I did this show several years ago. It's a great piece, but a very long night at the theater (3 acts, lots of dialogue). The basic plot is two students decide to murder a friend of theirs and hide the body in a steamer trunk in their living room. They then invite a relative of the dead boy, a few friends, and their old professor over for the evening. Through the course of the play, they drop clues about what they've done and the suspense is wondering if they're going to get caught. As for the ...

If I remember correctly, it was released initially in the early 90's and then rereleased in the last few years. I know the booklets are different between the two (long story as to why I have/had both versions). No difference in performances or track listing. Anyway, I recommend getting the disc. It's got some really nice music in it and is well-worth checking out.

Good for NPH. Doesn't change the fact that his scenes in "Harold and Kumar Go To White Castle" are hysterical!

J.Mark McVey was the best I've seen, although I really liked Jason Kraake(sp) who I saw as an understudy last year.

"I knew a girl who played her "Lennon" bootleg backwards and it said "I buried Paul." And then she died." That's damn funny!

I hate both of them equally.

Yech. Like it or not, it needs no more explanation than that.

I once worked with a girl who felt that because her character was abused as a child, she would probably be a "cutter" and would show up at rehearsals in bloody bandages. No lie. Since then, I've tried to stay clear of actors who "live the part".

"On a similar note, what is the highest note done in a male's chest voice on a cast recording? What is the lowest note?" Not sure on the lowest, but I'd say Philip Casnoff has to be one of the highest. He's hitting and holding a High C at the end of "Pity The Child" and, unless I'm mistaken, that's all chest voice.

I think he's amazingly overrated as Valjean and as a performer. Hopefully, he stays far away from the revival.

They'd have been better off making "Interview with the Vampire: The Musical".

Actually, the walk over hasn't been that bad (with one or two exceptions). Even on their "bad" days, they're still the best thing on the air. It'll be great to hear Lynch back on the show. Hopefully, he's had time to write a few new songs...

"Booth has his own segment and then sort of acts as a constant presence pushing the others to carry through with their attempts. " Having played Booth, I have to disagree with that. Booth does have the biggest role of all the Assassins, but he's hardly a presence in the show after "The Gun Song". He returns towards the end and, as far as the script goes, is directly responsible for convincing Oswald to shoot JFK, but there is at least a half hour that Booth is completely not a part of.

"What happened was Howard kept singing and forgot the song cut to a new section" Actually, if you listen to it again (everyone taped it, right? you can hear two measures at the beginning that appeared to be an intro, but should have been the start of the song. If McGillin had started singing immediately, everything would've fit fine. The fact that he came in two measures late meant that the music changed while Howard was still trying to sing the verse. Just clarifying that it wasn't a case of...

I thought they were opening the show with Michael J. Fox the way he was shaking around out there. Terrible.

I just hope they have a non-Equity casting call

Any thoughts about Hugh going back to Les Mis at some point? Obviously, not as Marius, but what do you think about him as Valjean? He could certainly sing the role. Oh, to answer a question from before, Gregg Edelman definitely played Javert on Broadway in the early to mid-90s (1992-1995, somewhere in there).

The finale was performed live with clips of a few of the songs preceding it. The only song clip I remember is "If I Can't Love Her", but I'm sure "Be Our Guest" and "Belle" were in there somewhere.

The scene with this lyric is right after "Stars". Gavroche sings quickly and then this scene... E: My God. What a rumpus! M: That girl who can she be? E: That cop, he'd like to jump us. But he ain't smart, not he. M: Eponine, who was that girl. E: Some bourgeoise two-a-penny thing. M: Eponine, find her for me. E: What will you give me? M: Anything! E: Got you all excited now, but God knows what you see in her. Aren't you all delighted now? No, I don't want your money, sir. M: Eponine, do this...
