I play it mostly when I'm driving my car. Hopefully, the cd will not wear out... This is not a lethal case, but I just enjoy hearing the songs... especially the overture... and "As We Stumble Along.."...It's 11:29 p.m. cst... I have to go to bed...

"Noel [Coward] and I were in Paris once. Adjoining rooms, of course. One night, I felt mischievous, so I knocked on Noel's door, and he asked, 'Who is it?' I lowered my voice and said 'Hotel detective. Have you got a gentleman in your room?' He answered, 'Just a minute, I'll ask him.'" (Beatrice Lillie)

The Drowsy Chaperone is really fun. Whenever I'm in a bad mood, I just start playing it on my iPod. It never fails to put a smile on my face.

I think The Drowsy Chaperone is definitely fun, but really quite overrated. If it was produced this season, it probably wouldn't have been such a big deal, but it was a cute show in a crappy season. It's mildly entertaining, but not as good as I thought it would be when I purchased the cast recording.

I can listen to "Show Off" and "Toledo Surprise" over and over again.

I haven't seen it yet. So, most of the staging tricks and the jokes in the script are still unknown to me, but I fell for the show just from the score. I would love to play the Man in the Chair, because I AM the Man in the Chair.

I'd love to MimiLovesRoger, but I'm broke and in Pittsburgh and it's expensive and in New York. (And I know that I'm being redundant by using "expensive" and "in New York" in the same sentence.)

I'll be seeing it when it comes to town as part of the "Broadway" series.

I can't believe the number of errors I found in a lyrics website for "As We Stumble Along". Using the "Drowsy" lyrics from the CD booklet, I found 13 errors. Is that a fairly common occurrence with lyrics sites? from RC in Austin, Texas... It's 12:49 p.m. cst... I need to shave....
BY the way... I'm going to have a hard time watchig "both Tonys" tonite... What I'll prolly do is to put my 13 in tv/vcr set next to my tv (that has cable), side to side in my living room. Then, I'll be able to watch two programs at once... I hope that doesn't sound demented?
