I think it was more to give very stark highlight to things that were symbolic, rather than the colors themselves being symbolic.

Elphie, it's all black and white.

Oh. Right. I think I remember reading about that, now.

Hey, guys!

I know, I hardly ever post and am thusly terrible, buuuut...

I just found out AMDA gave me a scholarship! So... anybody want to see Company with me in November?

*zOMG so excited!*

Congrats!

[ElphieDefiesGravity]

Congratulations!

What's AMDA?

*grin* AMDA is the American Musical and Dramatic Academy (http://www.amda.edu)...which is in New York.

You realize my first thought actually WAS..."I can see Raul in Company now!"

I'm such a loser. :-/

You're not a loser! Anything having to do with Raul is totally unloserish.

[luvtheEmcee]

I wish that statement were true.

Well, you can be a loser, in a good way?

[ElphieDefiesGravity]

Posted: 5/14/06 at 10:47pm

Often, when I talk about Raul, my friends call me a loser. But, they *always* mean it in a good way.

Right?

[Mandi Moo]

Posted: 5/14/06 at 10:48pm

Of course they do!

My friends don't know who Raul is.

[ElphieDefiesGravity]

I was telling my neighbor about Raul, and he thought I said something like "Rola Nuspar". Something like that. He thought he was from Bolivia or something.


Roland Spicer. *cracks up*

haha.

Picturing Raul as porn star Roland Spicer is something that will never fail to make me laugh.

[Mandi Moo]

Posted: 5/14/06 at 11:12pm

What? I think I've missed something...

[ElphieDefiesGravity]

Posted: 5/14/06 at 11:14pm

Didn't you know, Mandi? Before Broadway it was the movies.

[Mandi Moo]

Posted: 5/14/06 at 11:16pm

No, I didn't know that. I guess I should go check them out.

[ElphieDefiesGravity]

Posted: 5/14/06 at 11:19pm

Yeah, they're great.


But, for serious (I love saying that!), there was an interview where Raul talked about people butchering his name, and he said one of the worst was "Roland Spicer. That sounds like some sort of porn star's name." Something like that. I find it tremendously amusing.

[Mandi Moo]

Posted: 5/14/06 at 11:21pm

How the hell do you get Roland Spicer from Raul Esparza?

[ElphieDefiesGravity]

Posted: 5/14/06 at 11:22pm

*shrug* That's what makes it so incredibly amusing! Some people...

*googles Roland Spicer*

I have officially turned my mother into a Raul fan- she is in love with TTB and Taboo. And I'm getting her into Sondheim through Raul... this is a very good thing!

[Mandi Moo]

Bumping, because I just got one of his Chatterboxes in the mail.

[sweetestsiren]

Posted: 5/16/06 at 2:46pm

Yay, Mandi! I still need to order those. *hangs head in shame*

[To The Stage!]

Posted: 5/16/06 at 2:47pm

yay Mandi! I need to order them as well.
