If Percy Blakeney were in Les Mis....
Percy: Sink me! If it isn't Javvurt!
Javert: Zsah-vair, it's pronounced Zsah-vair.
Pecry: But it's spelled J-A-V-E-R-T Javvurt.
Javert: Repeat after me Zsah...Zsah....
Percy: Oh! Zsa-Zsa! Like the Gabor sister! Well I personally have always prefered Eva.
Javert: (Looks for gun)

You're reminding me of people you hear at the movies asking questions every ten seconds, "Who is that? Why is that guy walking down the street? Who's that lady coming up to him? Uh-oh, why did that car go by? Why is it so dark in this theater?" - FindingNamo on strummergirl
"If artists were machines, then I'm just a different kind of machine...I'd probably be a toaster. Actually, I'd be a toaster oven because they're more versatile. And I like making grilled cheese" -Regina Spektor
"That's, like, twelve shows! ...Or seven." -Crazy SA Fangirl
"They say that just being relaxed is the most important thing [in acting]. I take that to another level, I think kinda like yawning and...like being partially asleep onstage is also good, but whatever." - Sherie Rene Scott

Posted: 8/5/06 at 1:54pmLes Mis, A Chorus Line, High Fidelity, and Mary Poppins. Also curious about Legally Blonde. I'm excited for this season, it should be pretty good.

(finally TWO Boublil and Schonberg musicals on Broadway at once! The world is suddenly looking a little rosier)
Apparently you completely missed the 80s and 90s when MISS SAIGON and LES MISERABLES dominated Broadway in addition to those other two British blockbusters.
At this moment, I am most looking forward to THE PIRATE QUEEN.

I know I'm lame, but I'm most excited for 'A Tale of Two Cities' (that is if it's still coming)
'Spring Awakening' and 'Grey Gardens' are a close second because I missed them.
