"No two shows are alike in the making. Each show is a living piece of your life in a small unreal world with its own character and integrity; its own new set of memorable experiences and incredible happenings. You begin to love and adapt to its strangeness. Dreams harden into substance. Values come into focus. You wish it would never end. The dream world vanishes like mist before a rising sun; part of you vanishes with it. And back you land in the real world with a thud- fogged, uneasy, jittery, difficult to get along with. There is only one cure. A new show. A new, small unreal world; new visions, experiences, incredible happenings. Again you love it, adapt to it, wish it would never end. But end it does. Another part of you vanishes. That's show business."-Anonymous

'Despise' is a strong word, but for me, it applies to:

Cats
Phantom
Side Show
Seussical
Fosse

I tried and tried, but did not "love" the following:
1. The Three Penny Opera - I fell asleep during parts in the theatre hahahaha
2. Spamalot
3. Drowsey Chaperone (kills me to say this since I love Sutton Foster...)

I was a fan of everything else.
I made a list of all your faults, it was quite detailed and lengthy too and when I read it through I missed you. Your like a classic Eagles song, you just cant help but sing along even though it sometimes gets annoying too. I just know I want to be wherever I can wake and see you there next to me. **High Fidelity** Love is what I do **The Wedding Singer** Xanadu - Best NEW Musical of the Season!

All the lights are misty in the river
In the darkness, the trees are full of starlight
And all I see is him and me forever and forever."

I wouldn't say despise, but The Frogs and Grey Gardens were the two most excruciating professional theatre experiences that I can remember.
Whatever happened to class?
