"Miss Baltimore Crabs" and "Cooties" - Hairspray "Your Eyes" - Rent "Magic Foot" - Spelling Bee (I don't know why, I just can't STAND that song!) "The Dark I Know Well" - Spring Awakening "Gee, Officer Krupke" - West Side Story. I know, I know, it's brilliant, but something about it irks me. "Another Pyramid" - AIDA

Spelling Bee, most definitely.

The "Act II" opener in the Drowsy Chaperone... At the beginning, before we realized what was going on, it was one gigantic "...the HELL?" Hilarious, though.

Johnny sounds pretty good, and the orchestrations are magnificent. I can't say that so much about Helena Bonham Carter. There's not much behind her voice. Great clips though.

re: Sweeney Todd with a rock re-arrangement Oct 26

I can just imagine some arranger somewhere going a little too crazy on the electric guitar. It would sound like Trans-Siberian Orchestra meets Phantom of the Opera movie in the deepest circle of hell.

BroadwayEnthusiast, I'll third that. I saw Drowsy for the first time last month and I was not much excited by a Playbill that looked like clipart.

That was a nice interview. I still think that if I bumped into her on the street, I would probably call her Veronica. Hope she gets back to the stage soon (even though I love Heroes!)

re: Spamalot v. Spelling Bee Aug 6

See Spelling Bee. It's fresh, and the jokes aren't as recycled (not that Spamalot is bad - it's just more familiar). Spelling Bee is absolutely hilarious.

re: Kristen Bell as Elle Woods? Jul 29
2007, 09:21:23 PM
Kristen Bell has great voice as far as I know. It would be cool to see her onstage as Elle. (Incidentally, I just watched the Veronica Mars episode where Laura Bell Bundy guest stars).

'The Biggest Buzz on Broadway' Jul 25

Bump! I wanted to know, how is Spelling Bee these days? I might be taking a group to see it, but I'd like to know if it's still as good as it was with the original cast (which I saw once). Do they still have that energy? I haven't heard much about them lately!

re: At what age is it too old to stage door? Jun 29
2007, 12:07:36 AM
It's strange, I was actually thinking about this when I saw Spring Awakening last week. I'm in college, and I was about a head taller than all the girls around me. I felt like I had forgotten to bring along my braces or something. That said, I really don't think there's a maximum age to stage door, even if it seems inundated with teenyboppers at times. I'm sure the actors appreciate being appreciated by audience members of all ages.

re: Favorite Broadway 'pre-set' Jun 28

I loved walking into the theatre for Spelling Bee because they did such a good job making it look exactly like an elementary school. It was so comprehensive and detailed.

re: Broadway In Wilmington Thread Jun 27
2007, 11:44:06 PM
The DuPont has had quite a few great seasons, but I don't really care for the 07-08 season they've posted. I haven't actually seen a show there, even though I'm local. I've heard good things, though. It usually takes a trip into Philly to have access to a wider selection of shows, since there are so many theatres there and Wilmington only has the one.

I think the "Rama lama lama ..." part is kind of funny. But overall, grotesque.
