I'm not participating until you learn how to pluralize.

I edited my post to take out the Kimball/Murney innacurcy because Murney/Diggs weren't in Lennon together.

I'm confused on the game. We're connecting performers who were in shows together right? Menzel and Diggs were in Rent and Wild Party, next we'd need to find someone who was in Wild Party AND another show with Diggs right?

I thought we needed to find a performer who was in that same show, but also looks the same and has a similar vibrato.

Basically the reason for the confusion was becuase of the choice of Taye Diggs, though Idina was also in Wild Party, the new show (Wild Party) did not need to include the previous performer.

So person A was in show A with person B.
Person B was in show B with person C.
Person C was in show B with person D, etc...

To use Broadway people/shows as an ex.

Patti LuPone was in Evita with Mandy Patinkin
Mandy Patinkin was in Sunday... George with Bernadette Peters
Bernadette Peters was in Into the Woods with Chip Zien
Chip Zien... etc...

Chip Zien was in Falsettos with...

You're reminding me of people you hear at the movies asking questions every ten seconds, "Who is that? Why is that guy walking down the street? Who's that lady coming up to him? Uh-oh, why did that car go by? Why is it so dark in this theater?" - FindingNamo on strummergirl

"If artists were machines, then I'm just a different kind of machine...I'd probably be a toaster. Actually, I'd be a toaster oven because they're more versatile. And I like making grilled cheese" -Regina Spektor

"That's, like, twelve shows! ...Or seven." -Crazy SA Fangirl

"They say that just being relaxed is the most important thing [in acting]. I take that to another level, I think kinda like yawning and...like being partially asleep onstage is also good, but whatever." - Sherie Rene Scott

You must remember all the same that at the crux of every game is knowing when it's time to leave the table... And it's important to be artful in your exit. No turning back, you must accept the con is done... It was a ball, it was a blast. And it's a shame it couldn't last. But every chapter has to end, you must agree.

There's a special kind of people known as show people. We live in a world full of dreams. Sometimes we're not too certain what's false and what's real. But we're seldom in doubt about what we feel.

Steve Blanchard was in THE THREE MUSKETEERS with Marianne Tatum.

Cheyenne Jackson tickled me. AFTER ordering SoMMS a drink but NOT tickling him, and hanging out with Girly in his dressing room (where he DIDN'T tickle her) but BEFORE we got married. To others. And then he tweeted Boobs. He also tweeted he's good friends with some chick on "The Voice" who just happens to be good friends with Tink's ex. And I'm still married. Oh, and this just in: "Pettiness, spite, malice ....Such ugly emotions... So sad." - After Eight, talking about MEEEEEEEE!!! I'm so honored! :-)
