Em, I never really understood your thing for arms until last night. I saw some awesome arms

My guy friend that I kinda like and have been having this weird are we or aren't we relationship for almost a year. But I haven't seen him in a month and he's been working out for baseball, and I was quite impressed.

I did catch that segment, Emcee. Very glad I did, too.

That's great you've found arms worthy of appreciation, Sarah. I'm all for spring sports

=) What a nice thing to open the thread and find!! wifebeater pic, yay!! =)

I really liked it. Much funnier than I thought it would be (i want that damn teddy bear, lol!). Marc made for one hot pirate! What did you think?

What a beautiful day it was to be walking around NYC!

I thought it was alright. It's such a fun, silly show, but it wasn't as funny as I remembered it being. I was in a production when I was twelve (yes, seriously -- my teacher was pretty much insane) and we had such a blast with it, and then I saw a production off-Broadway a few years after that, and I remember that one being much funnier than the NYCO one is. I think it might have to do with the fact that the one I'd seen prior was put on by a group who does Gilbert and Sullivan works in rep... I think they were (are?) called The New York Gilbert and Sullivan Players. But anyway, these people *really* knew how to act this stuff and go for the comedy. The opera singers, while wonderful, really felt like they were just singing (to me, anyway), and relying on the text to carry itself, which isn't nearly as hilarious as it could be. I thought both Kudisch (whom I adore and think absolutely sublime) and Jacoby were fantastic, each perfectly cast and absolutely the highlights. I had fun, but I was just a little bit disappointed.

Oh, I didnt know it was a love knot, thanks.

He's not irish at all tho, is he?

---

definetly not (my stepfather has one and he's Sicilian), I was just asking because one of my friends is Irish and Jewish and he's the only one I know. So now he remains the only one I know :o)

re Gilbert and Sullivan - I was suprised that NYCO did the production. I was debating whether or not to see it - do you think its worth seeing? I'm not that crazy about the music, and someone in the ensemble said the production was a little "busy" - whatever that means.

---

That's true. I thought their putting on Pirates was so random this year!

---

Yeah, its another Adam mystery for us to ponder. :)

---

Em - this was my first intro to Pirates... and opera. I'm sure if I had seen other productions I may not have been taken the way as I was. I'm really glad I decided to go see it. I do agree with the singing though, other than the high notes, I could've forgotten I was at an "opera" altogether.

It's funny - I saw Bob Martin's last day in Drowsy - no curtain call speeches/flowers etc. I go see the final production Pirates, no hoopla for it ending, lol! For once I wan to see hoopla! :)

I'm glad you're production was a success Allie! Doesn't it feel strange when you've worked so hard on a production then 'poof!' its all done?
