“I honestly feel like we are not the same to any degree,” Steele says about resemblance to his character. And I brought up your hair.”Īnd so, up Anatole’s hair went, a well-pomaded pompadour that gives the impression less of a prince you’d want to bring home to your parents and more of the guy you meet at a club with a job in finance who you know, you just know, will be bad for you but you still can’t help yourself. He said, ‘I don’t insert myself into design opinions often, and I find because I don’t, people listen more when I actually do. I just looked like this typical Prince Charming. milquetoast guy. When we moved to Broadway, I had a conversation with Dave Malloy about it. What I observed, and from the discussions we had, is seemed too Prince Charming-like with it down, and parted, and over, and blonde. “ my hair was longer and down and sort of floppy. He looks in the mirror, and he thinks, Good to go.” He’s just really very-child like, in that ‘I see shiny object, I want it for my own, I will run it down until I get it’ way. He gets it at the end, I think there’s a brief moment of realization that, oh, I should have handled this differently, but he’s not mustache-twisty to me. “I think for me, villains are conscious of the fact that they are doing something wrong. But still, Steele says, it’s not quite right to think of him as the bad guy. He spends his money on women and wine.”Īnatole, who seduces women soon-to-be-married and plucks money from his friends’ hands, is the closest thing to a villain in the plot of The Great Comet. The last of these is a specialty of Steele’s Anatole Kuragin, the androgynous Casanova with a platinum pompadour who sweeps onto the stage with a David Bowie swagger and an introductory line in the opening song that tells the audience almost everything we need to know about him: “Anatole is hot. Actors weave between seats, walking on platforms that wind through the red-velvet room, tossing pirogues, notes, and flirtatious glances to audience members as the plot requires. So, the fact that they are there each night, and they are alive and fresh and new, and they don’t really know what is going to happen, it’s this amazing energy to be able to pull from.”Īlthough less intimate than its first staging at Ars Nova in 2012 and its subsequent production in a tent in the Meatpacking District, The Great Comet at the Imperial Theatre has pulled off a massively impressive feat of creating a Russian-dinner-club intimacy in a big Broadway room. This close-” he gestures towards the barstool-width between us-“as you are sitting to me now. “The other element that’s super pivotal to this entire show,” Steele says, “is the audience. Note that increases in attack power are multiplicative unless stated otherwise.The two of us are sitting at the Stinger Bar in the Continental Hotel. Use these Buffs to maximize the performance of Comet.
