That slideshow was wonderful. I saw the show tonight for my third and final time. This was my first time seeing the show since I saw it last June right after the Tonys. It is amazing to see how the character of Margaret has developed and even changed since last I saw it. This is a testament to Victoria Clark and her brilliant acting. I mean, she's still finding new discoveries even as the show is closing. I am very sad to see the show close. It's truly the most beautiful show I've seen.

I'm sorry I wasn't really aware of the show until the pbs broadcast. I saw the Tonys performance, which did nothing for me. I'd heard of the show and what it was about etc, but I only really appreciated it after I saw the broadcast. I must admit that soley based on comparing the recording, the Tonys, and the broadcast that I really enjoyed Katie Clarke's Clara. I hope the tour eventually makes its way here! So far no dates are even scheduled near me!


So, that was the Drowsy Chaperone. Oh, I love it so much. I know it's not a perfect show...but it does what a musical is supposed to do. It takes you to another world, and it gives you a little tune to carry with you in your head for when you're feeling blue. Ya know?

I thought I would renew this thread because today is officially the last day Piazza will be on Broadway. As sad of a thought that is, I am very excited to see what the actors and actresses do as they continue on with their careers. A lot of them have been catapulted even more into the Broadway stage, and I am excited to see what else they will accomplish.
As for the show, it will always remain in my heart as my favorite show and one that changed my life. I know that sounds corny, but this is it. This is the one.

The show has the opportunity to live on through the PBS showing and through the tour. Thanks for all of the memories and the opportunities to make friends!
