In the scapbook section of the Playbill Broadway yearbook, what are you favorite parts?

I think "Light in the Piazza" takes the cake both years with the backstage banter that goes on. Also Phantom's "B.I.T.C.H" saying for the understudies. Plus I had a good time reading about all the FOOD involved in "Barefoot in the Park."

What are your favorite moments?

Agreed...the "Piazza" commentary by the two Davids (who were dressing-roommates at the Beaumont)- last year Burnham, this year Bonanno - are a highlight of this book. But there are many wonderful show scrapbooks in both editions..this is a book you just can't put down. It is GREAT!

i wanna say the correspondant for BITP was one of the techs if i recall. i love how she doesn't say the cast hated each other she just mentions how none of them hung out together. hee!

Anyone know who the Sweeney corrrespondent was?

Fantab, it was Donna Lynne. She answered like every question, and some of the answers are quite amusing.

I just got it from the library a few days ago so I haven't been able to really look through it yet, but I also really liked some of the kids' answers from TCP.

Could anyone possibly scan some photos of this book? I would be very grateful.

Re: BITP...weren't all the principals pretty busy folks so "hanging out" probably didn't fit into their schedules. I mean, the tech didn't say they weren't nice to each other, just that they didn't socialize...right? I mean...I'm hoping the cast was congenial.
I enjoyed their on-stage chemistry and assumed they had a pleasant working relationship with each other.

Anything about Hairspray or Diana DeGarmo?

There's a whole chapter on "Hairspray" and it's got DiGarmo's headshot.

I'm sure they would NOT be happy if you scanned pix from it, but there are quotes from some of the "correspondents" at

I liked when DLC said when taking places, she and some of the other Sweeney actors would sometimes look through the rips in the curtain to see who was there.
