I sure would like to see that show tonight.

I think much of the music from Nine is beautiful, especially Unusual Way. I am so upset I was never able to see it.

I wish I could see Nine as well. I've always wanted to see Chita Rivera live. My favorite song is 'Folies Bergeres.' I tend to go for those weird/fast songs.

I loved the original with the late, oh so missed Raul Julia and the late, well I miss her, Anita Morris.

The original was one of the most brilliant productions I have ever seen... bar none.

Original and revival = amazing.
Sets and costumes for both = wonderful.

I especially loved the scenery the second time around.
That Weeping Wall! Unbelievable.

NINE is a show I hold near and dear to my heart. I thought the revival was brilliant! Mary Stuart Masterson gave one of the greatest performances I have ever seen, and probably will ever see. Antonio Banderas was brilliant, and should have won the Tony. I adored the entire thing - and I think NINE is one of the greatest shows ever written - definitely one of the best scores.

Gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous.
I just want it to be still running.
Three times (once original and twice revival) was not enough.

Front row at the most recent revival!

Antonio splashed water on me!

Fun times!

...What happened next, was stranger still, a woman breathless and afraid, appeared out of the night, completely dressed in white. She had a secret she would tell, of one who had mistreated her. Her face and frightened gaze, my mind cannot erase...But then she ran from view. She looked so much like you...

I was fourth or fifth row - first time revival and mezz, second time. Being close to Antonio was very cool.

Ok, there must be something in the water this week because I've been on a "Nine" kick for the past two days. When I saw this thread I was like "wow, somebody else is having Nine cravings too?"

My mother saw the original when she was pregnant with my little brother, and I grew up hearing her obsess about it.

We made a special trip just for the revival. And I saw it twice in a row. I loved every second. And I'm still sort of... haunted by it.

It was really amazing for me listening to the music I sort of already knew and actually SEEING things play out.

Now what would you say if today I started over? Without a thing but this taped together four leaf clover And I'll pretend like everything is already alright And I'll run toward the sun till the castle's out of sight

I loved it, we were in the last row and the tix were still $100.00 and worth every nickel! It was a matinee and Antonio poured out his heart on the stage! Truly a great memory.

Also loved it! Great seats and one of my favorite theater experiences. Loved Antonio and Chita and felt priviledged to get to see it.

I've been having fantasies that this was still open for the past two days.

This thread seriously makes me happy, I didn't realize it was in the back of other people's minds as well.

The cast recording (I've got the revival on now) makes me intensely happy. And in my fervor I've gone out and gotten an avatar which is something I've never had.
