wait? For Wicked, Shrek, Young Frankenstein or the stock market???

I once heard someone describe her (Ruthie Henshall) singing as sounding as though she's trying to swallow a whole meatball slightly larger than her windpipe. (The same person compared Michael Ball's singing to sounding as though he's sitting on a washing machine on spin cycle and Colm Wilkinson's to a man with a paralyzed lip trying to eat cottage cheese.) --- Schmerg_The_Impaler

It was green when I was there last October. But that was for Ramadan.

That's cute.
It's going to be lit up blue in December for my university's 800th anniversary, which I think is pretty funny...

It doesn't shock me. They lit the Empire State Building Gold last year to celebrate the fact that Lion King had been on Broadway for 10 years. They don't do this sort of thing for all shows just the big milestones for a particular show.

My question is how much are the producers paying for this to happen?
And it's been lit green for awhile now, I thought. At least it was when I was last paying attention.

My question is, where is the "Emprie" State Building located? The op might want to correct the spelling.
