Did everyone read the NY Times article today--Ben Brantley mentions Norbert several times and cites him as one performer on B'way today (along with Kristin, a few others) who can still have great performances without succumbing to "American Idol" vocal theatrics. It's clear he really thinks alot of Norbert.

(P.S. More Norbert tidbits, please!)

It doesn't surprise me that he could ride a horse. But quite frankly, it's the holding on that's the tricky part. Trust me, I speak from experience.

Hmm Nother Norb tidbit- His younger brother Jim is also an actor ( presently in St Louis Rep in Lobby Hero) and Norb wants them to work together in something. Hey another set of theatre siblings! Looks like the Foster's may have competion!

I was wandering around Michael Cerveris' website and came across a video of Sherie, Norb, Michael, and two other folks singing "Suite: Judy Blue Eyes". Michael plays the guitar, Norbert plays the uh, tamborine!

ETA: Whoopsie, I forgot to post the link...

*bump*

Norb deserves to be on the first page! I just watched the That's Kentertainment episode of DRS and I'm so excited to see it (hopefully, if everything works out...)! I leave tonight for NYC! I've been squealing all day, I just can't help it! Okay, I just felt the need to pop in to say hi, but now I really need to finish packing! I'm such a slacker...

TAMBOURINE?!

I LOVE MEN WHO PLAY THE TAMBOURINE!

[Chrysanthemum62001]

YAY!!! Welcome to New York! *sings "Not For the Life of Me" for you* I hope you have a fantasmagorical trip!

*snort*

The tambourine is all right, I guess. I'm partial to men who can play the guitar, myself...

Have a great trip, only!

Pft. Ooooooobviously I love guitar players too. AND men who play the harmonica. And dance... real dance and pretend dance.

[Chrysanthemum62001]

Posted: 3/28/05 at 6:11pm

The harmonica? Alrighty! I'm not even gonna ask...

[luvtheEmcee]

Posted: 3/28/05 at 6:12pm

I kid you not. He OWNED that thing, too.

Well, not really. He thought he did, though.

LMAO!

I'm sure he did!

Now I have this crazy picture in my head of Adam sportin' the sparkly pants and goin to town on a harmonica.

[luvtheEmcee]

Posted: 3/28/05 at 6:15pm

haha, thankfully the pants and the harmonic did not appear together... I think.

... I hope.

I think I just passed out.

Add in our favorite El Cubano, and I'm so there. Harmonica and all...

Just finished The Last 5 Years recording again. Even though I already heard it I still get tears in my eyes during the last last song.

Hey y'all,

I'm back home from vacation. I was down in central Florida, visiting my sister's family. Good times at the beach.

FYI, a Norbert fan posted this link on LJ and I'm bringing it over here. An article on Norbert's brother Jim (with a cute pic!)

Aaaaaaaaaaa! You're back!!!!! Yee ha! I've missed you!!!


ETA: Thanks for the article! That was precious. I must say, I was very curious about him. He's got the same eyes as Norb has. I bet his sparkle on stage too.

This is a great article...sounds like a nice family. No wonder everyone who works with , or watches, Norbs perform sings his praises.

[broadway betty]

Posted: 3/29/05 at 2:46pm

YAY!!! Alejandra, I missed you, too!

I'm so happy that DRS is doing so well at the box office. Norbert is packing the house, I love it!

[Alejandra925]

Posted: 3/29/05 at 4:15pm

Awww, Chrys and bb, I missed you guys too! :) It was hard being out of the loop.

Norb's family sounds very nice and close knit. His brother is freakin' adorable. I liked how they mentioned that Norb is the best singer of all!

The full segment of Ken's Entertainment's coverage of DRS opening night has been posted. Adam Pascal is among those briefly interviewed. :)

Alejandra-Thanks for the article on Norbert's brother! He's a cutie! Kinda reminds me of Patrick Wilson.

With Norbs being so funny in DRS, I kinda forgot how heavenly his voice is. *listens to lovely Norbert medely*

NORBERT-I need more music!!! You seriously need your own solo cd!

[Chrysanthemum62001]

Posted: 3/30/05 at 4:40pm

I agree! But, when would he have time?!
