- If Adam Pascal offered to give you a private concert (slim chances don't necessarily mean nonexistent! ), what would you want him to sing?
"Cellophane Sun" would be my top request.
- What's your favorite classic musical?
Probably West Side Story, if that qualifies as classic.
- Favorite straight play?
I saw an English company do Hamlet when I was a pre-teen, and it left a huge impression on me. That will always be my favorite.
- In general, do you prefer comedy or tragedy?
When I was young I preferred tragedy, but as I get older comedy gets more and more attractive.
- You mentioned that you read Agatha Christie. Do you have a favorite of her books? Miss Marple or Hercule Poirot?
I think Murder in Retrospect (with Poirot) is one of her best. Overall I prefer Miss Marple though.
And finally, something silly: Which of Adam Pascal's outfits do you find the most...er...memorable?
The words "Adam Pascal" and "outfits" just automatically conjure up the sparkly pants, don't they? But I think he looks great in a T-shirt and jeans.

Though, in the recent revival, when the daughter who wants to marry the Russian tells Tevye, who says no, and the company dances between them singing Tradition.
DAMN! I was sobbing!

Questions...
You've mentioned you like the direction that Adam Pascal's going in his music. How would you articulate the change, and what do you like about it? [can you tell I've been busy writing open-ended questions for lit class?]
How did you get to go the Rent symphony space Q&A? Was it awesome?
What gave you a love of theater?

I cried at the WRONG part of The History Boys, that's what makes it awful.

You've mentioned you like the direction that Adam Pascal's going in his music. How would you articulate the change, and what do you like about it?
I feel that his songs are becoming more and more personal and expressive of what's inside him, and less reliant on his influences. This makes for better songs and ones he performs with a great deal of passion.
How did you get to go the Rent symphony space Q&A? Was it awesome?
It was a benefit for Friends in Deed, so it was just a matter of coming up with the cash before it sold out. There was a screening of Rent first, and the Q&A came after. It was very enjoyable - much funnier than I expected.
What gave you a love of theater?
I'm really not sure. I've been attracted to the performing arts my whole life but can't pinpoint where that comes from. I did a little bit of theater in school, but never had a real ambition to perform myself. I just don't know.

Skittles, thanks, I'm really looking forward to it too.
Rath - thank you! It's been fun.

I cried at the end too, but that was at the right time

My "new usual" questions:
What is your favorite role you'd one day like to play (soon as you get cast on Broadway)?
Which is your favorite Broadway songwriter/songwriter team?
What do you do first when you wake up in the morning? ("getting up" doesn't count)
If you were given the power, which past Broadway production would you undo so it never could have happened?
Enjoy your day!
