I'm not sure if it would kill me or not, probably not.. I have a pretty severe reaction to it though.. It's just easier to avoid it. I'd rather not take my chances..

DW - search for it on amazon. Well worth the money, if you can. It's beautiful.

Em ~ just curious what about foods with milk cooked in it? those too? Like pancakes and such...

DW - no. It's from the original cast... Alan Cumming and Natasha Richardson. Adam closed the show.

Cam - I can't eat ANTYHING with milk. Even with traces. So, like, if you've ever seen ingredient labels with "may contain traces of..." stuff like that could even kill me, which means I can't eat a lot of candy, either. That labelling comes from foods being made on shared equipment, which can also be really dangerous. But, to answer your question, I can't eat anything cooked with milk at all. But cooking-wise, there are substitutes for most anything, now.

I know what you mean Em.. I don t have to be that careful. thankfully! Traces of it dont usually bother make me react to badly. I still have to be careful though.. I'm always asking what's in stuff.. Even when my granmother cooks..

I'm allergic to peanuts, thats a huge pain too! There are traces of peanuts in so many foods, not as bad as milk though...

I'm allergic to peanuts, too. That's so much more dangerous because it's airborne.

love the pic! Hi all! Needs counsiling since i am in deep depression from mourning the loss of Cabaret. Actually not really but i do miss the show. IT has been a year! WHere does time go?

"At the opening night party, they had clowns on stilts, jugglers, a chocolate fountain, popcorn, hot dogs. [My son] looked at me like I had been holding back. Like, 'This is what you do?' I had to tell him, 'No, no, darling. Opening nights don't usually look like this.' It's usually a dark bar with a bottle of vodka." ?Chitty Chitty Bang Bang's Jan Maxwell plus i proudly share the title of the shortest member over the age of 10 with wickedrentq!

Oh God... a cupcake!

I have my Cabaret CD on right now. I was eating dinner, and my watch hit 7:00. My heart sank. It's weird to think to yourself "one year ago from THIS EXACT MOMENT..." - of course, that event was Adam's eyes peeping through that little hole in the door one, last time.

Emcee, Sally, and all the rest, I miss you. Where did this year go? I feel like I was watching Adam shake it in those suspenders just yesterday.

Now that I've been able to wa- *listen* to Cabaret myself, I can understand a little bit how you all feel. Probably doesn't compare at all to the real thing, but still... what a great production. And Adam did amazingly well.

That New Year's quote of his is really funny. (For anyone who didn't see this on Broadway.com, a number of theater people were asked about their resolutions. Adam said "I never make New Year's resolutions. I'm already perfect --- just kidding!") I can see a double irony there, tweaking both the fans who actually think he *is* perfect, and the anti-fans who believe that *he* thinks he's perfect.

That's part of what I love about that quote, Chloe. He's no fool. Though, I must wonder... what about those fans who enjoy poking fun (albeit goodnaturedly, of course) at his imperfections? I suppose that means we love him that much more.

Glad you enjoyed Cabaret. It's something, at least. Something to remember by. I can never give enough props to Adam for pulling that off, because love him as I do, I never though it'd work... and he had half the standard rehearsal time for that role. Pretty damned impressive. The production was gorgeous.... and it's one of the only shows I've ever seen that has really, truly made me think. I was literally speechless for hours after my first time.

...aaaaand end rant.

it's ok emcee to rant! He was the only emcee i saw. I actually saw the show because of him and i wish i had seen the show earlier in its run since it is really amazing! I want to say Adam is the best emcee but i can't say since i only saw him (and Joel Grey in the movie). AHHH i love ADAM!

Well, I'd say those fans are also poking fun at themselves, for loving someone so much despite his imperfections. For someone who isn't particularly intellectual himself (though I would say very smart on an emotional and instinctive level), he seems to attract rather verbal, intellectual types. His wife probably falls into that category too.

Thanks for your rant, too. I always like hearing your impressions. From what I gather, your speechless reaction was what the production was aiming for.

I'd say so, about his wife. She's a playwright, isn't she? And I hear a very good one, at that. Personally, I suppose (if I can modestly consider myself verbal and intellectual) it's the desire to look beyond the surface. If he was just a pretty face and a killer body, I'd not be so pathetically loyal. I'm a sucker for musicians; that's always going to be where he gets me. And I do believe I also fall into the category of a fan who is also poking fun at herself. Without a doubt.

Cabaret - that's what the production was meant to do. I loved taking first-timers with me when I went back, because I loved being there to experience their reactions to it... it was all the same. They stared at me, huge eyes, wondering what they'd just seen. My CD just ended. Even just listening to the finale still breaks my heart.

"In here, life is beautiful.
The girls are beautiful.
Even the orchestra.... is beautiful."
And it all came crashing down.

I wish there was still stuff like this. Such a shame.

Okay, I promise I'll stop being so morbid.

According to my teacher, if I crack enough times I'll hit it eventually...I think Adam defied that logic though...

Yeah, after about three tries - and my computer crashed after I finally got this one in. It's Elton John in his early twenties in front of the piano where he wrote his first couple of albums. I guess musicians get to me too, though my brother warned me early on to never, ever date one. I haven't always followed that advice, but he's probably right.

NTG - at the Chatterbox, Seth makes fun of how relaxed Adam was when he belted out that high C# in Pity the Child, which, apparently does defy logic. Adam says if he pushes for a note, or even just *worries* about hitting it, he won't. He says he just has to relax and let it happen. I'm no singer, but that kind of makes sense and kind of doesn't. I guess the part about psyching yourself out does, but don't you have to at least put in some effort? *shrug* Whatever works, boy.

Hey all!
Hooray, I don't have a lot of homework... my teachers must have known what today is.

I've never seen Cabaret, and I don't have a CD or anything like that to listen too... but I painted my nails green anyways.

I've heard that the revival of Cabaret was fairly different from both the original and the movie. Does anyone know of a good (preferably online) synopsis of the revival? Thanks muchly!

Yep, give me a minute. Someone on another forum asked me for it - let me dig it up.

Sorry you're having trouble, NTG. As someone who has done a little singing (but no belting), I interpreted Adam's comment to mean that tension in his face and neck would cause him to crack or go flat on a high note, but that relaxing those muscles allowed him to hit it.

Hey ballerina. I once saw a revival script online, but haven't been able to find it again. There is a book, however. It was mentioned here just recently, I think.

#14875

Yeah...well, it's not that I'm not an experienced singer. But these are pure belt exercises, and I've never even used these muscles before. ::sigh::

As far as Adam's comment...I definitely know that worrying will make you miss. I overshoot rather than cracking, but it's definitely happened before. As far as trying to force...I think he's suggesting that if he feels like he has to force the note, he misses it.
