-Back in October, towards the end of WOTV Laura went up to Patti and said "we haven't met, I'm Candela" after a long amount of laughter from the audience. It's in the text. A really funny moment, though. When I saw WOTV for a second time in December, there were a few prop malfunctions. The first one happened with the blender stand, once Sherie removed the glass part and put it in the freezer, the stand wouldn't stop blending. Laura just kept going "Stop the blending, make it stop blending, it...

On a sidebar...I'm still wondering how FINIAN'S RAINBOW, which played to fuller houses and higher grosses than AMERICAN IDIOT, closed after 110 performances while AMERICAN IDIOT, barely breaking 50% and having somewhat low grosses, is continuing to run? They have the power (and probably the money) of Green Day behind them

Brian did the same note when he went on for Gabe. Didn't Tom Kitt say he added it to the score in some interview recently?

Apparently she injured herself pretty early on and hasn't been able to perform. Hopefully she'll be able to perform Sunday, I loved her when I saw the show in November and missed her when I saw it again earlier this month.

Ben went on for Tunny during the later half of Stark's vacation... Just a minor correction, Ben went on the Saturday before Stark's vacation and then he went on the Sunday of Stark's vacation. Just a tiny little thing. I haven't been to the show since December 11th when Libby was on for Extraordinary Girl. I hope to catch Jeanna soon, though, and I'm already planning on seeing Andrew Call as St. Jimmy in January.

Apparently Mikey Winslow will be joining the cast as a swing once West Side Story closes. And there's apparently a girl from WSS who will be a swing as well. Also, Chase Peacock is now a St. Jimmy understudy and will probably be going on during Billie's week off in February.

Go mezzanine.

They added a few-rather ridiculous sounding-lines to the show, but it doesn't really make it a lesser show. The staging is basically the same except the downstage scaffolding isn't connected to the boxes, they're just towers on the sides of the stage. I second bwayphreak, the tour is WONDERFUL. A really strong cast through and through, some of the best original cast members, the absolute best replacement (save for one), and a really nice mixture of new cast members. Definitely go see it!

Oh wow, my mistake. Sorry about that.

^ Which matinee? The December 11th matinee? I think tomorrow. I'm not 100% on that, she posted the dates on her Facebook. I'm not friends with her though, but I'm pretty sure my friend told me she was on tomorrow afternoon. She's definitely on the matinee on the 11th, though.

And Rachel Bay Jones will be on at the matinee, I believe.

I did rush last Saturday matinee and got AA104 at 1pm.

I'll take it.

I was at the show last night and was thoroughly impressed by Adam and Brian. Brian was vocally superior to Kyle in every single respect. It WAS rather hard to hear him during group songs, his mic just seemed to be turned down much lower than everyone else's. Adam was phenomenal. A wonderful performance.

So.. There must be another reading of Bare coming up, because Andy Mientus updated his fan Facebook today to say he was doing "a reading of a VERY exciting new project (a hint: it's another boarding school musical)". Aaron Riesebeck, who was also in Academy, commented and confirmed that Andy will be playing Peter, and Corey Boardman will be Matt. No word on who might be playing Jason or any other casting. He deleted the facebook status earlier today.

I've heard from a lot of people that Andrew has Tuesday-Thursday (maybe Friday?) and then Josh Kobak will be on this weekend.

This was my first year going, it was a blast. My favorite purchase was the Gypsy revival opening night gift which is a sterling silver fortune cookie that opens up and has a fortune reading "Everything's coming up roses." $10.

I heard that Katie Kiyan is doing the tour, too. She is. She's Crissy. Steel Burkhardt is almost definitely Berger, Paris Remillard is Claude, and Matt Deangelis will be Woof. John Moauro is also going on tour.

Lady Gaga- The Fame Wasn't aware this was a cast album.

Hunter was my favorite Melchior acting-wise. Vocally, he wasn't the strongest, but he acted the hell out of the role even with his voice on rapid decline. I sat next to him onstage for his "first" performance on 8/18 and he was phenomenal that night. Hi "Mirror Blue Night" that evening was the best I've ever heard.
