When you're reading Without You and someone sees the byline and asks who Anthony Rapp is. You precede to go into a whole tirade about his work (Dazed and Confused, Adventures in Babysitting, YAGMCB, LSoH, Rent, Hedwig, Open House...) and all the person says when you're done (about 8 minutes later) is "Oh. That's the Rent guy." And you want to cry.
Or maybe that's just me...
I completely agree with the soundtrack thing.
Me: With Broadway shows, it's a CAST RECORDING. With movies, then, it's a soundtrack. Get it right!
My friend: *holds up CD* this is the movie soundtrack.
Me: Well...yeah...but...no. It sounds wrong.
When a common exchange is
"Look, there's *insert theatre peson's name here*! I love him/her/it!"
"What? Who are you talking about?"
"But they're famous!"
"Only in New York."
And you begin to comtemplate how to get away with murder...
1. Ted Allen: Everyone has an interesting life if you ask the right questions.

3. "I love shrubs that are historical." -Johnny and The Sprites
4. "We're not singing it to you, we're singing it for us." -Rosario Dawson, about La Vie Boheme
5. "The best moments in reading are when you come across something - a thought, a feeling, a way of looking at things - which you had thought special and particular to you. And now, here it is, set down by someone else, a person you have never met, someone even who is long dead. And it is as if a hand has come out, and taken yours." -The History Boys
6. "Pass the parcel. That's sometimes all you can do. Take it, feel it and pass it on. Not for me, not for you, but for someone, somewhere, one day. Pass it on, boys. That's the game I want you to learn. Pass it on." -The History Boys
