Ahhhhhhh Mer! Less than a month before you leave. Yikes, I'm going to miss you. I'm crossing my fingers that they will be here well thruough August.
I'll miss you too! If I find out they're closing in July or something, I'll try my best to come back for their last night, but hopefully they'll make til fall.
HAPPY 1ST BIRTHDAY ON BROADWAY SPELLING BEE!!
and now look where the 'little show that could' is!
WOW. It's been a year already? Gosh how time flies. Happy birthday, 25APCSB! Here's to many more years of s-u-c-c-e-s-s!
Yay Bee!
Mer, like you, I won't be in NYC for the summer, so I will have to make a special trip back to see the show, especially for things like certain people's last days.
Haha! That picture is great! And congrats to the Bee!

I just tried to buy tickets for the adult show, and I don't think they're on sale. I'm sooo excited.

I saw spelling bee, when it first opened on broadway and I wrote a review, and i met the cast at a barnes and noble. I was like, crying. They read it and loved it. Then. they performed the "I Love you" song, and I was so,SO happy. I had seen the show once since then, and I just can't even believe how great the show is. I am just so excited for their anniversary! Yay!
OMG yay! Thanks for the info.
I'm so sad! I'm in NY June 1-6th so there's no way I can go. You guys will have to tell me all about it.

AHHH MER YOU SUCK!
It's pretty ironic that I was ready to come back and see it anytime and then, out of all the dates they could have picked, they picked one of only 6 days this summer that I absolutely cannot go on.
I liked the adult shows, but I prefer the regular show. Much more heart. The adult shows are funny, but just silly at times.

I usually work on Sundays, but I'll see what strings I can pull...
I wish one of these adult shows would be recorded!!!
That would be great if they did.

The cake is very well done. Looks delicious too!
C-o-n-g-r-a-t-s spelling bee!
Aww! How cute!
Fun show tonight, I sat on the bench in the front and was abused by the cast.
Fav moment: During Marcy's speech with Jesus, a cell phone goes off in the audience. Marcy asks, "Jesus, I was wondering... (*phone rings*), do you like to salsa?" Everyone laughed, the person turned off the phone, and then she continued with "I was wondering what would happen if I didn't win today..." It was fun.
An audience speller named Hunter Elkins was described as "Hunter likes to run around chanting to the other spellers, I am Hunter, you are my prey."

Woohoo--as I told you, I won yesterday, but gave the tix to my friend. Their ad libs are HYSTERICAL regarding the spellers. Absolutely hysterical.
