yeah - Ross is like a cheap Marshall's....
another video story...
back when I was an usher - I was working SARAFINA (one of the BEST shows EVER) and this teacher was there with his class - great right?
Until we catch him videotaping the show (not a small camera mind you but a big-ass VIDEO like the news guys you know?)
Now he's supposed to be setting an example for his class - instead, he starts to cuss the House Manager for making him give up the film - like TOTALLY not getting it....
"STUPIDTY SHOULD BE PAINFUL"
OOPS:
ENJOY ALL, Sorry it took so long...I got distracted!
DEFYING MEEEE! (c)
(The curtain opens and the stage is dark. A spotlight turns on, revealing ELPHABA. She is standing at a microphone with a magic wand in her hand.)
[To the tune of Over The Moon]
ELPHABA
Last night this girl threw water on me
I was in my castle at Kiamo Ko
And it hurt
I began to melt and I didn't know what to do
Out of the abyss walked a man, the Scarecrow
He bent over to me, knocked on the door, and said:
"Hey, there, babe, it worked…well
To the land of Oz, we cannot…(she hits her magic want against her leg)…return” (“return” echoes)
He said, “Only thing to do is to leave from Oz now
We’ve been banned forever, from Shiz and the Emerald City and pet stores
And now we are rebels heading to another…(she hits her magic want against her leg)…land (“land” echoes)
But remember this well…
CHORUS (hums)
Defy Grav…Gravity…Defy Grav…Gravity
ELPHABA
Only thing for me is trying to defy gravity!
Only thing for me is trying to defy gravity!
I have got to make good!
It’s like I’m being tied to the end of a broomstick, being flown into a river, left to melt! Tricked my the Wizard, all I see is that ditz’s blonde curls! I
gotta
gotta
gotta
gotta
gotta
gotta
gotta
gotta
gotta
gotta
Defy Gravity!
Only thing for me is trying to defy gravity!
Then, a little lion cub enetered. His name, we have learned, is Cowardly. And although that munchkin pr|ck says I ruined his life, we all know the truth:
1, 2, 3…”that witch,” he said, “ever since that girl was born she’s been creating….commotions. Our Headmistress and the Wizard, oh, they saw it right away…they said, “her green skin is but an outward manifestorium of her twisted nature, maybe it’s a…green-girl thing. Well look at her sister, that tragically beautiful Nessa – that eastern Wicth! Morrible and the Wiz, they’re down on their luck, they come knocking on Glinda’s door…and she says, “Nessa’s the answar, guys! Drop a house on her!”
“The only way for peace is to leave Oz” Fiyero whispered….
“Daaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaance through life!”
Still don’t know what to do? Let’s trick them all. And I bowed my head in understanding. And preceded to hand over the Grimmerie to Glinda…::sobb, sobb::
“Hide away now!” I told her.
And has the Witch hunters rose over the castle, I whipped my broom back, slapping and whacking, I came back through the trap door belting:
CHORUS (hums)
Defy Grav…Gravity…Defy Grav…Gravity
ELPHABA
Only thing for me is trying to defy gravity!
Only thing for me is trying to defy gravity!
Only thing for me is trying to defy gravity!
Only thing for me is trying to defy gravity!
Only thing for me is trying to defy gravityyyyyyyyyyyyyy!
MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
It’s MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

congrats fredi!
Am I out of the loop, or is it wrong to ask what's being filmed!
::hides away in corner::
I would like to add that I like Rent, Wicked, and Idina...no bashing meant - only thankfulness (word) - Wicked has corrupted my vocab) to the brillaint score of Rent and the beautiful story of Wicked)....
I havvent picked a day. I was trying to find someone to go with me, but so far no luck, and I dont want to brave Baltimore all alone. And Id have to see if I could have off of work. ::crosses fingers:: What day are you going?
I'm so honored.. Love the signature Fredi.. hehe..
Night Em!
Kates I'm so excited I could simply burst..
OOO,
I love the signature...
But where would the comedy be in our lives if it weren't for the stupid people?
Vive, I'm going for the entire run in Baltimore.. I know I'm a freak.. I'm going East by myself.. still trying to figure out how to break the news to my 80 year old grandma that I will be AWOL for Christmas.. I'm a terrible person aren't I?
I would LOVE to go on Christmas, but it's not happening lol.
What time do you get to the theatres usually? Im trying to figure out a good time to go so I can get Rush seats, because if I dont get them, I don't get any lol.

dumb question, but how do I do a signature thing?
I'm not sure, it varies by city, in San Jose it was lottery so I didn't bother coming super early, got lucky on that one.. In San Diego it was first come first serve, so I was there really early in the morning..
I'm sooo there on Christmas
she's 80. she's lived this long, she'll be there next year...
What's going on with baltimore and rushing?
Oy, this has been a long day!
