Hi, all ... I've had the Spelling Bee CD for awhile now, but I'm going to see the tour in Baltimore on Sunday so I've become a 24/7 listener. :)

I'm so excited! I'd love to get picked to be in it, but the theater here is so big it probably won't happen. Thanks for spreading the spelling bee love and getting me hooked! :Spelling Bee

Jenny,
Welcome to the best BWW board! I'm glad you are hooked on the bee. I know you'll love the show!
ElphabaRose - thanks for the review. In S.F. I actually liked Stanley Bahorek's Leaf more than Jesse's on Broadway. I don't think the Panch from SF is in Boston. I'm happy that Panch is singing more, because it seems like he should. In SF, the I Love You Song was amazing with the three of them. And I love Lisa, Derrick and Celia too.

You're right. The Panch in Boston is new. Jim Cashman and his wife, Michelle Noh (standby Logainne/Olive/Marcy) stayed in California.

I just saw this in Boston last night...even though I've been working almost every night since it started. Something I wasn't too keen on seeing, just no interest, I am now converted...some of the most memorable characters I've ever seen. So much heart for such a small show...and I can't sing the praises much more than I have been!

Glad to hear that Boston loved it!

I don't even find the need to review the cast, they were all excellent in every way and I absolutely loved them. Might have to go to Boston again to see it a couple more times.

Here are some pictures of me with the cast:

Aww!

What were some of the new words/definitions/sentences? Or at least, new to you. Spelling Bee

I think imposter was the only new word, though I hadn't heard a few of the sentences (Mexican, Jihad) in awhile since they were changed in NYC.

OK new question: Was anyone at Celia's last? I love Celia alot, and I heard Jesse sent some kind of video to talk about her. He did say she was his "girl." aww.
And I'm terribly sorry if this has already been posted.

Ok. I'm sorry, I didn't notice there was another thread about it. Oh well, this thread deserved a bump anyway.
