Really cute video!

As a Torontonian I would love to know why their Toronto run in Wicked was so bad...

Wow, that video. It was so ... spastastic. And yeah, what was with the hate-on for Toronto?

Hilarious; thanks for sharing.

(I think Toronto was just cold--especially by comparison to the cities they played just before it.)

They both come across as so down to earth and friendly. And their voices are just fierce! Whatever they do its always amazing and I can't wait to see whats in store.

It should be an entertaining evening with those two!

I wish them luck with the variety show... I think it would be fun to see something like that on TV again.

In the context of what they said they were using the special guest for, how hilarious would it be if Arsenio Hall showed up? LOL

I laughed so hard I woke my roomates up. Now why they're asleep at 5:30 I'll never know. I think my favorite part was Shoshana rolling her eyes when Megan talked about that "Ultimate Wicked Fan" in Deal or No Deal.

I loved that interview.
I laughed so much!
They could not have been more adorable.
I am envious of anyone who goes to see them in LA.
:crosses fingers for Shoshana and Megan Variety Show!:

I love Shoshana and Megan. :]

Love the girls, but I didn't appreciate the Toronto hate.

Although wasn't 2006 a particularly cold winer?

outdamnwench - cold as it usually is in winter (which is basically the same as NYC)...there was no snow that year either. something about toronto, people just don't like...like the two of them said when they first begged to do the tour together, it was ok'd *only* if they'd do toronto. (followed by an eye roll.) so it's something that they knew about the city before they even got here. who knows.

After re watching it the impression I got was this.

That in an ideal world they would have just played their respective hometowns and then gone home.


I think also that even though they just finished Wicked on Broadway prior to the tour. If I recall Tornoto was a longer stop for them then their hometowns and maybe they had enough of the show?


I don't think it was hate of the city. I think it was more of them clearly enjoying each others company and having enough and wanting to go home.

Maybe as well as maybe feeling tired of doing the show they could have felt that while there was stuff for them to do in both of thier home towns there might not have been much for them to do in Toronto.

They also were there over the holidays. That run got extended, so I don't know if they went into it knowing they'd be there over Christmas and New Year's.

I hope their cabaret show goes well!

I was going to say I thought that the Toronto leg of their tour contract seemed longer then the other two stops. I just think that it was going to be the last time the two of them worked together for awhile and they knew that and they weren't looking foward to it. And, as it has been said before they got an extended run meaning that they were there over the holidays instead of home with thier families or at least not working.

I work part time at a retail store in dt Toronto and one day I met 3 cast members from the Drowsy Chaperone tour. I was helping them with their purchases and they were telling me they loved the city but they needed to go back Asap to the US because the hotels and food here were expensive and it was hurting their pocket. Who knows.. I find hotels more expensive in New York.

If it is any indication of what the evening will be... then it seems amazing.
