱段的界限，让技术完全为艺术表达服务，就很赞！
CFA！！！世界上最好的音乐剧！！！本岛民热泪盈眶！！！
大事件下的小角落 还是有点意思。对舞台剧这种形式没有太大兴趣。
【官摄】暴风眼外，世界边缘，有人得到有人失去，但所有人都交换过温柔和善意
“Tonight we honor what was lost, but we also commemorate what we found.”闪烁人性美的群像音乐剧。
7年后的911，大雨堵车，我没赶上美联航的飞机
西安疫情lockdown，楼下大喇叭里“请大家保持距离 防止交叉感染” 萦绕不停。面前荧幕里的人们高歌“I’m an islander. I’m an islander.”眼睛里是不容忽视的、充满生命力的光。会好的，我坚信。
在如今全球lockdown的时期，“No man is an island"的颂歌显得尤为可贵。这也是我看过了布景、角色、场景转换最有创意的一部音乐剧了，虽然一人分饰好几角，但是个个都人设分明，没有一丝混乱。里面的不同种族、宗教信仰、性别和国籍的陌生人的碰撞和交往都是理想社会中才能达到的和谐。看到最后音乐剧中原型的人和演员一一合影的时候，一边哭一边觉得：哇，原来世界可以这么美好啊。
挺有意思的舞台剧 没有过于繁复的道具把舞台利用到了极致 和总统那部不同 这部视角主要集中在多辆飞机被迫降的小镇 居民们和乘客一起共渡难关 在这几年的疫情中 去回顾历史上的重大灾难和人渡过难关的勇气也是对当下的一种鼓励
有生之年一定一定要跟朋友一起去看一场音乐剧！鸡皮疙瘩都起来了！最喜欢女机长和黑人老妇
我也好想进剧院我也好想进剧院我也好想进剧院——！所以像jamie那样拍成电影才是更好的做法，这样只会让一个月被取消三场演出的观众更加emo。
我见识短，我老土，我第一次看百老汇歌剧，我就是被震撼到了，怎么着。
隔离，灾难，剧院，都让我眼泪汪汪。世界戏剧节快乐，早日剧院见🙏
偶然翻阅截图相册，发现疫情前期已有小道消息说剧组要来华巡演，那时的期待如歌曲本身一般昂扬热切。孤岛壁垒被打破，大洋之上是平等众生共同奏响的波西米亚狂想曲，灯光汇聚每一角落，借由新时代流媒，远渡重洋的温暖故事，在这个似乎重蹈覆辙的严冬给人以鼓舞。

Who doesn’t want to be an islander?
这才是音乐剧，有好故事有好音乐有好表演，开大巴的那段动作非常逼真。
A great musical telling an inspiring true story in an exhilarating fashion that celebrates decency and kindness!
