And homeless people, so I wonder what was so odd about it.

Is "sceen" the British spelling? Like "humour"?

Shouldn't it be called The Threeeuro Opera?

I like the Threequid Opera, myself.

Not in the UK, Bobby. We don't want no stinking Euro here.

My knowledge of England comes from watching Spice World, and that's about it.

Is this why WIW closed? Because of the penny?

I love Spice World!

Apparently they had a shortage, Kringas.

re: Random Thought...#21

Yes Kringas, audiences could not accept the fact that a penny was in an English musical, and refused to attend.

But we've gone a bit Burnt Sienna on a brand new member, which is kind of mean.
