That sounds fun, wish I could go but I will be out of town! Someone post a review!

I'm going! Not sure what the deal is with the after party, but it should be fun. QtKt-How did you manage to get row A seats?? Telecharge kept on coming up with "none available" when I tried to book, so I went to the box office last Sunday and there were only 3 seats left. I bought the 2 that were together, but they are all the way last row to the side. It's a small theatre so it should be fine, but I was thinking, how did QtKt get row A? I'm happy for you though :)

Purim was incredible! What a great show! My best friend Rai and I were in front row, center, which was amazing...
We were running a little late, so when we got there, Kristy Cates was singing.
Then, Judy Gold performed, she's a comedian and she is just HYSTERICAL! She worked with Seth on The Rosie O'Donnell Show.
Mary Bond Davis~ absolutely incredible, she sang "My Handyman", woman didn't even need a microphone, what an incredible voice, she was fantastic!
Lets see, who else was there... John Tracey Egan, Joey Mazzarino, Ana Gasteyer... "The Mentalist", Ehud Segev bent a spoon with my friends name on it with his mind, i'm telling you, i was in the front row, and i can't see any other way that he could have done it, he was incredible!
Saycon was there, and she sang "The Wizard and I", and was fantastic, as always. That girl is going places, she has such a ridiculous voice!
And now to Johnny... he sang "Taylor the Latte Boy" (which I LOVE), and he looked great, he was all red from being in LA, he looked awesome. (If you can't tell i'm a huge Tartaglia fan!)
So at the very end, Kerry Butler and John sang "Suddenly Seymour". It was just incredible. Absolutely fantastic. John told me afterwards that it was really emotional for him and Kerry because they have been friends for 15 years and that was the first time they've sang together onstage. He was touching her hair, and they just really got into it, it was an incredible performance, they were amazing together.
So, all in all, it was a great show, i'm so thrilled I got to go!
Sorry for the short, random review...! I'm just exhausted...

I'm glad everyone had a good time and I'm soooooo MAD that I didn't go!!!!

I LOVE JT's rendition of Latte Boy and I've wanted to hear Saycon for a long time.

Next time there's something like this, force me to go!

Mirramar-i tried to force you remember.... lol. next time i'll work harder

QtKt-i think it was Kerry Butler, she was singing "Gee Wiz"? She was the second perfromer. Sarah Clamer (sp?) from Mamma Mia was first singing The Life of the Party. She was really good. She was the only performer who was at the after party besides for The Mentalizer. His part was cool, but i think it went on a little too long
