Anthony, I have a couple of questions.

I assume there will be a soundtrack for the movie...can you confirm this?

Also, do you know when the national tour pics of LSOH will be up on the official site? Has Paul been in to take some shots?

I love hearing about all this, Anthony.

May I ask how Glory sounds? I've heard Adam take different notes with it than what's on the OBCR and I was just curious as to how he would sing it now.

Also, can anyone tell me what Day Magnolia Tree means? I think I'm missing something.

And you should *hear* the way that Adam's and Rosario's voices blend in I Should Tell You. Amazing already, and it will only get better.


This is making me really happy... I'm starting to get really excited.

Insomniak, since Anthony's next post was headed "Jour Quatre," (French for Day Four, as I'm sure a lot of you know), I think it's safe to assume "Day Magnolia Tree" was kind of like Cockney rhyming slang for "Day Three."

Hola,

Lol. Not rude(at least to me) a little funny perhaps in just the way you wrote it.

Glad to hear things are going well with rehearsing, etc.

Hi Anthony (and everyone else on the board! I feel like I know you all, I have been lurking for so long!)

My husband and I saw you perform in Henry V in Boston a few years ago, and you were fantastic! Would you ever consider doing a public theater performance again?

And about the whole 'people being so overwhelmed that they are shaking and can't speak' thing? I was one of those people...at UMASS Amherst about four or five years ago...you thought it was funny that my roommate did ALL of the speaking, even though I was the fan, and you had to remind me that I wanted a picture with you...but I am painfully shy around everyone, not just you! :)

lara, i don't know if you were here for this, but we sort of imposed a "no bumping" rule for this thread because the thread-jacking was getting out of hand and everyone was going off-topic. it was clogging up the thread and anthony couldn't find the questions people asked him. anthony has agreed to find this thread when it gets a couple of pages back.

just wanted to let you know before people start yelling at you

Hello Anthony...
I am ashamed to say that when i met you i was shaky and couldnt speak lol. It wasnt becuase i was scared or anything I am just nervous going up to people asking them for their autographs...it always makes me feel uncomfortable.

It sounds like you have a Theatre filled scehd. really hectic though.

I saw you in Little Shop and you were really good!
I wasnt going to see the show but when I saw that you were in it i new i had to. I am happy I did.

Anyway I must go finish my AP US Hist. Homework,
Good luck with the movie and Little shop!

I was more nervous meeting Anthony for the first time then I was meeting Tori Amos. Years down the road I'm able to hang out with him and not be starstruck, how, I'll never know. Celebs are people just like us. I've never really understood how people can get short of breath and freak out at meeting a celeb.

Now if it was Sarah Jessica Parker....then I might scream and cry. But only for her.

Sarah is probably one of the most approachable stars I've ever met. She has the most genuine personality you'd ever meet. I just think she's a sweet heart.

Anthony- are you guys going to be in New York filming any parts of it? I know they said the exteriors are being shot in NYC- does that include scenes with you guys in them?

Is La Vie Boheme being done in a replica of the Life Cafe?

Anthony, quick question before I go off to class and waste my parents' hard-earned money, but you've done some shows at the Pittsburgh Public Theater (I still have the issue of City Paper with you and Adam (Rapp) on the cover). What do you think of the Pittsburgh theater scene, and well, the Steel City in general?

And now to head to history...blah...

another advanced apology if this has already been discussed.
i, for one, am devasted that they are filming RENT in san fran. now granted, the east village has turned into a big frat party with french ex-pats thrown in for good measure... but i think the city, as SJP always says, is another character in the story.

anthony - can't you get mr. columbus to change his mind? please!
