Usually I dream that I'm the Emcee in a high school production of Cabaret. I always wake up before the Finale, though.
But last night I had a very disturbing Wicked dream. I can't tell you what it is because it's very disturbing.
Anyone else ever had dreams about musicals or plays?

I think I have dreamed that I was in The Woman in White once. London Sequence. Very fun!

Posted: 9/12/06 at 4:28pmI had a dream about an Aida revival, in which the staging was done by John Doyle (the whole actors playing instruments), and everyone came out with little synthesizers. It was disturbing, yet entertaining.

^ Haha, that's so funny!
I had a dream about being in DRS, my whole dream was me sitting on stage doing nothing during the overture. Then I woke up. My dreams are pretty weird.

Wow, just has a flashback dream from a few years ago
I had a dream that I had cancer, and the Make A Wish foundation let me be in THE LION KING for one night as Young Simba. I got out there and didnt know what the heck to do, but it was fun anyways.
Yeah.

Posted: 9/12/06 at 9:16pmSometimes dream up my own stagings of things. It's fun considering I eventually want to direct, and I write it all down in the morning, and scetch sets and lighting and stuff. I feel productive around-the-clock. Lol.

I dreamed that I was Audrey in Little Shop, but I didn't know any of the lines or songs, so I was improvising the whole thing. I had a similar dream about being onstage with the Indigo Girls and having to improvise guitar parts because I didn't know the music.
Ugh. Now that I think about it, I had a Guns n Roses dram like that, too. I was the solo guitar on Patience and had to make something up.
Recurring thing, I guess!! At least I always seem to pull it off.

First time I ever saw RENT I dreamed I got cast as Angel. I dreamt the entire casting process. But it's ironic because I'm very white and totally wrong for the role. Next morning, I woke up, ran downstairs screaming I'm gonna miss my train, I'll miss curtain, where's my costume?
It was that real.

I had a dream that I was the director of the Wicked movie. The first scene was Elphaba being born, full grown and in a bubble. Then, she just ran around for the rest of the movie. There was no Glinda.
Strangest dream of my life.
It was awesome. - theaterkid1015

I was in "The Best Christmas Pageant Ever" and I dreamt that I missed my first cue and then didn't come onstage for any of my scenes.
I also dreamt that I went to go see "Wicked" and my younger brother was playing Elphaba (right...) and I was sitting indian-style on stage while he was singing "No Good Deed"

Posted: 9/13/06 at 12:55pmI had a dream that when I went to see The Wedding Singer, these circus perfomers were there and they were being very loud and I couldnt hear. Then I went to go buy a t-shirt and I needed 20 more dollars and I walked around asking people and I finally asked Stephen Lynch for money and he gave to me.

Ok, ok. The Wicked dream involved the Wizard trying to seduce Elphaba. As in romantically. When that didn't work he tried to force himself on her.
I TOLD you it was disturbing.

Posted: 9/17/06 at 7:54pmIt wasn't interesting. It was creepy. I remember this distinct part where he kissed her leg and slowly worked his way up to her lips.

I had a dream that I was assistant directing Batman: The Musical, and our Robin quit opening night. Therefore I had to be Robin, and I had to learn all the lines and songs in 5 minutes, and make myself look and sound like a guy.

Posted: 10/7/06 at 3:05pmI had a dream once where I was in a production of Kiss Me Kate (I was the lead.) I was not ready at all for the Taming of the Shrew scenes (I'm terrible at memorizing Shakespeare) and I was mere seconds from going onstage.
