I've heard GBS, so I know the LYRICS are funny, but I had no idea what he did half the time except for what I've seen of rehearsal video and those old clips that used to be up on the Old Globe site.
"Get me a posse n' sh*t, aiight?"
Bwahaha.
Yep, all that stuff. And just.... gah, I can't even explain it. He has so much rhythm!

hm...favorite parts. all of his scenes with John were great. At the show i went to he was ad-libbing all over the place. it was so funny. during one song of john's he did this motion that was really odd. it looked like he was flapping his arms. so, norbert, being his amazing self, mimics that exact movement and runs around the stage doing it in the next scene. it was so priceless. then he kept doing ad-libs making fun of some of sherie's lines. it was so great.
How do you know they were ad-libs?
That's one thing about this show.. I shouldn't wish for them to mess up or have something go wrong, but I almost want that to happen when I see this show so I can see them all improv.
ponine, did the French guy's lighter light in that scene he has with Muriel? It didn't when I was there, and I thought Gregory Jbara was adlibbing, but I could be wrong. He's wonderful!

yeah the lighter did light when i was there.
"How do you know they were ad-libs?"
oh you could tell. sherie was about to crack up and so was john. they had to turn away for a moment.
It's nice to know Norbert's livin' up the fact that he can adlib now without it seeming out of place. Good for him.

I love that headshot. His smile and laugh just make me all giddy and swoony. It's ridiculous.

that's always a good solution!! lol.
Exactly! Always blame the guy... even if he doesn't know you exist. LOL
Broadway Legend Joined: 10/4/03
hahahah. even if he does know you exist!
*Giggles* Indeed. But it's even better since, at the moment, Norbert has no idea I even exist. So I can.. uh.. get away with it? I guess?
Okay, I'm done babbling.
