Greg Jbara Love Thread Part 5: Keeping the love for our true prance alive! — Page 21

Hey everyone. I'm leaving for NYC in about an hour. I'm super excited about this trip. Even though I'm not seeing the show I plan on stage-dooring DRS' last. Hopfully I'll be able to meet some of you.

Have a great weekend everyone. I'll be back to posting on Tuesday.

Yay, I saw DRS! In a nutshell:

*Tom Hewitt was really great. His Love Sneaks In was beautifully sung.
*Norbert is a freakin' GAS. Maybe a bit too physical, but still hilarious nonetheless. He's the reason to see the show in the first place. I'm really glad I got to see him live and in person!
*Laura was pretty good. I'm very partial to Sherie Rene, though...but still. Laura had a pretty voice.
*Hollis (Muriel) was alright. Her Muriel was more perky than Joanna's. I prefer Joanna's interpretation of Muriel. It's ditzy, sophisticated, suave, and what the character should be.
*Drew (Andrew) was also alright. He kept slipping out of his accent. =/ Which made me realize this; nobody can play this role like Greg can. Nobody.
*Jennifer (Jolene) had an irritating speaking voice. But I thought she was good...
*Dirty Rotten Number and Love Sneaks In were in a lower key for Tom. It worked just as well, though.
*The lighting for The More We Dance was spectacular! In fact, I really wasn't paying attention to the dancing because of it.
*Give Them What They Want > that new opening number
*Er...my mom watched downstairs for Act 2? LOL, she didn't like it all that much. She had food and drink that she couldn't bring into the theatre, so she took a chair and watched the monitor.

Oh, and by the way, Greg Graham (DRS dance captain...you probably know who I mean) is the associate choreographer for the tour! ^__^ That made me really happy.

Overall, I thought the show was pretty good. I mean, there are other musicals that are better than DRS, but I really had a great time and enjoyed myself thoroughly.

No stage dooring, unfortunately. My mom had to rush home to drop me off so she could see her boyfriend. Bah...

Anyway, that's pretty much it. I've got to get to sleep, since I have to wake up at 6:30.

The cam was such a great suprise to come home to.

And Dre: I don't have classes at all on Wednesday's so I'll be hear listening to your show!

---

The advantage to having no classes on Wednesday...I can listen to the whole show Dre!

---

OMG! Dre, that is amazing. I want it! That is so freaking cool....in a strange and creepy kind of way. But I really wish I had money to bid on that, really I do. That would pretty much make my life to own Alan's mohawk.

.....wow. I really am a bit too obsessed with Alan, arn't I?

Missed the majority of the show. Got home from shopping just in time to catch the last 4 songs or so. But, they were great as always.

Panda: Fishing much......

Kerrie: How was Brian @ 'Don't Quit...' last night? I'm sure you were in heaven. lol.

Speeking of the Rent tour, I just got my tickets in the mail today. Front row center Mezz. I'm going with two friends and we're all pretty excited. And the new Roger is Oh, so very British.

Happy Birthday Liz!

Why is Ewan in the City anyways? Filming something?

$50 to have a new photo taken for my licence. Ew.

John Lithgow was on The Saturday Early Show today. He sang a few songs from his new children's CD during the Second Cup Cafe segment. It was cute.

Edit: Just got back from seeing the tour of RENT. It was freaking fantastic! I'm planning on going back for tomorrow's matinee. I'm excited.

Edited again: Looks like I wont be going back after all.
