I have a game. Go from Stage door to Stage door when all the shows let out and have a drink for every person waiting for an autograph. Ending with the Gershwin theatre

in response to the Blood Brothers one: after seeing that show in London on a night I wasn't going to the pubs, I ran out of that theatre and went to the nearest pub to drink that show out of my head.

I'm not creative enough for this thread :)

Guys and Dolls- Everytime there is a "Follow the Fold" reprise, instrumental or otherwise.

Fiddler on the Roof- Anytime anyone says "Tradition"

Sweeney Todd- When the name "Johanna" is sung.

Zanna, Don't!- Every song that contains the word "love" in the title.

Tommy- Everytime "Deaf, dumb, and blind" is sung.

Pippin- Anytime something happens that you don't quite understand the significance of.

This is the funniest thread EVER.

Godspell: Every time they say the word "day".
High School Musical: every time they mention creme brulee (hopefully you'll pass out before you have to listen to any more)
Ragtime: Three ways, everytime you hear either a New Rochelle character singing, an African American character singing, or an Immigrant character singing.
Pump Boys and Dinettes, Big River, Cats and Oh, Calcutta!: Every time they make you want to shoot yourself.

I would get through Big River pretty safely...the others...

Big: Every time they make a reference that was topical at the time but now seems hopelessly dated

Merrily We Roll Along: Every time a year is sung.

Cats - ah, hell, going in without already being drunk would be a mistake.

jasonf--you crack me up!!
I was about to say the exact same thing for Phantom (every time a song melody is repeated, and that of course goes for any Webber show).
The Cats comment too was hysterical.

Thank you. :)

No pressure on any future posts, right?

Take a nip for every instance of "heiling" or mention of Hitler during "The Producers".

"Let's see....take a shot whenever a bell is heard during 'The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee'"

I like that one. Can you imagine sitting in the audience and everytime the bell rings, everybody takes a quick shot? I guess it's best in that kind of theatre.

I personally liked Man in Chair's version during the Tony's.

Hairspray-Every time there is a race reference.

Assassins- Every Gunshot, also works with the Sweeney throat slashes.

In Rent everytime they say the word "you" ( Without you, I'll cover you, Today for you)

For most of these ideas, I think we'd be a drunk in a matter of minutes.

In SIDE SHOW: Any time the twins introduce themselves.

Every time there's an internal rhyme in a Sondheim show

Every time there's any sort of metaphor relating to nature in a Schwartz show

Every time there's a money-note in a Webber show

Every time there's a waltz in a Rodgers and Hammerstein show

Every time there's a list in a Porter show

Every time someone touches their head or turns their wrist in a Fosse show

[Marguerite Chauvelin]

Any time a Schwartz lyric thouroghly confuses me.

Little Shop: Everytime you see a bum

Sound of Music: Everytime you see a nun or hear a religious reference

jersey boys- everytime they say f*ck

aw hell, everytime pesci said f*uck

In any musical based on Victorian drama:

-When the humble heroine has her angsty solo
-When there's a secret wife somewhere
-When the sullen male lead sings an evasive ballad overwrought with metaphor
-When the set does something incredibly amazing...but the show is still boring
-When the music has a raptuous orchestration... but the show is still boring.
-When there's a gorgeous waltz, ballroom scene, or other celebration with resplendent costumes... but the show is still boring.
-When the name of the house or estate is mentioned with ominous significance.

And in general...
take a drink when Frank Wildhorn releases a new recording of Jekyll and Hyde.

The LIGHT In the Piazza- everytime someone says something in another language you don't understand.

Everytime someone uses an imaginary "OZ" word in Wicked.

Posted: 6/27/06 at 11:10pm

For everytime someone screams in Into the Woods
For everytime they say "into the woods" in Into the Woods
For everytime the whistle goes off and someone is thrown down the chute in Sweeney Todd
For everytime sex is mentioned in Rocky Horror Picture Show
For every musical theatre or old Monty Python reference in Spamalot

every time Stephen Schwartz uses a half-rhyme in a lyric of Wicked.
