I was just on the website for this show (http://www.iloveyoubecausethemusical.com/index.htm) and I really like what I've heard of the music that was available to be downloaded. Does anyone know how likely it is that a full recording of this show will be released?

(I apologize if this is an ignorant question)

It opens on Valentines Day... so they'll probably be a OCR soon after that.

My friend is in the show so I have been fortunate enough to hear the full score. It's great! AND they have an awesome cast. I will ask about the cast recording and see if they have any dates set.

My friend knows the composer and she got to sing the actuary song from this show and has raved about the music.

Too bad Lisa Howard couldn't do it... She's great on those selections on the site.

Tonya Pinkins: Then we had a "Lot's Wife" last June that was my personal favorite. I'm still trying to get them to let me sing it at some performance where we get to sing an excerpt that's gone.
Tony Kushner: You can sing it at my funeral.

Stephanie isn't doing Lisa's part, but the part of the actuary I'm pretty sure.

This is going to be great!

How long is the run going to be?

I was wondering the same thing. I'd definitely love to see this show -- both the music and actors are fantastic (mmm...Colin...) However, I don't think I'll be able to manage a trip to NY until later next year. I hope this show has a nice, *long* run.

I went to a reading this past summer and I was blown away.
It is very cute, and Stephanie and Colin were wonderful.
I think it will be a hit.
Check it out.

Well.
The writing is adorable. The cast is exceptional. I would expect nothing less. Kate Monster's loss is Stephanie's gain.
LOL.

There are getting to be way too many "must see" shows for me for my three day trip in Feb...
