Was that Kristin Chenoweth I saw in a commercial the other day? Nov 18
2005, 01:37:12 AM
So the other day I was vegging out on my couch watching tv and I swore up and down that Kristin Chenoweth was in this Old Navy (I think) commercial. Has anyone else seen it? Is that her? I really can't tell!

re: Dont you hate... (RENT related) Nov 15
2005, 07:32:14 PM
i have the same gripe. although i have yet to have the chance to go to New York to see it, i've been aware of the show since i saw it on the Rosie show. My sister (who is 6 years older than me) likes to pretend that she's all about theatre when she knows jack **** about anything when it comes to theatre. This is the same girl who thinks Joseph and the Amazing Technicolored Dream Coat (THE MOVIE!!) is the best musical ever. it makes me want to smack people!

For all of the songs already listed that I'm very familiar with I totally agree. However, I'm very surprsed that out of 113 posts I am going to be the first one to post these songs.
To The Lifeboats, We'll Meet Tomorrow and Still From Titanic

I Can Hear Music from Leader of the Pack
The Titanic songs make me tear up every damn time, with Leader of the Pack, I think it has more to do with the staging of that song when I saw it, although the

re: Question about Stage Managers Apr 26
2005, 03:03:27 AM
I've stage managed several times at my Community Theatre and i'm getting ready to stage manage again for Enchanted April. From my understanding and expierence, the stage manager (after the show is in run) is basically in charge of the entire damn thing. They call the show (lights, sound, props, ect.) they also can become winner of the "who me" award should anyone fall ill. I've always enjoyed being a stage manager, i don't think it's anything that can be taught, it's something you kinda have

I adore the music to this show, but unforturnately the book is really weak. I was kinda upset by that. I went into the theatre all psyched but when the show was over I walked out of the theatre, congratulated the people I knew in the show (community theatre production) then after the boosting of egos had subsided I leaned over to my sister and said "the boat sank so what? but at least the music was great"

re: all-time greatest musical showstoppers Mar 9
2005, 03:17:57 AM
I'm noticing that alot of these songs come at the end of the show or at the end of the act, then they really aren't a "Show stopper" per say the last song of an act or the show are suppost to be larger then life, so the audience will come back. Let's face it, if Defying Gravity didn't have what it has, no one would come back for the second act.

With Godspell it feels like my 6 year stint in Catholic School is coming back and slapping me in the face. I can't stand that show, the whole bag of goods. Now, i've seen JCS at least 20 times, from professional productions to high school productions, i can't get enough of that show, although the first movie of it made me want to shoot myself in the face. I would have to go with JCS hands down, I like the complexity of Judas in it.

re: Worst show you've seen Jan 19

My Community Theatre did a Production of "The Hobbit" and it was so god awful, over half the audience left at intermission. I went back to my high school to see a production of Guys and Dolls, and that show is such a hard one to screw up and i'm ashamed to even say i did this, but i walked out in the middle of Luck Be a Lady Tonight!
