I wasn't sure it was you, and felt a little weird as it was introducing myself to someone who I've never met, but have talked to on a messageboard, I'm a little weird with things like that. I'm wicked social, and have no problem meeting other people, but certain scenarios make me oddly uncomfortable.
oh and random aside, i love your signature JRB cause thats my hometown paper and that quote makes me proud.
Is Jerby more intimidting than John Simon? Though he doesn't work for NY Magazine anymore...
it depends upon the context.
By the way, folks, there's a show today at 3:30 if you're oot and aboot and one tomorrow at 7:45!
it's ok Zoney, I'm being a hypocrite---I get terribly shy myself.
I may be intimidating, but I'm actually very sweet and slutty!

It wasn't that you were intimidating, I just really felt weird introducing myself to an essential complete stranger because I thought they were someone from an online message board. plus, if i had been wrong i would have felt incredibly (wow i cant spell right now, I havent slept since sunday night.) stupid and i loathe feeling incredibly stupid (which, oddly enough, i feel right now because of my atrocious spelling).
Hi there! I've been following this thread without contributing ("lurking", I believe it's called), but thought you'd like to know that nytheatre.com had posted a review of your show. Their goal every year (at least since last year) is to review every damn show in the Fringe, and you've made the list today:

And, by the way, I think bwaysinger got a favorable mention for his song (sorry, I don't know your real-life name). Congrats!
Indeed he did:
[Bwaysinger]'s presentation of “The Boy Inside” is both heartwarming and fun, as he ponders his lust for the boy next door.
YAY!
Mega-Yays for bway!
And rhe opening and closing lines of the review are as positive as it gets!
Break a leg at today's show, bway!

its really depressing how badly i wish i had a recording of this show. I loved the songs.
True dat. The songs ranged from great to genius in the show. Lyrically, the act one number about the drudgery of straight marriage was BRILLIANT.

yes, yes it was. There was so much that was brilliant.
My favorite lyric in the whole show was "I fell in love with his laugh/I didn't know it was genetic/now he and the kids, they laugh and laugh/until I want to beat them to death with a garden rake."
oh, Poppy, let me give you the actual lyric:
"It's his laugh that I fell in love with/Who would know it would be genetic?
He and the kids laugh and laugh 'til I want to beat them to death with a garden rake."
And yeah, it was nice to get a little mention! And the show was visited by three critics today, a major talent rep AND a recent Tony nominee. So, all in all, good times!
Nitpicker! I was pretty darn close.
Congrats on the lovely review!

Thanks. One critic was going nuts today. Unfortunately, we have no clue who he was...he might just be some wacky blogger for all we know but they do contact our director and the producers when the reviews go up.
SO we'll see where the next rave comes from!
Thanks, Jerby. Boy, your avatars are getting racier...or is it just me?
I don't know, my outlook has been sort of skewed since I started doing this show...
Which, by the way, has a performance tonight at 7:45 at the Player's Theatre, 115 Macdougal St (corner of Sullivan St!). Come on down, tickets are on sale for day-of show at the theatre!
Trust me--they could get racier, but they would then be deleted.
Just got reviewed in Backstage. And I got a nice mention again!
