Good show...hard on the feet and too many tall people and women with big hair.
Quick post...so I don't know all the songs or singers by name.
"Momma Mia" - Winner Takes it All - she did an amazing job...held out those notes.
(The sound system sucked...many were under miked or not even audible - the girl from "Chitty Chitty" when the three of them sang "Truly Scrumptious".
Ave Q - It's OK to Gay
Jesse from 25th - "Im Not that Smart"
Kelly - Light in the Pizza...main song I guess
Cheyenne and company - Hound Dog, mixed with Teddy Bear
Frenchie from Rent - 5000 plus - closed the show
Gary Beach - I Am What I Am - PERFECT
Harvey and Andrea - Do I Love You - VERY CUTE AND GOOD
Motormouth Mabel - I'm Here or I Belong Here - Hairspray
UGH - All I Ask of You - Phantom _ BORING - Why is this show such a hit?
Chicago - If You're Good to Momma - she was GREAT!
Producers - If You've Got it Flaunt It - Ula - sound was too low
Sweet Charity - Dreams - the two female co stars
It was great seeing everyone...very Gay too....or at least Gay friendly.
Next year they need to put the stage higher, and check the mikes too....
Play to the back of the audience people...:)

Also.....
Chitty Chitty BangBang - Truly Scrumtous. very bad sound, could not hear the kids at all.
and the Sweet Charity was the 2 female costars understudys. Anikka and someone else.
Mary testa was AMAZING, but my favorite was Gary Beach.

Posted: 6/1/05 at 1:35pmSo they had the two understudies sing "Baby Dream Your Dream"? That's odd.

No DRS or Spamalot? BTW-I think the 2 who sang "Baby Dream your Dream" were Janine LaManna and Kyra DeCosta (sorry for any spelling errors..)..they performed on the Drama Desks's as well.
YaY for Gary Beach!

NO DeCosta and Janine LaManna did NOT perform today. It was Annika and Joyce. I got their autographs afterwards. They were both very very good.
Joanna Gleason and Tim Curry were there presenting an award. Tim Curry was an ass and ignored everyone asking for autographs and just stood around staring at the crowd. Joanna did sign though and was very nice.

Posted: 6/1/05 at 2:15pmWhat is Mary Testa in right now?
#13re: STARS IN THE ALLEY!!!!!!
Posted: 6/1/05 at 3:09pmThat's so awesome! I saw her as Domina in "A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum" several years ago, and I also own the recording of "Marie Christine". I bet she's great as Mama!

I don't know if I've ever had such a good laugh over song titles before. My favorite is "Light in the Pizza"
Thank you for telling us about the afternoon though. I was in Shubert Alley yesterday and last night thinking about how I would want to be there. But I did SRO for Spamalot instead. And was worth it.

I saw Joyce Chittick go on as Nickie when I saw the show. She was sassy.

Posted: 6/1/05 at 9:06pmI had fun today! Was a bit upset that Norbert & Sherie, Sara & Chris, Matthew Morrison didn't show up but was great fun. When Kelli was waiting for the music to start and the crowd was silent, I screamed "You go, girl!" Love her!
#20re: STARS IN THE ALLEY!!!!!!
Posted: 6/1/05 at 9:12pmNo Cary wasn't there. Frenchie sang Seasons of Love by herself. It was an interesting rendition!

Posted: 6/1/05 at 9:20pmOOOh, it sounds awesome, i wish I could've been there--stupid school.

Posted: 6/1/05 at 9:31pmThey really should have had people stand in height order or something. I am not VERY short, but standing behind about four guys that were at least 6-6'3 made me feel like a midget. I felt bad for people even shorter than me.
#25re: STARS IN THE ALLEY!!!!!!
Posted: 6/1/05 at 9:38pmI had the same problem, TGIF! I thought I got there fairly early, but I still had all these tall people in front of me; I could hardly see. I'm 5'2, so I guess it wouldn't take much to block my view.
