So, I've been on a TWS kick the last couple of weeks and decided to bump this thread. Yes, sorry. We can't let it stay dead forever! Haha. How is everyone?

Anyone gone and seen our cast in their various other jobs? Did not get to see Lynch and Joberg on the first leg of the 3 Balloons tour, but I'm hoping it comes near me this fall. Anyone else? I've heard it's awesome and Stephen's new album is pretty damn funny.

Kevin Kern is Fiyero in Wicked right now, but that's old hat. Richard Blake is Fiyero on the 1NT (and is wonderful, btw -- got to see him a couple of weeks ago here in Omaha). Amy and Constantine are doing Rock of Ages, but that's also old hat. Tina moved to Kansas. Laura won a Tony. Who else has been up to what? I've been trying to keep track, but it's proving difficult!

^ The show is not dead forever, It's about to start another major national tour.

It is?! What! I had no idea. Has it announced tour dates yet?

Ugh! Damn. I wish it were coming through here. Our touring season next year completely sucks and I need something to liven it up. Something that isn't Legally Blonde, please.

I saw the first tour and would love to see the 2nd.

I really enjoyed this show and miss it.

The first tour never came anywhere near me. Actually, it might've played down in Kansas City. I can't remember. Whatever, though. If the second NT comes close-ish, I'm going to try and go. I miss this show too much, haha. Updated On: 5/25/09 at 04:52 PM

Does anyone know of any other cities this show will play in?

[thespian geek]

Posted: 5/26/09 at 5:10pm

I'm hoping an official announcement of the cities will be made soon, otherwise I would say just keep your eye on www.theweddingsingerontour.com and see if it gets updated, maybe.

The 2nd tour is great!! The cast is REALLY talented!!! If you're near Lancaster, PA July 30-September 12, it will be playing at the Dutch Apple Dinner Theater before "officially" going on tour. It's currently at the Broadway Palm Dinner Theater in Fort Myers, FL till June 6th. Come see it!!!

Sorry, but I have a quick question - who did Constantine play in TWS and when was he in it? They mentioned it when Rock of Ages performed for The Today Show. I knew Amy Spanger was in it, but didn't know about Constantine.

[thespian geek]

Posted: 5/27/09 at 12:15am

He was Sammy for like, two months (I think) in the fall? I want to say it was mid-September to around mid-November. I could be wrong. I know he came into the show when Kevin Kern was still on as Robbie because Stephen was on vacation, haha.

It's coming to Dutch Apple?

I've been to that theater, and I'm sorry but it seems like a bit of a downgrade.

It's not a big place at all...I wonder if the show's booking any better caliber theaters for this tour or if it's only going to be at places like that.

[thespian geek]

I don't remember the first national tour playing bigger cities/theatres either, though. So I don't know. They probably play what they can get.

[sgv123]

Posted: 5/27/09 at 1:27am

The first national tour played several big cities. I saw it in Baltimore.

[thespian geek]

Posted: 5/27/09 at 1:44am

Oh. Oops! Haha. I just remember that when the first NT was announced, people were like... why isn't it playing anywhere bigger? I'm pretty sure my brain isn't making that up... er...

It's going to the Dutch Apple before it's actually considered the National Tour. The actual tour doesn't start until late 09. Broadway Palm and Dutch Apple are like previews for the tour, such as the Footloose 10th Anniversary Tour was at Dutch Apple last summer and is coming to Broadway Palm this summer.

So I don't even know who will see this, but Felicia Finley is playing a gig in Chicago next Friday night. $5 cover and you get a free copy of her debut CD! You can find more info on feliciafinley.net

Speaking of Felicia, saw her post somewhere on Facebook that she's going to be in Catch Me If You Can this fall.

I'm obsessed with this cast recording right now!

Posted: 5/31/09 at 3:18pm

I really don't know what to think about the fact that they Robbie and Julia on the tour are actually married, lol.
