The Offical Passing Strange Love Thread (Scaryotypes Unite) — Page 38

I agree with you on Working the Wound....it is easily one of the strongest songs in a show of strong songs. While I haven't seen ITH, what I have listened to is great, but it doesn't have the character of the PS music. Particularly in the subtle lyric changes -- the pain, her pain, your pain....the wound, her wound, your wound....

What really struck me in the video (now that we have a little more insight into the Stew/Heidi "collaboration" is how this song may have well come out of their breakup....watch how he points towards her towards the climax.

Saw the show tonight and wow is the best word to describe it. Really impressed with the band and love the staging. I hope it gets the Tony nods but I just don't see the old guard voters going for it. In fact there was an entire group of seniors in the back of the orchestra ready for the show with their hearing devices; needless to sayt hey didn't need them for this performance.

Nice audience on hand and Kevin Bacon was in the house, so I can now claim a degree of seperation if someone needs it in the Keving Bacon game.

Hi Benky. I'm planning another party (post Tonys). See the other thread: PS Party 2

I appreciate that you like the OBC, but please don't compare anything in this show to Rent. Please don't. It's not that I don't like Rent, it's just that it's so unnecessary to do so.

After FINALLY seeing this amazing show on 5-31-08, I am officially a SCARYOTYPE!!!!

I concur on MTF3 not being a Scaryotype. And welcome to the Scaryotypes Luvcaroline!

Thanks for posting the Daniel Breaker interview. I love how he incorporated the other shows on Broadway into what he was saying. I especially agree with his statement on the great diversity of shows on Broadway right now... a little something for everyone and so much to appreciate.

I'm really hoping he gets that Tony, but like he said... it'll be a great night either way!

J*--- thanks for what? ...i forgot??

Matt, if you have NOT seen PS, it's impossible to get an inkling of the stage dynamics from the CD alone. Take a chance, spend 25.00!

Yeah, I figured it was that kind of show. Sort of like Spring Awakening, which disappointed me greatly when I saw it. But I can remain open-minded about Passing Strange and I hope seeing it turns me into a fan. It's happened before.

I guess I made a mistake...someone asked Stew what song he wil performed.. he said 'Part of Keys" not the whole song....I thought I heard him say... part keys..part amsterdam.. sorry my bad!
