Profile for Astrid2

I'm assuming Reeve Carney will be reading the Jared Leto part? As soon as I saw his name, that's who I pictured him as...

Swoooon. What a babe. I kind of love that Sutton is throwing her man into musicals, but I'm generally curious to see if he can sing. I saw him in Mother With The Hat and I'm shocked that he never blew his voice out, he was always getting hoarse.

Oh, I definitely agree that there's very little closure to any of the characters' issues. I don't feel like that was just an issue with Adam's character, it was an issue with the play as a whole. As for his role being "meaty," I do think we get to see his character grapple with a wide range of emotions, and he's the character that we learn the most about. But maybe I'm just biased! I think Adam is great - there's something very old-school about his acting style and his demeanor that I think i...

I was in the audience tonight. All I can say is: I really wish I took more notes in Econ 101. There was a lot of crazy stuff going in the nosebleeds, such as one man actually ANSWERING HIS PHONE during the show's first five minutes, and then walking to the exit and beginning to talk AGAIN before he slammed the door loudly behind him. Also - Adam Driver slammed a door at the end of the first act and shattered the door's window, sending shattered glass flying everywhere. Thought this was part o...

I too am volunteering so I plan to make a run at a lot of shows using my vouchers. So far I'm definitely seeing Jersey Shoresical, The Legend of Julie Taymor, and The Miss Teen Jesus Pageant. Keeping it classy! I might, MIGHT see Parker and Dizzy. It looks horrible but a part of me desperately wants to see Rodiney from The A-List: New York attempt "acting"...

Not technically a Playbill, but they do give out a newspaper-style pamphlet containing cast bios, etc. I believe they do have an official poster: http://bit.ly/o6W8k4

Saw it tonight and loved it. Hilarious and the songs are so, so catchy. I love that Jenn Harris seems to be making a career out of being the queen of parody shows. Saw her kill it as Natalie Portman in Swan!!! and her Jodie Foster tonight was spot on.

Oh, I would LOVE a Michael Arden album. So bummed he moved to L.A. I expected him to be getting big roles in musicals by now...

Yup. One of his self-portraits.

Changed it just for you, Jordan. Have some Rannells!

Thanks for the reminder - just got tickets for the Friday night first preview.

Has anyone done "standing room" for this? Is it a super awkward experience?

Andrew Rannells mentioned in a recent interview that he's signed on for "nine more months," which I believe means he signed a one-year contract and will leave in March. Not sure about Josh, Nikki or Rory.

Wow, such bad timing for those who waited in line all those hours.

Possible, but the cancellation tickets probably won't happen then. Best to just get there early and camp out for SRO while also trying lottery.

Ugh. Well. I'll just continue to try the lottery for the next 20 years. And - I know this will amount to nothing - but... if someone needs a plus one, I can offer SRO price and a whole lot of Book of Mormon fangirling.

He's gonna be in the new Judd Apatow/Lena Dunham HBO series "Girls." So excited!

Oh god. I entered like 15 times at the theater and checked in on Foursquare and everything... no e-mail. Hate life.

Trey did say in a recent interview with the New York Times that he and Matt are definitely planning to write/compose more original musicals. I would not be surprised at all if the success of Mormon signals their full transition from television to theater.

Too bad Chris Rock doesn't know anything about musicals. He would be a killer host. The "I remember the first musical I saw like it was yesterday - because it WAS yesterday" bit was great.
