If you have not gone yet, go go go! Today is their final performance. Please don't miss the chance to see one of the funniest couples on Broadway one last time.
If you have not seen the show in a while, here are some reasons you must see it now:
1) Jonathan Pyrce has completely lost his mind When he first started, Jonathan Pryce played Lawrence very straight and austute. Now after six months, Mr. Pryce is just bonkers with the role! His zaniness and zeal have made his Lawrence an absolute joy to watch. If you have not seen him lately, you must see him now!
2) Norbert Leo Butz - Stronger Once Again Now seven months removed from his damaging vocal node injury, Norbert has finally improved to near perfect volumes. His GBS and Freddy are killer. Hurry up and see one of the finest performances on Broadway!
3) Luci Arnaz You'll love her Muriel. Just as splendid as Joanna.
4) Greg Jbara What needs to be said?
5) Sherie Rene Scott What needs to be said?
6) Sara G. Her Jolene is even better now than ever. That squeal!
Plus, the ensemble is as lively and excitable as day one. Please, take a chance this weekend to see DRS and enjoy these fine performances. You will not reget it!
I was going to get tickets for the show on Sunday but something came up. In any case, they will both be missed. Especially Norbert. I wish I could go. Oh well.
Thursday night, 8PM, 5th row, Can't wait. Hopefully, Sherie, Sara, Gregory, and Lucie will all be in that night as well so I can see them together one more time.
Drench yourself in words unspoken. Live your life with arms wide open. Today is where your book begins. The rest is still unwritten.

ryan, do you want to kill me now? rip my wounds deeper? I'm dying to see them again, since I have only seen them together one time.

You must remember all the same that at the crux of every game is knowing when it's time to leave the table... And it's important to be artful in your exit. No turning back, you must accept the con is done... It was a ball, it was a blast. And it's a shame it couldn't last. But every chapter has to end, you must agree. ~Dirty Rotten Scoundrels~
There's a special kind of people known as show people. We live in a world full of dreams. Sometimes we're not too certain what's false and what's real. But we're seldom in doubt about what we feel. ~Curtains~
It is a far, far better thing I do, than I have ever done; it is a far, far better rest I go to, than I have ever known. ~A Tale of Two Cities ~
Sorry Dre, I will get their final speechs dont worry. And speaking of which, perhaps a BWW luncheon beforehand for DRS fans? We could meet around 1:15 PM and have lunch at Juniors or the Playwright Tavern.
Who will be replacing them? I am seeing the show in augest and wondering. Will it just be there understudies? And will Sherie Rene Scott still be in it?
Brian D'Arcy James is replacing Norbert. I forgot the other guy's name that is replacing Jonathan.
