Yea, that's what I figured but if anyone knows for sure, could they post please?

I'm doing a paper about how old and actor/acrtress really is compared to their "character age."

Why does Celia seem to be everyone's favorite female Bee cast member? I love her, but where's the appreciation threads for Sarah, Deborah, and Lisa?

I can't play favorites with this show, I love everyone in their own special way.

My favorite from tonight- Todd, who went on as Chip Tolentino. His Jesus was one of the funniest things I have ever seen!!!

And Sarah is fully my favorite.

Living in California and being in high school might make that difficult. :)

But man, I wish.

Oh, sad!

I think Sarah said there would be a screening in CA at some point too, so keep your eyes open for it!

I am so there.

I really hope it gets picked up by like, Comedy Central or something. Saltzberg, Ferguson & Feldman..you cannot beat a team like that.

Sarah Saltzberg is my favorite too! Her character isnt my favorite, but the way she plays her character...I dont know how to explain it, but she is awesome!
And I love Deborah just because "I Speak Six Languages" is definitely my favorite part of the show!!! Sooooo funny

I think at one point or another, I have had a favorite song or character in the show.
Outside of the show, I love them all. I get so sad whenever anyone leaves the cast!

It's always sad to hear anybody leave any show...

Jesse Tyler Ferguson was always my favorite. Then he left the show so it's on to my second favorite..Sarah Saltzberg. Hooray, life!

Random Spelling Bee thing that got me really excited: I was wearing my Spelling Bee shirt today at school and I had my souvenir book with me (my friend hadn't seen it yet) and I had pictures of the show in my binders and about 5 people stopped me and asked if I was working in the show or something.

That REALLY brightened my day. Just think..

"Hey, you're in Spelling Bee, right?"

AH, I wish.

^Haha people actually asked you if you were in the show? I'm going to wear my Bee shirt more often, and if people come up to me and ask I'll be like "Why yes. Yes I am. Thank you for noticing"

Seriously. I should have said "I'm a fan" in a complicated way like "Yes, i'm the head director of all official promotional activities."

But instead, being my awkward self, I went into this long detailed synopsis of the show.

Advertising for the show is always good!

Lots of fun tonight at the Bee, one little mess up sent everyone into gales of laughter (but I was the only one who knew something went wrong).

Good times!

This might have already bee asked, but what day are you seeing the Boston cast, Liotte? I can't wait to hear what you think of them, because I love them.


One time, Patti LuPone punched me in the face...


It was awesome.

Besides the kid getting the words right at the end?

Someone messed up a line at the end of the show, and everyone started laughing. It was just funny to me.

I was there tonight too! I noticed all the giggling at the end of the show too. It seemed liked when they all went upstage before the final moments, maybe someone said something to them all...and when they went into their whole "in the future" bits, they were all looking down and giggling hysterically.

Oh, and the line about the girl dressing up "going to a spelling bee and not a broadway show" totally cracked me up!
