I was in NY last night showing my friend how to get to the Royale Theatre from Penn Station (she's such a NY virgin, yet is working on Anna and the Tropics!) Anyway, I digress - - I bought The Last Five Years music book, and inside it proudly boasts that the New York leads were Norbert Leo Butz and Renee Scott.
I thought it was kinda funny, someone obviously didn't check too well. But I remember someone posting not too long ago about how a cast member was left out of the Gypsy Cast Recording booklet (with the CD) and was wondering if anyone has any interesting stories of the sorts!!

There's no apostrophe in "typos!" re: Typo's you've seen...

While I realize the word typo isn't possessive, it looked funny; hence my addition of it.
Typographical error - - I should have been more precise.
My apologies.

David:

Just curious since you plugged Deborah Gibson's album earlier and now you are making typos. Any chance you work on the Fynsworth Alley website or email newsletter? They all seem to be riddled with typos and plugs for Deborah.

Nah, I'm a restaurant manager just outside of Philadelphia. I loved Deb when she first came out (when I was 12-ish) and have since "stuck with". I'm very realistic about what she can do, etc. but I threw it out there to promote a little...
As for Fynsworth, while I know someone who works for them, alas, it is not me, but I concur with your comment about THEIR typos...
Either way, I'm glad Namo pointed it out!
stay well,
d.

I agree it looks funny without the apostrophe, and you don't have to apologize, it was just amusing to see a typo based on typos.

I went by a used record shop and it had a neon sign that said:

RECORDS
VIDEOS
CD'S

And I thought, "Well, that's wrong, but I can see why they did it that way."

And Jack, don't be putting down Fynsworth Alley, I LOVE that label! Funny that you, of all people, would bring it up.

Namo:

You can LOVE any label you choose. I just happen to be amused that their website and emails to me come with many typos.

Why is it funny that me, of all people, would bring that up? What makes me special in this scenario?

I remember seeing Kerry O'Malley's name somewhere as Kelly O'Malley.

And over at sondheim.com, it seemed like more often than not, posters would spell Joanna Gleason's name Johanna. Now why would they do that??? I blame it on Sweeney Todd.
