Hi Deet and Polly!
Phew, torture is over. The only good kids in the production were Rizzo, Danny, Jan, and Doody.

I played Vince Fontaine in GREASE years ago - I had a lot of fun with the role because I was cast way against type but I was still able to make it work. I got to do some real cool things with my voice that I knew I could do but hadn't ever done before. But the production, sadly, sucked. The director, well...
Cheyenne Jackson tickled me. AFTER ordering SoMMS a drink but NOT tickling him, and hanging out with Girly in his dressing room (where he DIDN'T tickle her) but BEFORE we got married. To others. And then he tweeted Boobs. He also tweeted he's good friends with some chick on "The Voice" who just happens to be good friends with Tink's ex. And I'm still married. Oh, and this just in: "Pettiness, spite, malice ....Such ugly emotions... So sad." - After Eight, talking about MEEEEEEEE!!! I'm so honored! :-)

Our Vince was excellent, but he didn't have any singing parts. He was just a man whore, which was hysterical. Don't you hate bad directors? I always get pissy when I feel that we could be changing stuff for the better, and the director won't let us.

Bad directors are a pain, but it's even worse to have a director who's a pain in the ass.

This director just had no vision - she let the entire cast mimic the movie. She would have been fine if I'd done that too, but as I am no Edd Byrnes by any stretch of the imagination I couldn't have done that even if I wanted to. I played him very suave and Noel Cowardish, almost like Addison DeWitt in ALL ABOUT EVE. It was strange, but it worked.

That's cool! Our show started rehearsals right arounf the time that that Grease casting show was on TV. We were forbidden to watch it, which really helped. Of course, most people did want to mimic the movie, but we had a couple of free spirits in the cast to spice it up.

I think it's very difficult for some people to do a character that is so well known (like the characters from Grease are) and bring something original to it. Even if they don't mean to, that famous person who has done it, & done it well, is always in the back of their heads and they subconsciously attempt to imitate that

I have worked with the real-life equivalent of Corky from Waiting for Guffman. It was hideous and amazing at the same time.

There's also that terribly narrow mindset that audiences bring into well known shows that if it isn't a carbon copy of what they're familiar with, it isn't good. An argument that I have no patience for.
And with that pronouncement, I'm off to bed. Night, Avs! Sweet dreams.

I just spent the last 20 minutes trying to lock my front door. The humidity made the wood swell so much, that it wouldn't lock into place. There was no way I ws going to sleep without it locked. I finally got it.... but I'm sure my downstairs neighbor was none too thrilled with the noise I was making at this late hour.
Hope everyone had as nice an evening as I did (lock problem being the exception)

If either of them are anything like Ben-Gay keep them away from my crotch! I learned THAT lesson at a young age.
