Sueleen Revisits Purlie with a Bigot

Posted: 2/6/06 at 3:51pm

So I forced my bigot boyfriend to see Purlie. He didn't want to because he hates Black people but I told him this was a great show and would he just see it for my sake. Well he loves me so much that he agreed! And guess what! He loved the show! He thought it was fabulous! Mind you he still hates black people but he hasn't stopped singing Walk Him Up the Stairs since we came home!
Ah, the magic of theatre.
PEACE.

Damn.

That's so wrong, it's right.

Ever watch a bigot during "The Cadillac Car" sequence?

OK, Kringas, that made me tired. I might have to go lay down for a while after that one.

I do my best.

In all seriousness, my late (though not great) grandmother had an irrational hatred for all people Hispanic (or even those she suspected were Hispanic). She had a "lovely" variation on the common pejorative for them that I won't repeat here. If only I'd taken her to see West Side Story, perhaps she'd have changed her tune.

My (great-)Aunt hates fat people.

Are there any shows about fat people?

Ya know I was singing "How are Things in Glocca Morra" the other day and Bubba asked me if it was from a musical. I told him it was. Now he wants to see that, too! Baby steps, baby steps.
PEACE.

Oh, yeah.

I was just testing y'all...

I will take my cacomorphobic Aunt to HAIRPSRAY.

He'd probably like some of the people from Missitucky.

I've seen a couple of productions of A CHORUS LINE at community theatres that were about fat dancers. Does that count?

Sueleen, did he pay for the tickets? I bet you could forgive almost anything as long as he kept you rolling in theatre tickets.

Thank goodness no more rush, lottos, or SRO.

Honey, if you ever wake up feeling very Farrah in the "Burning Bed," I got extra matches (and some lighter fluid).

Can you recommend a musical I can take my husband to that will make him straight?
