We disagree..it's what makes America great!

Good to see Sheri Rene Scott and Will Ferrell enjoying the show last night.

Where do you see Elder Cunningham going with his memory on N spinoffs?

I particularly enjoyed Nutrogena and Next to Normal.

How was the technical aspect? I feel like Nicholaw (sp?) isn't really a director with a great "vision" or esthetic. His ELF production was pretty lackluster, design wise. Drowsy was better.

Can someone explain the show curtain?

[kyle4]

Posted: 2/25/11 at 12:35pm

the production values are SUPER lackluster.... i assumed that was what they were going for, but... why?

the "n" jokes about her name... well, kinda cute but, ultimately, lame...

just not that funny!

the review i wrote can be more easily accessed at

thetheaterbuff.com

i couldn't get that thing to work at 3 am... i think it is fixed now... either way, the other link works!!!!

Actually, everyone who was in our class looks good today - and that includes me :) and Cindy Williams and Michael Lembeck and Annette Cardona (Annette Charles when she played Cha Cha in the movie of Grease) and several others who've gone on to have nice careers.

Um... Kyle4? I went to your blog and read your post about this show. Are you just trying to get Cheyenne Jackson to fall in love with you through a blog or something? We need to see him in form fitting clothes? This is what makes a show 'good'? Dude. I mean.... dude.

You mentioned allergies in your blog post. Perhaps you're allergic to humor?

Could someone describe the set design? Also if someone could post a curtain picture of the curtain it would be much appreciated

Re: the N jokes. At dress rehearsal we had neosporin and nagasaki. Hilarious.

And the sets vary, but the primary one is set in Uganda, so it's a bunch of shacks and wooden plank looking things...sort of worn down and very tribal. I thought the sets were a definite highlight (I'm bored of projections, so I found it refreshing that they didn't use them.)

idiot...

no, i am not trying to make mr. jackson fall in love with me... i support his love of his boyfriend, monte...

i bumped into the both of them in rome (of all places !!!)... that whole evening will be the subject of a later blog post...

but, no.... i support LOVE.... and i support cheyenne in form-fitting clothes.... i am a VERY SUPPORTIVE PERSON....

as for allergies... dust mites, mole spores, penicilin and, oddly, carrots !!! thanks for inquiring !!!!

Is this going to be the trend going forward? No more opinions here? We need to go to blog links? I was just wondering what some people thought about Mormon. I have no interest in sifting through blogs to find it.

[kyle4]

Posted: 2/26/11 at 1:19pm
