Posted: 8/19/08 at 9:31pmThis is a ridiculous request that should be disregarded and ignored at all costs.

why is this request deemed less important than any of the others people ask. what do you care if someone posts the information?
A simple request does not require a snarky comment.

i know, i have been on this board for a long time and sometimes I am shocked at the lows people will go just to have posts on the board.
Oh well. I must, i must practice my snappy comebacks.

That's the boring front cover if you haven't seen it yet, and as to regards to the cast list/bios, it can [finally] be found at Talemusical.com !
The songlist might be on there too, don't know.

Posted: 8/20/08 at 5:51amyou would have preferred what as less "boring" cover art? dancing guillotines or peasants in hot pants?

Posted: 8/20/08 at 10:54amThe usage of the color and font reminds me of Scarlet Pimpernel (not the first version, but the version that doesn't use an image of Percy).

Don't worry, Sydney23. Some posters here seem to think they have seen it all, and they are the ultimate critics. And then how they go on about how Barbour is not "humble" enough in his Playbill bio. Go figure!
I happen to consider the Playbill for Tale well chosen: Simple, classic, and the binding image of the show, with which it can be identified. This is all that is needed.
It is a far, far better thing to get the content and power of a show, not from its cover, but from what becomes manifest within its stage presence. Therein lies the surprise of getting far more than what the cover actually rendered. This can be applied to judging people strictly one dimensionaly, without getting their true essence, as much is missed this way.

Posted: 8/20/08 at 5:29pmI WAS KIDDING! But why is it that the playbill artwork looks like I did it in Photoshop in 5 min? Did the "LUPONE GYPSY" people do this?

Posted: 8/20/08 at 6:10pmOh well. Can anyone scan?

Posted: 8/20/08 at 7:26pmRound and Round is back in the show? It was cut during the Sarasota previews - only a few days before opening night. I guess Aaron looks a lot less goofy dancing that Derek did.

Posted: 8/21/08 at 1:49pmThey may just have it listed due to it underscoring a scene... that's what we did in Sarasota, but I can't remember if we kept it in the song list... and btw- Derek didn't dance in that number! If he did, he probably would have looked just fine as he has more dance experience than some of us that were in the cast! :0)

I'm very confused as to why the third poster said "This is a ridiculous request that should be disregarded and ignored at all costs."
what is so ridiculous?

I saw a video clip of him and I thought he looked goofy. But he's one of my favorite people so my calling him goofy is a compliment!
