My "Friday night" is Monday night, since Ivan's off Tuesday and Wednesday.
how the ____are you guys?
We can't say farted?
LOL
Ivan and I are making cookies tonight, after our nap, because I am exhausted!
And we need to catch up on all our Tivo stuff.
Marriage life is so exciting!
My family is opening presents tonight. I love presents, but not doing it on Christmas (or at least Christmas Eve) seems so anticlimactic.
However, I'm seeing Sweeney in two hours, and I just saw my favorite not-famous-enough singer on TV, so it's a good night.

Back from seeing Sweeney Todd and all I can say is Wow.
Sweeney Todd(Johnny Depp)-He really surprised me with his performance. Very strong and convincing. And is voice was very Good.
Mrs. Lovett(Helena Bohnam Carter) -Very impressed by her portrayal of Mrs. Lovett, worked well with Johnny Depp on screen together.
Judge Turpin(Alan Rickman)-Supurb performance and evil as ever.And his voice surprised me somewhat.
Anthony(Jamie Campbell Bower)-OMG he was hot and his voice was beautiful. Very well cast.
Toby(Ed Sanders)-This kids voice was tremendous and whenever he was on screen he lit up the screen. Could be a star in the making.
I also loved the staging of the final scene right before the credits rolled.

I didn't give away anything really or at least I don't see that I did. I was just expressing how I enjoyed the certain portrayals of certain characters. As for the final scene I did not go into detail of how it was done, just my opinion that it was well done.
What spoiler?
ETA: How was the crowd? My theatre was packed!

Dear Linnie:
Go to sleep.

The crowd was surprisingly low in my opinion. I went to the 5:20 p.m. showing so maybe people were coming home from work at that time. I expect it to be packed for the evening showings.

DGG, It is I who tell you to go to bed, daughter!
Sorry, I didn't read your post, Broadway bound, all i did was see that it was about Sweeney and averted my eyes for the rest of it. Apologies.
It's not out here yet.
Today was very interesting, anyone wanna recap for soapy?

Yeah, but it's bot even 9pm here. So there, Dad!
It's not out yet? Ugh! I can't wait to see it this week...woo!Hopefully, anyway...
We had a packed auditorium.
Two girls even dressed up! One was Sweeney and the other was Lovett. I wanted their picture, but Ivan vetoed my decision.

linnie-no problem at all.
Why should we recap Soapy's day?
Broadway Legend Joined: 6/19/06
Apparently, it's not out for another month here, DGG!
Another month for me to realise that premonition of mine...!

Yay awsomeness! So was DGG's day.
Hey kids! Is it worth reading back?
mateo, congrats on the new thread!
So I watched SWEENEY today... meh.
Not especially. I didn't post much today, so it's probably not very interesting.
Leaving to see Sweeney now, see y'all later!
