It's a character in Jason Robert Brown's Parade, who sings the song Pretty Music. I picked it over some other crappy ones, and I'm glad I did. :)

Now see, I've always read your name as "B Me on Bway"

I'd suppose most people can figure out mine...but for those who don't know....it's the name of the character played by Antonio Banderas in the musical "Nine".

don't diss Raul Julia! He had to be the one of the most amazing actors of his generation. Antonio Banderas only WISHES he had one "inth" of Raul Julia's talent. Those were some mighty big shoes to fill. He's lucky he even got the chance.

uh oh...I'm sorry. I was hoping nobody'd be offended by that. *hangs head and sulks away slowly*

Hello Marquise,

We don't know the story behind YOUR Username. :)

Let's peek at what's behind Marquise's front (i assume a scrumptious butt.) Who really cares what's behind the name?

Well my orginality was not working the night I registered so I used the same one I use for a lot of other things I'm registered with. Sweetie Darlin is one of the statements frequently used by one of my favorite television characters, Edina Monsoon from Absolutely Fabulous. If you've never seen the show, I suggest you sprint to Blockbuster and rent the entire series.
Oh and MIA is my initials.

A role I played at a Children's theatre early in my career. Moses Goldberg's Little Red Riding Hood and the Three Little Pigs. The wolf sort of unites the two stories. re: What's the Story Behind Your BWW Username?
Word. Word, indeed.

Hmmm, The story behind my screename. Well, I love RENT with a passion, and there is a 2 on the end because it told me that there was already a 'NoDayButToday' so I added a number. Which doesn't make sense, because I've never seen a NoDayButToday on the boards before. ::Shrugs::

re: What's the Story Behind Your BWW Username?

I have had an almost 30 year affinity for big old theaters (picture palaces)

The biggest of them all was the Roxy in NYC. Same size as Radio City but more ornate. Pounded to dust in the name of progress in 1960 after only 33 years. Gloria Swanson standing in the rubble ( Follies)etc etc.

Mr Roxy is for the theater & the impressario behind it & Radio City

NoDay--didn't you read in the guidelines that all Rent song titles are prohibited from being used as a screen name. Do your homework!

I played Carl Magnus my Junior year in College at Niagara Universtiy. And of course I had to grow a stash for the role. Well during rehearsals one night one of my buddies said, jokingly, I looked like Tom Selleck. We then called the character Carl Magnum for the rest of rehearsal and the nickname stuck.

"NoDay--didn't you read in the guidelines that all Rent song titles are prohibited from being used as a screen name. Do your homework!"

Haha... Well then I guess it's good that 'No Day But Today' isn't the name of a song then isn't it?

glad you asked, sonny boy!
this name was created when i was 13 and needed a hotmail account. so i thought "HMMMMM... i love michael feinstein.... and nine is my favourite number...and it rhymes..." and i sort of used it for other things after that.
nine is, of course, a special number because of the beatle connection. it's sort of a "paul is dead" thing, only it's like, many of their songs and things and their lives have things to do with the number 9. so, feinstein= michael feinstein, 9= beatle number.

feinstein9,

Now I know why you "flipped out" over my Beatles/Monkees Copycat Post! :)

I got my name from one of my favorite obscure Elton John songs. I originally started reading the board after seeing and loving Aida, and don't post very much because most of you know a lot more about Broadway than I do. However, ask me anything about Elton John, and I also know a bit about the movie business.
