Brian Allan Hobbs
Charles Bloom
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! :-)

I'm surprised only one person has said Michael John LaChiusa, I'd love to hear more from him.

Also, Tesori, JRB, Adam Guettel, and David Yazbeck.

Gumbo, I love LaChiusa terribly but he's pretty good about churning out the shows!

I mean, last season alone we got See What I Wanna See AND Bernarda Alba!

I CAN'T wait to hear/see what he presents next

This is going to end up being more of a "my favorite composers" type thing, but:

Jason Robert Brown
Scott Alan
Michael John Lachiusa
Duncan Shiek

I love all their music SO so much, and would probably go to any show any of them ever create :)

and Jonathan Larson would most definitely be on there too.. but..le sigh

I don't need a life that's normal. That's way too far away. But something next to normal would be okay. Something next to normal is what I'd like to try. Close enough to normal to get by.

pianodude, have you heard or seen "3hree"? The one-act in the middle is John Bucchino's "Lavender Girl," at least one song of which can be heard on his "Grateful" album.

I have to say, "Lavender Girl" contains my favorite songs on the 3hree CD.

Also...I'd love to hear more from David Kirschenbaum. I went to a cabaret of his stuff at Joe's Pub and loved all of it. More please!

Guettel, JRB, and Charles Strousse.
Poor Charles hasnt has a hit in forever, and his music is always so good.
You can never have too much Flaherty & Ahrens.
I really miss Cy Coleman!

Here's Michael John LaChiusa comes out with that out-of-the-park hit I know he has in him.

Also, I'm still dying to see the great Kander/Ebb's THE VISIT...coming to New York? Please?
"Impossible is just a big word thrown around by small men who find it easier to live in the world they've been given than to explore the power they have to change it. Impossible is not a fact. It's an opinion. Impossible is not a declaration. It's a dare. Impossible is potential. Impossible is temporary. Impossible is nothing.” ~ Muhammad Ali

Frankel
LaChiusa
I am a firm believer in serendipity- all the random pieces coming together in one wonderful moment, when suddenly you see what their purpose was all along.
