I must say my castmates and I were surprised to see our Milky White had made the list, but still got a good laugh out of it of course. We had the pleasure of getting the "stunt double" cow from the 2002 revival. It just didn't have the animatronic elements.

It's been great seeing Seattle actors making their Broadway debuts recently. First Eric Ankrim in FIRST DATE and now Aaron Finley! He's been a local favorite since his big break in Brian Yorkey's "Jesus Christ Superstar" a couple years ago. Broadway has got a new leading man who will not disappoint!

Here's a behind the scenes feature from our local news station. It has a bit of a montage of the show.

Does anyone know where I could get sheet music for "Never Say Goodbye" from A Tale of Two Cities? I can't seem to find it anywhere.

For closing night of "Catch Me if You Can" in Seattle, I had a lovely experience with Karl Warden. He had been carrying out all his stuff from his dressing room but put it down to sign autographs and take pictures, and finally picked it all back up to leave. I had missed him but figured I'd let him go since his hands were full, but as he stepped out he saw me and said, "Oh did I miss you?" He set down all his stuff and graciously signed my Playbill and posed for a picture. It was quite nice o...

Not exactly a prop, but I have a box of used microphone batteries from ALADDIN at the 5th Avenue Theatre in Seattle. I also have a piece of "Sherry" sheet music from JERSEY BOYS autographed by Frankie Valli.

The audition notice just went up. It says "ALL ETHNICITIES ENCOURAGED TO AUDITION". It seems like they're going to be pulling from the Seattle talent, but knowing the 5th Avenue, they'll have some "big names" too. The notice includes roles for some new characters: BABKAK – 20s, chubby, romantic desert dweller, part of Aladdin’s band; the “Crosby” of this Arabian “Road” picture, although perhaps with a bit more flair OMAR – 20s, nervous, diminutive desert dweller, part of Aladdin’s band; the “...

*SPOILERS* I loved the Seattle production. In fact, I saw it 3 times. The show was supposed to be presented like a TV special. "The Frank Abagnale Jr. Show" or something like that... including an onstage band and a sing-along session where you followed the bouncing ball. I felt that the "TV" concept was lost after the opening number. The set was very plain, aside from the wavy bandstand. A projected background was used in about every scene, and new set pieces of all shapes and sizes would be ...

The 5th Avenue's official YouTube channel used to have videos from their "Spotlight Night", which is what peerrjb is probably referring to. There were also a few clips from the show itself. It's a shame that they took them down.

www.5thavenue.org/interactive/ There's a music player at the bottom of the page that includes a few songs. Tracks 2. Live in Living Color 9. Someone Else's Skin 15. Goodbye (unfortunately not sung by Aaron Tveit) 19. Jet Set You can also find Kerry Butler singing "Fly, Fly Away" on YouTube

One of my favorites is the Candide Overture

I've got a Forbidden Broadway station going right now. An a cappella version of "You Can't Stop the Beat" by Toxic Audio came on. Wasn't fan... But I did sort of like the next song that came up. It was a group arrangement of "Maria" but I missed the band. What songs did you get?

Sounds pretty great! If they reach $30,000 they'll make a 2nd album of live performances. http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/511475076/help-kerrigan-lowdermilk-make-the-best-album-ever

I really wasn't up to watching the whole video... Instead I read the YouTube comments where everyone seemed to be raving about him. All I could say was "really?" Glad to know I'm not the only one.

You can hear previews for all the songs on iTunes now.

It's on in Seattle too! Channel 9

Tonight I told Keaton Whittaker she could have my milkshake refill tin if she wanted it. She said something along the lines of "Really? You're so nice!"

First thought: My gosh Aaron Tveit is hot with that new hair.

I'm pretty sure the very first cast recording in my house was highlights from Miss Saigon, but I wasn't supposed to listen to it... The first one that I was able to call my own was Cats OBC.

How often do community college transfer students seem to get into BFA programs? I'll have my AA soon, but is transferring sort of a hopeless cause for me? I never hear anything about this kind of transfer.
