The Official Adam Pascal Love Thread, part 14, version 2.0 — Page 193

Akitarent's first thread got deleted, but in that one, he said Anthony told the audience it was highly likely. Then he twisted it when he reposted the information. So no, it's not set in stone yet. But at this point, it's probably pretty certain.

My feelings on it are mixed. Obviously, if they go, I wouldn't miss seeing them again for the world. And there are enough tour stops within driving distance that I'd be able to go. But... I feel like if it's going to end, it just needs to end. I just need it to be over already. Not this, "Rent is closing, but, there's still this one thing more..." stuff. Seeing them again would be great, and people all over the country will have the chance to witness the magic we did this summer, but at the same time, I feel like it'll just prolong the sadness. Closing will be sad, of course, but then with this yet to come, we'll just be waiting, anticipating the real ending. And that's selfish, I know, but hopefully it makes at least a little bit of sense. I'm a person who does well with closure.

Yeah. I mean, I would love for Rent to stay open a while longer; it's not that I want it to close. Nor am I saying all touring productions should stop and the show shouldn't live on in one form or another. It's just that if it's going to come to an end the way I know it, it might just be harder to still have one more little thing to go before it all ends. Then you're just waiting for it.

I'm well, brina, thanks for asking! Did you omit a word? I doubt you ARE a Shakespeare play, so I'm hoping it is IN a play, so tell us some details!

I'm 50/50 on the tour. More than me getting to see it again, I would be happy others would get to share in the magic. But then again, if Adam is going to devote that time to something, I'd rather it be something stationary in NYC that gives him a chance to do something different, but well, plaid pants how can I complain?

Thanks for the update skittles, I kind of figured that the one in June wouldn't include A&A but would be the non-equity one instead. I'm still a bit iffy about getting tickets in June though. I know this will sound very strange to the New Yorker's on here, but I normally prefer to see a show once; I feel that if I see something more than that it may ruin the effect of the piece or not have as strong of an impact. But that's just my two cents.

And yes Tink, I did omit a few words! Actually, more than a few words more like 3 monologues and a page and a half of random b!tching I played the Lady Abbess in The Comedy of Errors, and we set the play in a Casablanca like 40's film noire. Everyone wore fedoras and cool trench coats, and I got to look like a nifty friar! It went so well, and the last two nights we performed for a full house. So Shakespeare and school have basically been my life for the past 2 months, fun stuff!

Eh, there are also enough people out that there for whom the tour won't be "good enough". They couldn't make it to NYC to see Adam, but these are the same people that whine about how they CAN'T see the Rent tour, because they live in Dayton and the tour is only stopping in Cleveland, Cincinnati and Columbus. Or Adam and Anthony are SO IMPORTANT to them, but they couldn't make the 2-hour drive from Wilkes-Barre to NYC at any point this summer. Until Adam and Anthony perform Rent in the backyard of every single fan, they won't be satisfied with the conclusion.

I have a feeling the "all-star cast" will be very similar to the one on Broadway now.

I'm excited to see if Adam and Anthony decide to do the tour. i think it would be a good opportunity for those who couldnt travel to New York to see them earlier and i think a lot of their fans would appreciate it. i am going to see the tour in May so i hope it is a good cast...does anyone think the tour cast is good enough for me to drive 6 hours to see? i've heard that they are, i just wanted some more opinions...:)

ETA- Hmm. It seems like the blog this was on has been deleted since I posted the picture.

hmmm, with the scruff, dark hair, and black button down - he looks similar to Chess days, and that makes me a happy Tink! But boo for that jacket making appearances again, lol!

He just wants us to remember who he is. The jacket is more memorable than any of his recent career accomplishments, so this is as good a way as any.

I am very fond of that jacket.
he's looking good, thanks for the photo...
