I recommend 'Altar Boyz'. Even if you're not Catholic, it's a hoot. If you are Catholic, it's a hoot-nad-a-half.

If you are in before the 6th and can get a ticket, see Spring Awakening. I was refusing to see Altar Boyz because I did not like the cast recording. I finally went to see it last month and I say, GO GO GO!!! Some of the most fun I have had at the theatre and an absolute riot!

I just saw a preview show of SHOUT! The Mod Musical. It was absolutely wonderful! I say see it now before it gets huge, because it was that good.

Is Stuff Happens transferring or anything? I thought it was doing good business.

Also, is Spring Awakening getting recorded?

It had been extended a lot, so it was long past when it was supposed to close.
