So precious. And ever so talented.

I really can't beleive that there are music theatre majors at my school who haven't seen him in a show, or don't know who he is.

He's the best. And if they want an acting lesson, they should start by watching him.

I wonder if he does. I'd be surprised -- it was such a long time ago. Flattered, but surprised.

So, do you think they really recorded? I'm gonna go nuts!

That was the first I have heard about it.

Oh goodness, I really hope so!

*jumps up and down*

Oh, I hope so!


Oh, and Em, that guys has an unbelievable memory. I'm guessing he does remember that. Especially because you are a young woman. Not some old theatre critic kissing his ass.

Could it be true?

[Chrysanthemum62001]

No word yet on his site, but I'm gonna keep a look out for the "official" word.

Chrys, that comment scares me. Because ideally, I *will* be that theatre critic kissing ass. Not like Riedel does in a fake way, but... I want to do it. I really, really do. I don't even know why. I'm scared, but... I wanna!

He seems like he has a great memory, but has never mentioned familiarity with me. I just sort of get a look - it's like he knows I might freak out at any given second, or something.

Anthony Rapp has a memory that I can't get over. I'll have friends with me that he's met once, months and months ago, and not only does he know he's met them before, but quite often he knows where and when, too. He says he remembers faces and not names, but that's more than many can say. He's... God, he's fantastic. *Anthony love*

*breathes* Not to get my poor little Maritimer hopes up, but OH MY GOD! That's exciting!

YAY!!!!!! This made my night!

[greatdct]

Posted: 10/1/05 at 9:37pm

Em, he HAS to recognize you. I have no doubt.

[luvtheEmcee]

Posted: 10/1/05 at 9:37pm

He's got to. But not for being talkative.

[greatdct]

Posted: 10/1/05 at 9:40pm

I wonder if the girls will get to see him at the stage door tonight. Or maybe they went before the show to see him.

Oh, so that just reminded me - when do they have rehearsals? He said somewhere that he has rehearsals all day and then the show at night. But do they have rehearsal EVERY day?

[Chrysanthemum62001]

Posted: 10/1/05 at 9:41pm

Sorry, didn't mean to scare you! Go for what you want. And by the time you are a well established, old theatre critic, you won't half to kiss anyone's ass!



LOL! It's better than being remembered for ALWAYS making an ass of yourself! *facepalm*

[Chrysanthemum62001]

Posted: 10/1/05 at 9:42pm

Are you sure that comment wasn't made durring previews. I don't think they would have rehearsals anymore. Not even when someone new comes in.

[luvtheEmcee]

Posted: 10/1/05 at 9:42pm

I hope they're having fun. Actually, the show would've just ended now, right? *crosses fingers!*

When a show is previewing, because it's undergoing changes, it's pretty common practice for them to go straight from tech (the first time they'll rehearse in the theatre) week into previews. Once they launch into previews, they generally rehearse during the day and perform at night, going over the previous night's show during the day, and implimenting changes that night, if they feel ready. They can call rehearsals during the run at certain points, but there are all sorts of union contractual things that go into when they can be held, and for how long.

[greatdct]

Posted: 10/1/05 at 9:44pm

Hm. I really have no idea when it was, but it confused me. But what you are saying makes more sense.

Although I know that the Wicked cast still has rehearsals a few times a week. So I guess I thought it might be the same for Chitty.

[Chrysanthemum62001]

Posted: 10/1/05 at 9:45pm

Oooh, maybe there will be buzz about the OBC recording floating around the stage door tonight! I hope they return bringing tidings of great joy.

[luvtheEmcee]

Posted: 10/1/05 at 9:45pm

I wish we had a way to get in touch with one of them so we could tell them to ask!

[greatdct]

Posted: 10/1/05 at 9:46pm

Ah. I kind of want to e-mail Heather and ask her. But I don't want to be a bother. I think I'll just wait and see.

[Chrysanthemum62001]

Posted: 10/1/05 at 9:46pm

Me too! That would be too perfect.

[luvtheEmcee]

Posted: 10/1/05 at 9:47pm

Emma's dad is going to check on it. Shall report, if it's not a big fat secret.

[Chrysanthemum62001]

Posted: 10/1/05 at 9:49pm

*so excited*

[greatdct]

Posted: 10/1/05 at 9:50pm

This is great news. Emma and Michael are fantastic. But just... no!

[luvtheEmcee]

Posted: 10/1/05 at 9:55pm

Not Raul!

[greatdct]

Posted: 10/1/05 at 9:58pm

Totally NOT Raúl!

Aww! And how excited am I that Ellen will be on the recording. *gasp* That means Ellen, Henry, and Raúl singing "You Two". I may never stop listening to that song.
