THE PIRATE QUEEN is the most awesome musical ever ever EVER staged

I listened to THE PIRATE QUEEN on CD again and again last week and it's like so awesome.......it was probably the best show on Broadway. Why didn't it get any Tony nominations which it would surely have won? I was watching the Tony nominations come in and when it didn't get nominated for anything, I was like......WTF??? And I was then like so sad for weeks after and couldnt concentrate at school and like couldnt eat properly. It was like a big part of my life at the time and on CD I can like listen to it for ever and ever and keep the memory going in my head.

I'll bet LESTAT was great too. I saw a clip of it online last year and it looked awesome. That should also have got some Tonys for sure but it like didnt.

When I come to NYC, I want to be in a show and like be a big star and like earn like big bucks impressing everyone with my like talents! I dunno what show to be in yet. I might just like get some practice in a show that like isn't that big a hit like Wicked or Mamma Mia.

No, no. IN MY LIFE should have won the Tony! How can you go wrong with lyrics like "fuck, suck duck." Sondheim should be taking notes!

but it is so true. A friend of mine I met on holiday is well into something called Legally Blonde which on the phone he just cannot shut up about. I mean shut up already. But I wish.

When we went out the other day he was in full ....um, what did he call it...ah yes, Bell-Bundy Drag. OMIGOD that was so embarrassing. And he wanted me to be his b*tch...em...well he kept calling me something like Bruiser!

Well between you and me it wasn't on holiday we met it was a form of hospital where we were treated with something they called delusional therapy..as if, but that's like another story.

I don’t know why I am even bothering but I will agree with you on one point. Pirate Queen did deserve a Tony nom for choreography.

Okay, I'll give you that. It absolutely did. Pirate Queen was better than some others I've seen, but it kind of made me laugh. It had some really gorgeous music, and some of the worst music I've ever heard, all in one show. The sets were nice, though, and the choreography was wonderful.

I really liked "The Pirate Queen." I think we can all agree though, that it was quite the slap in the face when the show didn't get one Tony nomination....not even costumes?? That's pretty obvious of it's glarring ommission.

If only Pirate Queen could have held on for a few more months they would have been selling out every show this past week at the Hilton.

"My Mom's friend saw it and she said it was awesome too. She sees alot of theatre...she's a theatre goer..."

Oh, ok. Now it's your Mom's friend. But I thought it was your friend's mom? Keep your lies straight. Because, even earlier in this thread, you mentioned your friend's mom:

"My friend's Mom saw it and she loved it..said it was awesome......"

Besides, ssfun I thought Legally Blonde was the best show ever?

I think the only reason this thread exists is because the on on "how much a performer makes" is being dumb (at least for me. It won't let me see any of the new posts).

Awesome is not the word I would attach to TPC.

It was a very enjoyable show but not awesome.
