Profile for Sillyism

Hairspray. The tour came through here before I had been formally itroduced to musicals. Yes, I know, that wasn't too long ago, but thank god I know musicals now. Im a HUGE fan of fun shows, it doesn't have to be all sad and dramatic for me. Wah.

The Guilty Ones- Spring Awakening Touch Me -Spring Awakening Getting Married Today- Company My New Philosophy- You're a Good Man Charlie Brown The Wizard and I (Shoshana Bean-ified)- Wicked

Last year during our performance of Cinderella for an elementary school, somehow the Windows tune (ya know that little tune that plays when you turn on your computer) Came on through the speakers instead of the magical sound, right as the Fairy Godmother made her first entrance. Oh good times.

In Wicked, I LOVE in Defying Gravity when Elphaba and Glinda are singing together " I really hope you get it, and you don't live to regeret it." AH! It gives me chills. I also chuckle when Rod is singing "My Girlfried, who lives in Canada" in Avenue Q when Rod goes "...And sucks like a hoover" and he does that little laugh. LOVE IT.

Megan Hilty and Shoshana Bean. Holler at them.

mejusthavingfun- What you said about Elphabas silhouette during the opening song "No One Mourns the Wicked." I only noticed it the second time I saw it and got MAJOR chills. I *LOVE* that part. It's just so... Powerful, to me I guess. I don't know. AH! When I saw it a third time I practically ripped my friends arm off with excitment.

For Good and Defying Gravity- Wicked The Past is Another Land and Enchantment Passing Through (Reprise)-AIDA A bit of Earth- Secret Garden Astonishing- Little Women Somewhere- West Side Story Electricity- Billy Elliot Say it Somwehow and Dividing Day- Light in the Piazza On the Street where you live- My Fair Lady *swoon* Those are a few that come to mind.

*Rocks back and forth in corner* Idina will play Glinda...I know it. *Mumbles* Don't tell me otherwise...the rumors are true, I tell you... TRUE! Ya know, I felt like some nerdy-star-trek-fan-gone-wicked-fan when saying that. IM WEIRD!

I hate those poeple that have to be the last person to clap. I mean WTF. Is there some competition Im not aware of? I also hate when people are like "Where has musical theater gone?" When talking about Wicked or some of the newer shows. I mean, I know everyone has their own opinions about it but come on, not all of us are old enough to know what theater "use" to be. Obviously, I adore Wicked and am proud to say it...*Ducks possible flying objects*

I was lucky enough to see the show in New York and Seattle with both Megan and Shoshana, and I thought they were absolutely superb both times. I was so excited when I heared that Shoshana and Megan would be coming here to play the roles, and I was FAR from dissapointed. Personally, I thought the riffs were okay. They didn't distract me from the tune of the song at all. And, Megan *Squeals* her voice was BEAUTIFUL and she had everyone laughing and clapping, as did Shoshana. Christopher Russo p...

Yeah, the ones on the main page are just models. In fact i think the Radames in the picture is Casey Elliot's u/s. The girl playing Aida, Marja Harmon, Is actually in her 20's its sad that she looks so much older. Honestly, Im just glad they aren't changing the songs. I think that is one of the best parts of the show and its gotten good reviews thus far, so im not too worried about the production as a whole.

The Sound of Music and The Phantom of the Opera. I like most of them, but those are my favorites.

Point of No Return- Pahntom of the Opera. Oh shnnnaaapppzzz...

HAHA. Love. This. Board.

WTF. I hope she pulls another SNL. Oh, if only I was in London to see that...

I have the CD and I can't get over the fact that the song "Different" is right before intermission. I mean is that true? Cause I've only heared that was the case. I mean the song before intermission should usually be a big fun song, or REALLY meaningful, something the gets the crowd going. I just can't see that song as making me get chills. I don't know about anyone else, but I want to be extremely anticipating the rest of the show just because of the pre-intermission song. Im in Seattle, so ...

""Anyway, my vote goes to...well, anything in "Carousel," but especially the whole of "June Is Bustin' Out All Over."" Oh God. Facepalm.

Bump.
