I'd say I'm being totally overwhelmed by all these new DRS/Norbert pictures, but that's just not true. KEEP 'EM COMING!
By the way? Adam's hair scares me.

My 2 cents--listen to it beginning to end without distraction. Read the booklet for background. The first time I put it on, I was baking a cake, distracted,and thought, "Why did I buy this?" Now, I am obsessed with it. Norbert's voice is amazing!
Let us know what you think.
Yeah, we're on page 26!
Today's the day!#634
Posted: 3/17/05 at 8:07pmThank you--Norbert looks adorable in this picture, don't you agree?

I think they'll do "Dirty Rotten Number" because it showcases both leads, but the same could be said for "All about Ruprecht", which I think would sell more tickets.
Mature Dignity--what else have you seen Norbert in? L5Y? If yes, can you tell be about his performance in it?

Speaking of Jane Curtin....just found this..from Playbill.com
Director Gordon Davidson, actor John Lithgow and film/TV writer and business entrepreneur Chris Campbell will be honored by the National Corporate Theatre Fund next month.
The Fund's Annual Chairman's Awards Gala will be held April 4 at the Essex House and will feature Jane Curtin, recently on Broadway in the Noises Off revival, as Master of Ceremonies. David Hyde Pierce, Anna Deavere Smith and Rosalyn and Irwin Engelman will present the honorees with their awards. Lithgow will receive the Theatre Artist Award, Davidson will be given the NCTF Leadership Award, and Campbell will be honored with the Corporate Leadership Award.
The evening will begin at 6:30 PM with cocktails, followed by dinner at 7:30 PM. The black-tie event will also include a silent auction and a musical presentation directed and choreographed by Dirty Rotten Scoundrels' Denis Jones and a tribute performance by The Light in the Piazza's Kelli O'Hara.
Norb in DRS!!!#766

I know basically nothing about The Confidence Man, but I know it's something he did awhile ago and he has a song on there called "Pain..." somethingorother. I can't remember. *Blush*
And I've heard mid-May (everything from May 10th to the 17th) for the release date of the DRS cast recording.
DRS and American Theatre Wing seminar with Norb/Sherie#780
Posted: 4/8/05 at 3:53pmRe The Confidence Man It was a show that never ended up being produced but in the end they did a recording w a number of people recording different songs frm the score.(1998 I think) Norb is on the 1st track w Yancy Arrias & the chorus "New Orleans is Coming to Me" He sounds great on it! The other song is "Pain Humbles" & is more of a patter type song but Norb does such great things w the lyric & his voice that my only regret is H doesn't do the rest of the recording! ( Can there BE enuf fo Norbert singing?) The rest of recording is not so special but I found it worth it just for the Norb tracks.( This is SO sad! Don't encourage me....)
So what will it take...#814

So what will it take...#816

I heard people got like, multiple copies of the CD. Anyone grab me one?
Oh! And any word on Drama Desk nominations? Nevermind, I just saw that they're not being announced until tomorrow. I'm dumb.

B-b-but.. Chrys.. you said you were going to get us all extra copies of the CD! *Sob*
Oh well.
New Norbert LOVE!#1003
Posted: 5/3/05 at 5:08pmHe'll probably want to keep doing comedy if he can, but I suppose he'll take whatever he can get. A job is a job, you know?
Tony Awards--today!!#1118
Posted: 5/10/05 at 1:17pm
Yeah, I'll admit that I'm scared for Norbert now since Tim and John both got nominated. Even if Norbert is better than both of them, they're huge names compared to Norbert.
But let me toss in a congrats to Sherie for her first Tony nod! Even though she probably won't win that either... eeeeeek.

I'm still worried that Spamalot will be this years The Producers. *Sigh* I just hope it doesn't leave DRS totally in the dust, ala The Full Monty.
Personally, I think Tim Curry would be pissed off if he found out people think he got nominated because of him having been in Rocky Horror. That was 30 years ago! I know I'd be fuming if that were the case and I were in his shoes.
Tony Awards--today!!#1136
Posted: 5/11/05 at 2:14pmI just hope you're right. If he doesn't win, I may have to lock myself in my house for a few days to mourn properly or something.

Who is submitting a question for Norbert for the Q&A?
I already did. I asked him what his most embarassing moment during a show was. Part of me thinks my luck won't run with this one like it did with Patrick Wilson, so I doubt it'll get answered.

Posted: 5/12/05 at 3:12amSherie looks gorgeous, but the lipstick is a little too dark and it frightens me slightly. Haha.
Tony Awards--today!!#1177
Posted: 5/13/05 at 1:00pmI got an email from Amazon a couple of days ago saying my order has shipped, which included my DRS cast recording and Pray for the Soul of Betty's CD (that's Constantine Maroulis' band for those of you who don't know). So I should get them either tomorrow or on Monday.
Another award for Norbert and DRS!#1190

When are Drama Desk awards announced? If he snags that one, I have a feeling we'll be smelling a Tony real soon.

Posted: 5/14/05 at 9:46pmThat new picture on the main page of the DRS site just made me almost bust a gut laughing and I don't know why.
