So, Mr. Singer. Ya got something against dancing skeletons, pirates, a giant lemon????? LOL!!

I think Joe Brooks was sitting in front of me. I have to go search out his picture and check. There were two guys, both taking notes and the one I think was Brooks kept leaning over to the other guy, making gestures at certain points during songs and sometimes dialogue, and the other guy kept nodding to him. Whenever the audience was hysterically laughing, he would look over towards the loudest laughers and smile and nod his head. There was also a young woman sitting with them, and she would look over at him to check his reaction to the audience response. At the curtain call, he was whoo whoing and clapping manically.

Edit: Not that I really needed to, but I found a pic of Brooks at Playbill.com and it was most definitely him.

I'm sorry you had to sit by him, that would have ruined my uncomfortably laughing type of enjoyment!
But, come on, did you count how many times they said, "In my life" in the title song? I think I lost count after 586.

In the title song, don't they just repeat the phrase OVER and OVER again?

[bwaysinger]

Posted: 10/15/05 at 9:44am

Yes. They actually start AND end same sentences with it. In fact, it's my new favorite thing to do.
In my life, thanks for posting on my thread, MEF, in my life!

God, I could write Oscar-winning lyrics!

In my life. You're welcome. In my life.

Thank you, MEF, Thank you.
Actually, I abhor/love this show so much that I'm seeing it again tonight.
The BF wanted to go and I told him he'd have to come up with the tickets. He did. I think everyone should experience the best lyrics ever to grace a Broadway stage.

Once was enough for me...

I'm thrilled, plus I have to scout it out as they're considering the Elphapug to replace the little girl. He's been working on his vocals.

[melissa errico fan]

Posted: 10/15/05 at 10:04am

E-Pug would be a wonderful replacement. Can he pass for Puerto Rican?

[bwaysinger]

Posted: 10/15/05 at 10:05am

No, he's Asian, but that's in keeping with the casting of the show.

[melissa errico fan]

Posted: 10/15/05 at 10:07am

So true, so true.

[bwaysinger]

Posted: 10/15/05 at 10:09am

Ok. I'm not one to hate colorblind casting, but seriously. The mother is Latina. Hanke is the whitest boy this side of Nazi Germany. The girl is some sort of nebulously ethnic sprite. The understudy for the little girl is...black.
This wouldn't be a problem if you were doing a sort of "everyman" show but that's not what it is.

[melissa errico fan]

Posted: 10/15/05 at 10:16am

I totally agree. Hanke is about as convincing a Latino as Anthony Hopkins was as a black man in The Human Stain. It's not like there aren't any talented Latino actors out there. The mind boggles.

[bwaysinger]

Posted: 10/15/05 at 10:20am

Well, but see, that's why I'm so confused.
Is he necessarily supposed to be Latino? I mean, I don't understand why you'd find a white man as the best person for your role, you'd think about who you were casting as his sister and mother.
Beyond bizarre. But it's oddly in keeping with the tone of the piece.

I'm needing a Pug-Pic today. Any pics to post of E-pug?
