Forest just finished a reading of Back to the Future the Musical!!! So all is well on our end!!

How are all of you out there in TEATRO land???? Let us know!!

We hope to see you all soon!

Best Wishes
Jeremiah! 

In addition to Italy, we dropped by Barcelona which was equally as impressive. We are so blessed to be able to see these places while doing what we love to do. We can’t wait to see all you guys in your hometowns wherever they may be. Soon, soon, soon.

Right now I am going over a script and score for a short, fun show that I will be doing next week: a musical production of Back To The Future! LOL. Its going to be so fun! I can’t wait. Rehearsals are tonight.  Wish me luck you guys. I’m very excited.

Then up ahead next month… the guys and I are going to Denmark! We’ll let you guys know how that goes when we get back. We can’t wait to get started though.

Okay.. thats all for now from me. Hope you all are having a wonderful day and we will speak to you again soon!

Forest

Thought I’d pop my head in, hope you are all well! I am currently having a jolly time in the 39 steps which is playing at the Criterion Theatre, Piccadilly Circus, London. It is a comic play based on the book ‘The 39 Steps’ by John Buchan and the Hitchcock film of the same title (talking Hitchcock - I saw the film Strangers on a Train for the first time the other day and it is just superb so see it if you haven’t already).  For the role I have to sport a rather attractive pencil moustache which is a first for me, and probably everyone other male who was born after the 1940s, but I am enjoying my Errol Flynn look and take great pleasure in telling curious onlookers that the furry brown line on my upper lip is ‘for the part’.

My theatre is a stone’s throw away from Simon’s theatre (I could literally throw a stone to cover the distance; nothing large, perhaps a pebble) where he is still playing Raoul to great acclaim in Phantom of the Opera. So we regularly see each other, often meeting after the show in the Groucho Club for a swift refreshment (An ‘Old Fashioned’ is my new favourite tipple if anyone ever sees me across the bar and wants to buy me a drink).

Anyway must dash but as you have seen we are working on a new album which we are very excited about and welcome Forest who simply has a fantastic voice, is a great guy, and I can’t wait till you all get to know him (plus he’s got a really cool name. Forest. Think I might change my name to that. much better than mine)

Much Love

Forest Alexander (formerly known as Andrew Alexander) x

This is Forest! I just wanted to drop a line and let you guys know that I am extremely excited to be a part of Teatro! Its a real blessing. Looking forward to recording the new album (which is going to be fun, you guys!) and getting to go out on the road and see you all face to face!

The guys and I are heading to Italy next week which will a great experience as it will be my first time over there and we’ll be getting to do what we love!

Right now I am sitting on my couch by the window. Trying to enjoy this beautiful weather we have in NYC and also trying to recoup from a rough night last night. Couldn’t sleep and I have an audition in a few hours! Yikes! Lol. Keep your fingers crossed you guys.

Have a wonderful day/night everyone (depending on where you are, lol) and we will talk to you and hopefully see you real soon!

Forest

At the moment Stephen is in Malaysia filming a movie. Jeremiah is finishing up a run in “Carousel”, Simon is still working away at Phantom, and Andrew has been doing some modeling work and private concerts!

We are sorry we haven’t been writing regular blogs but as we are sure you all understand we have been a bit crazy both with Teatro and our other work.
Now that our other projects are coming to end we can tell you what the plans are for the future.

At present Teatro is working out a deal to start slowly working our way into the AMERICAN market. We are all very excited about this prospect and hope to have more info on it for you soon.

So one thing we would like to present to all our fans out there is what songs would you like to hear on our next Album?? We want your feed back!! We have some ideas and things that we have been working on. But what you would like to hear is also important to us!! So that being said drop us some comments. 

Also to let you all know there is a Teatro concert coming up in Aug!!!!! So we hope to see you all there. We will have the info up as soon as we get it.

Jeremiahjames.net is now up and running so if you haven’t had a chance check it ou. Also be sure to check on Stephens facebook page for his updates as well.

We are hoping to have a new video blog on this site soon. That way itll be more fun to say hello to you all!!!

The guys

We just wanted to take a moment to say Happy Holidays from all of us to all of you!!!!We hope you have enjoyed our Christmas gift for your constant support! (The 2 free Christmas downloads).
The last few months have been busy to say the least. Simon has been performing with Phantom of the Opera on the West End! He and his leading lady performed at the reopening of the Paris Opera house which was then broadcast on one of the USA’s biggest national morning shows.
Stephen has been working on a Musical in Malaysia which has kept him very busy.
Andrew has been keeping busy by working with Jeremiah on new Teatro material!!!
Some of the biggest news has been Jeremiah opening Carousel on the West End to rave reviews (4 and 5 stars). Both for the show, and himself. Some of the reviews include....

“Truly believable as Billy, Jeremiah James convincingly portrays both the gentle and brutish sides of his character, while Alexandra Silber’s heartbreaking performance is capable of stopping the show”
-Linda Martland, THE STAGE

“Jeremiah James is outstanding”
-OBSERVER

“Jeremiah James is sexily magnetic”
-METRO

“But it’s easily explained by the tremendous chemistry between Alexandra Silber’s vulnerable and deeply touching mill-worker and Jeremiah James’s dark, brooding hothead Billy.  Being a’ couple o’ specks o’ nothing’, as Billy puts it, makes them kindred spirits. Their yearning pours out in If I Loved You, and Billy imagines the child Julie is carrying, James makes the transition from fecklessness to fatherhood in the space of one marvellous number. (The Soliloquy)”
-Georgina Brown, THE MAIL ON SUNDAY

“It’s a treat, too, to have a lead who exudes real American man. Jeremiah James, who plays fairground bad boy Billy Bigelow, conveys his raging, passionate uselessness in a way which wins your empathy, despite his tendency to smack the women he loves in the chops.”
-TIMEOUT MAGAZINE LONDON

“Jeremiah James brings a dangerous air and brooding sex appeal to Billy Bigelow.”
-March Shenton, LONDON LITE

“Jeremiah James’s Billy Bigelow is outstanding too: the desperado with the heart of gold, his conscience flickering like a faulty pilot light.”
-Kate Kellaway, THE OBSERVER

“What a shattering impression James and Silber make, after the dead Billy returns to earth and realises his daughter is following in his unhappy footsteps.” I let my golden chances pass me by,” he sadly sings and returns to heaven , half his life lost. An experience to cherish.”
-Nicholas De Jongh, EVENING STANDARD

“Posner’s actors, especially the vocally impressive Alexander Silber as a touching Julie and Jeremiah James as a muscular Billy, play the heart of the piece with stirring conviction.”
-Michael Coveney, WHATSONSTAGE.COM

“Jeremiah James as the dark-souled Billy and Alexandra Silber as the adoring Julie possess fine voices”
-Michael Billington, THE GUARDIAN

“The level of singing throughout is close to operatic. Muscular Mr James (as good-looking as a young Oliver Reed) brings nonchalance to his part in the duet If I Loved You - a contrast to Alexandra Silber’s impassioned Julie.”
-Quentin Letts, DAILY MAIL QUENTIN LETTS

“Silber herself has a rich mezzo soprano voice, and her duets with Jeremiah James’s full-bodied Billy are packed with both longing and disappointment.”
-Michael Coveney, THE INDEPENDENT

The Guys

So its been a busy few weeks for Teatro!!!! Now that we have a moment to take a breath we wanted to let our friends here know what’s been going on; >
O.K. so first things first.
Stephen has just finished filming an indie film that will be released in the near future which we are all pumped about seeing!!! We will let you all know the release date as soon as we know. So keep checking back! He also may be staring in a play come Oct. So again check back we will keep you posted.
Simon premiered in one of the most if not the most popular musical of all time, Phantom of the Opera, in the part of Raul. Family and friends were on hand to mark the event. It was so fantastic to see him in a role that truthfully was tailor made for him. He was a stand out in a cast full of incredible talent. I can personally say this seeing as I have seen the show 5 times But in whole hearted honesty, he was fantastic in the show. He combined his unique rock vocal sound and masculine demeanor to make the character of Raul more than just the handsome love interest but a three dimensional character with passion and intensity. Coming from a theater lover, as soon as you have a chance, come to Her Majesty’s Theater and see him in this role. It truly is not to be missed.
Andrew has been busy working on Teatro material for our upcoming concerts. Different ways of presenting our songs in concert!!!! Maybe playing some instruments etc. So you may see something different come the next concert!!
Jeremiah (me.) has been busy pulling double duty with rehearsals for CAROUSEL and concerts with the guys. Now in less than a week, CAROUSEL will be opening at the Churchill Theatre, Bromley. Now as you see me in person, I do look a bit different due to my long hair and large mutton chop sideburns. But i promise it is me just the same. If you come to the show please stop and say hello after
Now as you may know Teatro as a group has been all over the place the last month. After releasing in SA, we have been busy doing interviews for their local press. So once again thank you in South Africa for all your support and hopefully soon you will be seeing us performing there live
On top of that we have been doing a string of concerts. Just recently we were flown to Venice, Italy to do a private concert, then flew back and had the unbelievable honor of performing in front of 40,000 people at Proms in the Park. Then from there we were off to Belgium to launch the current album live in front of 25,000 people at the STARS of EUROPE concert for Unicef which was broadcast to 15 countries across Europe. So thank you soo much to folks in Belgium for having us!!! We look forward to coming back, and seeing you all again soon!
We also want to thank Oliver Thornton for once again stepping in for myself and Simon when we were unavailable due to our show commitments at different times throughout the month. Oliver is not only a fantastic and dynamic performer but also a dear friend who we all consider to be the 5th member of Teatro. Don’t miss the opportunely to see him STAR alongside Jason Donavon in the new West End production of Priscilla Queen of the Dessert The Musical. (http://www.priscillathemusical.com)
So there we are. Once again thank you soooo much to all our fans for their continued support. We hope to see you all soon. And remember new things are coming soon! So keep checking back!!!
Best Wishes to you all.
