Hey everyone, My girlfriend Rosalie is one of 10 finalists in Canada for the Wicked-Week Contest! I'm really proud of her and a boyfriend's work is never done, that's why I'm asking for your support. It would mean a lot to us if you could vote for her at: www.wicked-week.com It only takes a minute to sign up, and it would make her so happy. You can also vote for a finalist in the Midwest and one in the East Coast. But when it comes to the Canadian finalist, if you could toss one for ROSALIE I...

...Show People is terrible at actually delivering my subscription to me. So I've not yet seen these! --M--

I've never sat here, what is the best/worst seats? What is the difference between the "orchestra" and the "floor seats"? Anyone seen this show? Can you give some advice? Thanks! --M--

Hey, You should check out Randolph Academy. Should fall in that price range, and it is a pretty good program. www.randolphacademy.com --M--

Planning another trip to NYC and I wanted opinions on what I should see when I'm there. So far, I want to catch The Light in the Piazza, Dirty Rotten Scoundrels, and maybe Spamalot. But I am there the whole week, so what else would you recommend. --M--

What do you guys think about the Lord of the Rings casting so far...? --Michael-- The story: Jul. 23, 2005. 08:23 AM Ring leaders revealed Toronto actors snag coveted roles in $27 million stage adaptation of J.R.R.

I've also not received my full subscription to Show People. And I DID complain. Three months later, still no issue replacement to speak of. Bastards... --M--

Yeah, I'll see it. I subscribe to every show the Mirvish theatre impressarios put on in Toronto, so I'll be there. This upcoming season looks to be a good one. Check it out. --M--

Anyone have any stories from their auditions they care to share? --M--

One ring to rule them all, I guess. Wow, at $27 million this is going to be huge. --M--

No Stephanie is not back yet, they say she'll be out for another week at least. --M--

Indeed... Overall, they have some work to do. Still, it should make for a good touring production once all the kinks are ironed out. --M--

The best part was when Elphaba cast her spell on Chistery during the show today and nothing happened. Poor bastard Peter John Chursin looked like a moron when his wings didn't expand. Everyone on stage kept going on with the text about Chistery's transformations... meanwhile nada. Yikes. All I could do was skake my head and sympathize... --M--

I doubt there will be a permanent production in Chicago, mainly because the show is booked for additional dates/cities. The Toronto production is nearly sold out and producer David Mirvish would love for nothing else than to keep a permanent production in Toronto past the date. The only reason he isn't is because the show is already booked for Chicago. Too bad, it is going to be a hit in Toronto and Chicago. --M--

Alas, the best through-composed musical NEVER to make it to Broadway was the initial version of Paul Gordon's JANE EYRE. This show was incredible in Toronto. Unfortunately, the revamped Broadway version didn't compare. --M--
