I celebrate both Christmas and Hanukkah. So I got stuff for Hanukkah already. I didn't actually get tickets to anything yet but I got lots of money. So in my eyes I got a lot because I will buy myself tickets with the money I got.
In The Heights Tickets- February (Lin's Last)
West Side Story Tickets February 28th (My Birthday!)
Guys and Dolls Tickets- Sometime in February
Lotto a few times for multiple shows
And I actually got Funny Lady and Cabaret DVDs!
I also got iTunes Gift Card and I bought Sunday OBC so far.
And Amazon gift card that I will most likely spend on some Broadway movie or CD or book.
Everything is based around Broadway this year.

I got a wonderful Broadway wall calendar and a raise, with which I will be going back to NY in February to see Billy Elliot again.
And we haven't had Christmas yet!
A click for life.

Posted: 12/24/08 at 10:36amHoward sing Ashman. It's always great to hear how the songs were born. The Smile disc is peachy, Ashman and Hamlisch sing with so much vim and vigour, their enthusiasm is palpable, who knew from listening to this, it could end so badly.

The one thing I asked for (a ticket to A Little Night Music) I've already been told I'm not getting.
My parents were going to get it for me because they knew how much I wanted to go ~ it was the ONLY thing I had asked for ~ but they're both retired and their retirement funds took a big hit in the stock market crash, so Daddy's already said that I'm not getting it.
They could surprise me, but since I was informed yesterday that I've got six boxes under the tree, I'm not counting on it.
So... I guess we'll see what happens.
LIVE THAT LESSON!!!!!!

I'm not getting anything theatre related from my family since they don't like theatre.
I got myself my own present though and that is happening on Friday. I'm seeing my favorite Elphaba in Wicked. Who happens to be in my pic on here.

Posted: 12/24/08 at 5:31pmMy parents and I celebrated Christmas on Sunday cause my mom is working tonight, tomorrow and Friday and we're leaving for Florida on Saturday. I got a few gifts (all wonderful) but nothing broadway related. I actually treated myself to James Barbour's concert yesterday and boy was it worth it.

DefyGravity777 ~ I hope you enjoy your experience at Wicked! :) That sucks that your family won't get you things you would like just because they don't though.

If having my next month's trip's hotel paid asa Christmas present counts, I'lll be seeing two or three shows.
Also got last-minutes bus trip tickets to "White Christmas." Our local bus company had some cancellations, discounted them deeply (like half-price), so my partner and I thought ...what the hell. We had a sucky weekend last weekend, so some holdiay cheer won't hurt.
