jajajunkie's right.. I searched google with a quote from the show hoping to find a quote site or something... I really didn't pay attention to the year, just where I could ask my question & not be shunned to FAQ-hell.
Thanks SweetNAwful for the quote! I appreciate it.
One of my favorite shows, I wish they'd revive it soon since it was basically forced to close on Broadway.

Does anyone know the quote about "This is a musical" that's somewhere in the dialogue between Little Sally & Officer Lockstock about hydrolics? Too funny, & I wish I could remember it verbatim. Anyone have the libretto lyring around? Someone borrowed mine & I haven't seen it since

I sat front row in house left... being so close you may miss a little feet movement, & you can see into the stage left wing, but it didn't take away anything for me. There's a lot of audience interaction & being so close was fun in that sense.
Mezz would probably be awesome, too... they're always my preferred seats as opposed to back of the orchestra or partial view in the orchestra in any show.

Jacques Brel rush...

I don't believe there's a student policy for Jacques Brel (talkinbroadway.com doesn't list one) but I was just wondering if anyone had heard differently. I'd like to try going tonight for the 7:00 show. Thanks!

I did a cabaret at my school last fall of Brel's music. Some of it's in Alive & Well..., some isn't. It was my first exposure to his music & I fell in love with his lyrical writing & effective melodies. I'm going on Saturday & I can't wait! I'm excited to see how they same songs we did in our show are done, since they're do engrained in my mind as being a certain way. I'm also looking forward to hearing the songs I haven't heard yet.

I was probably at the table in front of you, Alli. I was with a friend & three other girls we didn't know were seated with us. We went for Sebastian, primarily, but I loooove Jeffrey Kuhn (saw him in Assassins) & I was thrilled he would be there, since I didn't see him on the list when I first made reservations. I was bummed that Wayne Wilcox couldn't be there, but Christopher Hanke sang his song so beautifully!
I've never seen Stephanie J. Block do anything before, but daaaamn, can she

I saw it on July 16th (matinee) & I was absolutely blown away. I went in knowing nothing except when I had seen at the Tony's & heard about it review-wise (which is why I chose to go) & hooooly cow, it is definitely one of the top performances I have ever seen. I did a Squeaky Fromme monologue & character analysis for a final last month, & I just keep getting more & more in love with this show. I'd love for it to open somewhere again, like Off-Broadway or something for a short period of time, th

"Steven Pasquale is a star.
How he hasn't had a musical written for him is beyond me. Such control and passion all with an understated simplicity. He was stunning."
I was just saying to a friend this morning that I hope he has an original part in an original musical on Broadway soon, because yesterday he easily earned the title of my favorite male performer in all aspects. I love how you summed it up with "such control and passion with an understated simplicity." The simplicity is

I'll give my two cents, just because.
I absolutely 100% agree about Steven. For me, he stole the show (followed closely by Michael Arden & Celia Keenan-Bolger, personally). "Lily's Eyes"... oooh my goodness. That's the one song I was looking forward to the most (I only know about three others) & it met my expectations. It was definitely a "Whoa, this guy is hugely versatile & he's done everything I've seen so very well." I'm just awestruck by his talent. "Race You to the Top of the Morn

Lisa Yuen was on for Deborah Craig as Marcy last night. She was great, was it her first time on? I know the understudies at Spelling Bee haven't had a lot of opportunities to go on, because of that cute little video they had.
I would LOVE to see Todd go on, thanks for the info! I saw him in Godspell in 2001 & loved him.

re: Fave solo recordings by Broadway actors

2005, 11:30:43 PM
Most of the solo recording I know come from Rent cast members, but they have some great stuff.
Adam Pascal, Anthony Rapp, Idina Menzel
Caren Lyn Manuel
Matt Caplan
Joshua Kobak / Swim
Chad Richardson
Jeremy Kushnier
Cary Shields / Poncho
Karmine Alers
There's a lot of them (definitely forgetting some), & I enjoy them all, for the most part. I think since Rent has such a youthful, rockish type of voice to it a lot of the actors are themselves serious

I think you can get her CD at cdbaby.com now, but I'm not sure.

Avenue Q, Hairspray, Rent, & Wicked all do a lotto & that's the cheapest way to get good seats. I know that Wicked is always majorly crowded (normally I would have said wicked crowded but my Boston roots would have turned against me for that ^_^), & that Rent is very undeterminable as to how many people will be there on what day. Avenue Q only pulls about 6 names. I don't know, if you need details about it you could PM me unless you already know about them & this post is really pointless.

I only remember Pee Wee Herman being in it, because I knew who he was as a little girl. That's so cool, though! I tried finding episodes available online or something, but I couldn't really find any. Any info on where I could find them? Those things were so great!
