I agree with Tulita. I saw ITH before I saw PS and the the Tonys and I loved ITH, but then when I went to se PS I realized how many Tonys PS should have won. The one that REALLY gets me is how Boyd won over Daniel Breaker. I really regret that the first time I saw PS was closing night because I know that I would have seen it many more times. I'm happy that I was there for closing because it was CRAZY! I've never been to a show before in which n audience has gotten up mid show and danced while the cast and band just kept on improvising. I hope the movie comes out soon so I can see it again and also so more people can witness the magic of PS.
Yeah the closing performance was a bit insane. I'm glad I was in the back so that I could jump around with a bit more ease during Keys, lol.
yeah, FROGS_the memories are "now and forever", and I don't mean CATS!?
Yay!
Good to have this thread (and the Scaryotypes) back.
Long live Stew, and may the film kick ass at Sundance.
OK, there are 63 pages on this thread so forgive me if this has already been mentioned...
My daughter and I were watching SpongeBob (you heard me) and there is a montage when SpongeBob is looking for Gary with a song Gary Come Back playing . We both screamed THAT'S STEW!!
So we youtubed it and sure enough it was Stew singing the song Gary Come Back. I loved Stew before, but now that he has a song on SpongeBob...well, now he's my hero! lol!
That's awesome... and I'm totally youtubing that video right now!
hi alicia - can you post the link, please?

I'm going to both. Should be great.
going to the lincoln center gig! it was my hanukkah present from the folks! SO SO SO excited!
I'm going to the show at Alice Tully Hall.
I was in the Drama Book Shop yesterday and they had the vocal selections and libretto. Both were 16.99. I got the libretto and it has three great forwards by Heidi, Stew and Bill Bragin, former director of Joe's Pub. Although I think most of Bragin's article is culled from the liner notes of the cast recording.
I ordered the libretto and vocal selections on Amazon. Should be getting them in a few days!!!!
Any word on where the film is gonna go? I just Got Rent Live today and it is making me want PS really badly..

Here's another review: http://www.filmthreat.com/index.php?section=reviews&Id=11525
Also, it was announced a week ago that "Passing Strange" will play SXSW Film Festival in March. Beyond that, there doesn't seem to be any new news right now about its future.
why am i not going to sxsw!?!?!
Elizabeth and the Catapults... St Vincent... Emily Wells...
now Passing Strange! ACK!
and i even live in houston. sigh.
UGH! Seeing those clips is like being SO hungry while there is a delicious dinner just...out..of...reach!!!
That "Berlin" opening - WOW. And could Rebecca be any more gorgeous?!
It would be a HUGE help if you guys could help me out.
I love this quote from PS and want to use it in a paper I'm writing (giving credit to ps of course) I can't find it though!
It goes something like, "The mistakes you make as a kid are the realities of adulthood."
I realize I'm probably butchering it, but if you could help it would be AMAZING! Thanks!

I think you're referring to this from "Passing Phase":
Wish we could talk about
How the means will not prepare you for the ends,
How your epiphanies will become fair-weather friends,
How death will make you lower your defenses,
The only truth of youth is the grown-up consequences.
That's it!!!
Thank you so much! Every line in this show has such a deep meaning.
