I have a feeling that "non-sexual" love you have for Norbert will soon change. Maybe. LOL

Haha, as much as I love Norbert, you can keep that term for yourself. :P
ETA: Matt_G posted at the "Idina in LA run???" thread on the main board that word has it that Idina and Kristin might be reprising their roles for the West End (assuming that's what he's talking about) opening of Wicked. Too bad I don't think Norbert would be willing to pack up and move off to England if he had to leave his daughters here with their mother. I'd die to have the chance to be able to see Norbert and Idina again, since I've never gotten to see any of the OBC anyways.

Random post for the night:
I was just looking at my CD insert for my Dirty Rotten Scoundrels cast recording and had a bout of excitment that consisted of inwardly squealing "Oh my God, I'm seeing Norbert in a month and a half!" and nearly crying out of pure happiness.
Me = a total loser for Norbert
What am I going to do when I actually MEET him? Oy vey.

A, what's Norbert's one solo song from Feeling Electric about his character's wife and how she left him alone and all of that? Really depressing, but beautiful song. Norbert wrenches my heart on that one.
Also, wasn't there word about a production of this going up in Seattle with Michael Arden as the son?

I think if he were still out, we'd have heard about it by now. I'm pretty sure he came back today though, so I don't think you have anything to worry about. :)

It's a (semi-)oldie, but a goodie.

Do any of you have that issue of Vogue with Jennifer Lopez on the cover from earlier this year? It has a picture of Norbert, Sherie, and John in it with a short article about DRS. I meant to buy it while it was on shelves, but I never had the chance.

Ouch.
If I ever lose my tape of this years Tonys, I'll cry. A lot.
WHAT is Gregory doing in that screencap from his webcam that's your avatar? Haha. It's amusing.

I'm sure Steve hasn't seen it because everyone says Norbert gives Steve a run for his money in that role. Plus he's probably busy, though I don't know.

Did you guys see the thread on the main page about the DRS talkback they had last night for a group of students?
https://forum.broadwayworld.com/readmessage.cfm?thread=855952&dt=062405125409
The part about them mentioning how he was having vocal problems and could hardly talk, and then him plopping his head down on a bag and continuously laying down made me feel bad. I bet he can't wait unitl his week off so he can actually get better.

Have fun DRS, but holy ****, can you please not use THAT many !!! the next time? There's absolutely no need for that many. We get the idea: you're excited.

I'm flying in to NY Friday and seeing DRS Saturday night. I'm such a nerd. With all this talk about Norbert being sick and being out 2 weeks ago...I'm LITERALLY having nightmares that he won't be in the show Saturday.
I know I'll still like the show without him (my roommate saw it w/ Joe Cassidy as Freddy and said it was fantastic), but...sigh! I will be so disappointed.
I know I'm a Norberr geek when I'm actually in FEAR of not seeing him....lol.

You both should consider yourselves lucky you even got a picture with him, no matter how crappy you think you look. I'm 99.9% sure I won't get one with him at all.
He and John have become Kristin/Idina-like divas, I love it!
I don't necessarily think it's a "diva" thing (even though I realize you said you were j/k), but more of a "we need to get you guys outta here ASAP so just sign and go so people aren't blocking the door" - heh.
If any of you think I've been acting like a bitch lately, sorry. It's been a long week and it's only just begun!

Oh well. There's nothing we can do about it, is there? Wether Mr. Martin goes to see the show or not is beyond our control so there's no point in any of us getting all huffy about it. LOL
And yes, Norbert is astounding in TL5Y. I've been listening to "Nobody Needs To Know" on repeat while I sleep the last few nights.

I wondered how he felt about Norbert Leo Butz winning the Tony Award a few weeks ago. Without a pause, he replied, "Has anyone ever deserved it more? I just thought: 'yay!'"
Honestly, who DIDN'T think that? If there was one person going against Norbert for the Tony (besides the hardcore Python fans, I'm sure).. I'll be shocked.

Did you guys see the picture from John's unveiling of his painting for the Broadway Wall of Fame?

I like that color on Norbert. LOL
