I have a question for you DRS buffs!
I've seen the show twice (I can't help it - can't get enough of Norb).
The first time, Norbert climbed into one of the box seats and did the "Did I miss a scene?" line from up there...
This past time (which happened to be on Sunday), Norbert didn't climb up there and Pryce said the line.
I was so dissapointed. Anyone know whats going on with that?

Oh, but anyways.

"Get me a posse, a'ight?"

and my favorite:
"hey. He kissed ME, and I didn't even enjoy it"
in that whiney Freddy voice he does

Yes they eliminated that bit w the balcony ( I liked it too) I also missed Freddie's "ah geez" in "Nothing is Too Wonderful" and his rock & roll yell in "Love is my Legs. Tho I know the yell loss is due too protecting his voice.
I wonder if the reason they cut the balcony bit is that it pulled the focus from the stage .

Okay. The whole show is fabulously hilarius. I can't wait to see it again. I think Price and Butz are fabulous together!!!! Any time where Norbert mentions anything about the set moving Is hilarius.

I also lived the number with the cowgirl, I forgot Mylinda's character's name. She was amazing. The little brother sequence. OMG ... no one can do as fabulous a job as Norbert. Who's replacing him? Do we know yet?

That character is named Jolene.

Favorite quotes favorite quotes...I saw the show for my 6th time last night, and I just can't get enough. After a while I begin to favor certain lines for no apparent reason, not just because they're funny, but just because they're, I don't know haha. But yeah, favorite lines favorite lines...

I love Greg's pencil joke, who doesn't love a good pencil joke?

The way Norbert says "Noooo" in his whiny voice is just awesome, I live for it. As well as the way he says "Sweeet."

The thing about the show is that the lines always change and are tweeked, so it's always different, but yeah, DRS rocks.

Dre - I was just going back and re-reading this thread. I noticed you said that the wallet stealing bit at the end was always there. Actually it wasn't. They changed the ending to add that during the previews.

hmmm.... favorite DRS quotes... let's see... as you can tell i'm a fan of muriel's character.

Muriel: I'm beginning to think someone put alcohol in that champange.

Muriel: I felt so selfish lying on my back while he tended to the front.

Andre: I'll miss you.
Muriel: Will you?
Andre: Only if you leave.

Muriel:So fate has had it's way and left me here in solitude. My prince goes off to war and once again I'm royally screwed. Perhaps a Xanax and a half with brighten up my mood.

Andre: Madame please you generousity is already legend. Between us there is talk of a statue.
Muriel: Of me?
Andre: Try to act surprised.
Muriel: Oh I am. I only got a tote bag from PBS.
Andre: Stay with the group, don't lose them, good bye.
Muriel: Can I be a stamp?
Andre: A stamp?
Muriel: I think I'd rather be a stamp.
Andre: Then a stamp you will be. An entire nation will lick your head.

Muriel: When I was just a little girl so young and innocent, I'd kneel beside my little bear, and say a prayer. I still remember, Let me have love unending, let me look good in shorts.

Lawrence- You would love my sister, she looks just like me except for the mustache.
Freddy- But you don't have a mustache.
Lawrence- I know.

(Sorry if I messed up that line, or its been said before).
If Percy Blakeney were in Les Mis....

Percy: Sink me! If it isn't Javvurt!
Javert: Zsah-vair, it's pronounced Zsah-vair.
Pecry: But it's spelled J-A-V-E-R-T Javvurt.
Javert: Repeat after me Zsah...Zsah....
Percy: Oh! Zsa-Zsa! Like the Gabor sister! Well I personally have always prefered Eva.
Javert: (Looks for gun)

Freddy: "Don't toy with me Christine!"

Muriel: "So, does the prance live to the east or west of the Alps?"
André: Yes.


Muriel: A famine?!
(André says something)
Muriel: No please, you MUST let me help, I know a fabulous caterer!"

Freddy: "Is this to buy or rent?!"


I messed up all of the lines except for the buying or renting one, I memorized that everytime I went to see it. Don't yell at me, arggh. I had enough yelling for one day.

Just a two more. I can't help myself.

Muriel: "He made me a dame!"
Freddy: "Oh, i'll just bet he did."

I'm not sure if I already posted this line..

André:"...Yes well, perhaps next time you pass this way I can show you the countryside. There is the most delightful little vineyard where you can once again wrap your legs around my head and squeeze it like a grape until the wine of your lust flows from my eyes."
Muriel: "What?"
André:"They make cheese,too!"

Muriel: No, no no! Your doing just fine! Are you listening to this?! This is not really.. I think we could do.. Excuse me one seccond. (Turns to the man playing the accordian) You know what? Lemme just have that. (Motions to take the accordian) I don't mean to be rude. What am I saying? Your french!

Don't have any contributions, but just saying that I LOVE this thread! So many songs are great, musically I like the "Dirty Rotten NUmber/ Finale" and "Like Zis", and lyric-wise, I like "Love is My Legs."

All of these lines are great, but I ALWAYS sing along/laugh with on my OBC: "I just want somebody to love me...FOR MY MONEY!"
Another subtly clever one: "The way the c'est la vie is French." A great homophone - Say "La vie" and "C'est la vie"!
Rosencrantz: "Be happy - if you're not even HAPPY what's so good about surviving? We'll be all right. I suppose we just go on." - from Tom Stoppard's Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Dead

Ok: Now it's time for more of my favorite moments from the show!

When André get's all nervous right before "The Reckoning" he says (I think) something about the moaning and the hotel, I posted the almost-correct quote on the other page. I'm not sure if that's what made him nervous. Remeber: I'm always wrong. And when he goes into his shirt pocket and reaches for what he thinks is a tissue, but it's a pair of stocking and he wipes his face with it and then he relizes what it really is.

And when Freddy gets tied up.

I'm definatly going to think of more.
