The italian Edna Tonnarelli looks like Liam Kyle Sullivan in the "Muffins" video. Hah, Mateo, you definitely aren't the only one who thought that. I seriously looked at that and that was the FIRST thing that popped into my head.

I absolutely love dancing around my room to "Sugar" from Tick Tick Boom...

I'm actually in a class right now on the development of Western theatre in the 19th and 20th century, and I'm LOVING a lot of stuff we're reading. Really anything by Brecht (especially Caucasian Chalk Circle and Galileo) is just...amazing. Not to mention essential if you want to know the major theoretical ideas floating around the theatre at the time. In fact, if you want, read Antonin Artaud's "the Theater and its Double" if you want some great theories (completely opposite from Brecht's) on...

Go see the original cast of Spelling Bee. No contest. While I love Wicked, I felt myself a bit disappointed seeing the LA cast, as opposed to when I saw it on tour with Julia Murney. Wicked will be around a long time (and in a bunch of locations), but you're really going to only get this one chance to see the original cast come back to Spelling Bee.

I agree with those who have said not to act drunk, but act trying to show that you're sober. Think about it. When you're drunk, most of your time is spent trying to convince both yourself and others that you aren't as drunk as you are, and that is usually what results in the things you find funny later (trying to stand up and wobbling). When you're drunk, you're trying to play off sobriety, so you really need to concentrate on that element of it while on stage.

Man, I flipped out when I saw this video was on Broadway.com I didn't think I could love Julia any more than I already did....but I believe this video completely disproved that theory. Is it bad that I spent most of that video scanning her dressing room for the few little trinkets I gave her at the stagedoor one time?

I definitely agree with those who mentioned CHESS and LENNON.

Ahhh god, like everyone else on this thread, I am having SUCH a hard time deciding between Brian and Raul on this! They're both in my top list of leading men, and god...I love Raul so much and he'd be amazing in the role, but when I first heard about the workshop cast, I was so so so so excited to hear that Brian would be Fronkensteen. It just....clicked so much, and my head instantly went "PERFECT CASTING, PERFECT CASTING!" And now...I really can't think of anyone else doing it, as much as I...

Here's one from today... When you're in a class on medieval women, and when your professor says something like "and the women would be responsible for taking the animals to market.." and all you can hear in your head is "Listen well, son, Milky White must be taken to market" "But Mother, no! He's the best cow!" And another one, we were talking about barbers in Victorian times...yeah that led pretty easily to thoughts about Sweeney.

Yeah, it goes without saying, but I couldn't resist.

Wow, I'm surprised this hasn't been deleted yet, considering the original poster mentioned that they had a bootleg...

I have a few different things that I do with my Playbills. For the playbills that I've collected, and are not actually from shows I've seen, I put in the Playbill binder with the plastic sleeves. It actually works perfectly, and since I'm in a dorm room and can't do a huge wall display, saves me lots of space. For the playbills I've saved from shows I've seen, however, I have a scrapbook that I started last year for my theatre experiences. For each time I went to see a show, I have a layout t...

Going along with this topic, does anyone have any suggestions for storing older playbills? I have a few vintage playbills (Gypsy, Funny Girl, etc.), and because they are a different size than playbills with the contemporary design, they do not fit in either the plastic sleeves that go along with the Playbill binder or the Playbill frame. Are there any binders specifically made for these vintage playbills?

I have to say that the Leaf Coneybear one is possibly THE cutest thing I've ever seen. The Black Knight is also freakin' hilarious.

Sorry, double post.

Actually, there's a pretty funny interview with Bill Lawrence, the creator of Scrubs, about the musical episode, in which it says a little about Sarah Chalke. I definitely giggled a bit after reading this, having seen Sarah perform in the episode. http://community.tvguide.com/thread.jspa?threadID=800004844

I believe that there was a professional-style recording made, but it was never officially released. Shame, too. The movie's so wonderful. Gotta love me some Ana singing "The Stuff".

I'm not sure what she's officially considered, but I know the woman has an INCREDIBLE range. She does a lot of stuff in the soprano range, but then she can completely turn around and BLOW YOU AWAY with some really low songs (i.e. a lot of stuff on her solo album). I think her insane range is one of the things that make her such an amazing performer. She has very little limits.
