I cannot be blamed responsible for the PMS-ive rage of other people.

Any idea who is in consideration to play Mimi, Whitey? :)

I'd be happy to answer any questions...

Are Idina, Taye, Jesse, and Adam actually confirmed?

[Whiteboy Spice]

Posted: 10/29/04 at 6:52pm

No one's signed a contract, but we all want to do it. There remains a question as to whether or not Taye will be able to work around his Kevin Hill schedule, though, but all should be resolved one way or another soon.

When are Wicked Spice, Mommy Spice, Law and Order Spice and Nubian Spice going to register on here?

Sorry, couldn't resist.

Oh man, you've just opened a Pandora's box. I'm on a deadline that I've gotta meet right now, but you can expect a barrage of questions.

First thing - when is your contract with LSOH up? I'm excited to see it in Seattle next week!

You've probably been asked this before but...

how would you compare the experience of film acting to live theatre? And which do you prefer?

GO WRITE, TIFF! you can do it...I *believe* in you...we're being good and not distracting you on other threads, too...

Thanks for answering, Anthony. Now you're in for it after you asked for questions! :-P

I'll be leaving LSOH when we close in San Diego, on December 12th.

And I generally prefer acting in theatre, although I have had some great film experiences as well. I love the fact that theatre is happening right there, in the moment, only for the people who are actually there in that room at that time, but I also love the fact that film is forever. I enjoy the technical challenges of both.

Man, now I won't get to see you in Little Shop. Oh well, this is greater news you doing the movie (hopefully). You go have fun and kick serious butt.

What was it like working on L&O: SVU with Chris Meloni, Mariska Hargitay and Jane Krakowski?

[N0tThatGirl213]

Tiff...

...yes? *guilty look*

Okay, I could ace my criminology paper OR I could ask questions to Anthony Rapp. Are you going to challenge my priorities, now that I'm sitting here with 28 minutes to go until deadline?

lol I feel like your mother now...which is even more amusing, considering you're older than me...

[Whiteboy Spice]

I had fun on L&O, but mostly I was relieved and happy that I *finally* got to be on one of the Law and Order shows. I was practically the only working actor in NYC who hadn't appeared on any of them, not once. I join the Red Sox in ending a curse!

How do you feel about fanfiction?

I have to say it's really surreal (in a good way) sitting here asking you questions while listening to the RENT OBCR...

ooh, are you a Red Sox fan? (I'm sorry, that question is completely irrelevant and random, but I'm a fan and am still on cloud nine about their win! Most people on here are Yankee fans. If you're a Yankee fan, that's still cool).

[Type_A_Tiff]

More importantly, are you a hockey fan?

[Whiteboy Spice]

Posted: 10/29/04 at 7:15pm

What is fanfiction?

I'm a Cubs fan first, and a Red Sox fan second. I grew up outside Chicago, and spent the summer of 2002 in Boston, so I do have actual ties to those teams. I know I live in New York, so I "should" be a Yankees fan, and I do respect them, but I would rather root for underdogs, I guess. Although the Red Sox are now no longer underdogs, are they?

But the Cubs sure are.

Sorry, baseball and tennis (and the Olympics) are my sports. I don't have anything against hockey, but I haven't yet gotten bitten by its bug.

Fanfiction is a genre of writing in which authors/fans (like me) take characters from an existing story or show (like RENT) and use them in stories of their own.

[Whiteboy Spice]

Posted: 10/29/04 at 7:17pm

Fanfiction sounds cool. I'd be curious to see examples of it.

[OneBlazeOfGlory]

Posted: 10/29/04 at 7:18pm

And NotThatGirl definately writes some awesome stuff

[#1Elphie]

Posted: 10/29/04 at 7:18pm

oh, I'm a huge tennis fan as well (I'm a baseball and tennis girl).

Did you have a blast doing Hedwig and the Angry Inch? (I LOVE that show.)

Also, what's your opinion about broadway bootlegs? (Just curious. No implications here.)
