Blood Brothers
Side Show

Yes!

...What happened next, was stranger still, a woman breathless and afraid, appeared out of the night, completely dressed in white. She had a secret she would tell, of one who had mistreated her. Her face and frightened gaze, my mind cannot erase...But then she ran from view. She looked so much like you...

After the embarassing RAGS concert last week, we won't be seeing that show for awhile...

It wasn't on Broadway, but Bare: A Pop Opera needs to have another run. Preferably not limited.

And if they can get Michael Arden again, it will be on broadway in a matter of minutes.

And Guys And Dolls, because I have loved that show ever since I was about two and would kill to see it performed professionally. And I was just in it.

I'd love to see a well done production of Gigi. Today it could be much racier than the movie.

Why? The original film's discreet, witty, yet suggestive handling of the material is helluva lot more erotic and sophisticated than anything the low-rent boneheads on Broadway or Hollywood could come up with today. What do you expect Gigi to do--flash her pudenda?

Gosh I like that word, whether it's singular or plural. I do feel the movie handled the subject matter discreetly and in a witty manner as you say. But since the story is about training a courtesan, I feel there is some room on this side of 1958 to make a new version more suggestive without being purulent.

"Side Show"
"Mack & Mabel" (maybe a transfer of the John Doyle London version?)
I'd love to see "Funny Girl" done again and I hope "Evita" makes a transfer.

Some people paint, some people sew, I meddle.

I hope the wiz goes into the Broadhurst if it transfers.

Funny Girl!
I second that one, of course it'll be very difficult to find someone who could sing that score well.

I have NEVER met Cheyenne Jackson. I have never hung out with him in his dressing room, he did not tweet me, he never bought me a beverage, and he mostly certainly didn't tickle me. . .that is all.

I don't think so. I mean, no one will ever do it like Barbra, but other people could handle it.

Some people paint, some people sew, I meddle.

I would've said South Pacific, but it looks like it's going to be revived in 2008!

If someone has suggested this on another thread, forgive me. But, considering how delusional she is and how she is currently living the part:

Jennifer Holliday in SUNSET BOULEVARD

Cheyenne Jackson tickled me. AFTER ordering SoMMS a drink but NOT tickling him, and hanging out with Girly in his dressing room (where he DIDN'T tickle her) but BEFORE we got married. To others. And then he tweeted Boobs. He also tweeted he's good friends with some chick on "The Voice" who just happens to be good friends with Tink's ex. And I'm still married. Oh, and this just in: "Pettiness, spite, malice ....Such ugly emotions... So sad." - After Eight, talking about MEEEEEEEE!!! I'm so honored! :-)
