I met one of my friends ten years ago right around the time she was obsessed with this show she saw at the NYTW, BRIGHT LIGHTS BIG CITY. I thought she was a bit unhinged seeing the same show ten times in a month and promising to name her cats after the up and coming star, Patrick Wilson; but I have to say, when I finally got around to listening to the cast album when it was released years later, I loved it and wish I saw it too.

Starlight Express the 1984 London version..I was on the floor with amazement after listening to "He Whistled at Me" since it felt so electro-pop-ish and I wanted soooo bad to see it on stage. Luckily, I saw it....in German... at the Starlighthalle built in Bochum. You'd think a show in a small industrial town like Bochum wouldn't have a big crowd after being open for 21 years. Nope, it had a big crowd..and I was able to see a rendition of my favourite song from the show, this time shortened to 2 minutes and retitled "He'll Whistle at Me" The show then became a mixture of 1992 New London and 1984 Original London and no longer followed the trend of '89 Broadway. Still to this day I wish I could see a video of the original "He Whistled at Me" performed by the late Stephanie Lawrence

[title of show], definitely, but my ultimate is "Light in the Piazza." I'm not usually the person who listens to recordings of shows that I have not seen, but I took a chance on this one and just fell in love. I bought the libretto and have read it a few times. I am dying to see it onstage! I would love to get my hands on some sort of video of the original production though, because I love Kelli O'Hara and Matthew Morrison!

Yesterday, I bought "The Story of My Life" on iTunes...now I have to add this to my list. I was getting all teary eyed on the bus! Someone please explain to me why they were not eligible to be nominated? They did open didn't they?

GatorNY, Story of My Life only ran for 5 regular performances and that wasn't a long enough run to be eligible for Tony Awards. I don't know what the exact regulation is but it was determined that it was too short of a run.

THE LISBON TRAVIATA. Whenever I read that play I hear Nathan Lane's voice as Mendy. Wish I could have seen that. They're doing this at the Kennedy Center in Washington D.C. this spring with John Glover as Mendy and Malcom Gets as Stephen. Ack, I wish I could go.

SARAFINA. Why didn't I see this?!

Gator,
they recorded Piaza for television. You can find it if you ask around. They did a really good job in capturing the performances. Especially Victoria Clark's.

Most of the musicals I really wish I could have seen are the older ones.
I recently discovered Goodtime Charlie and just love love love the score. Ann Renking is amazing.

....but the world goes 'round
