I had to tell him, 'No, no, darling. Opening nights don't usually look like this.' It's usually a dark bar with a bottle of vodka." ?Chitty Chitty Bang Bang's Jan Maxwell plus i proudly share the title of the shortest member over the age of 10 with wickedrentq!

I've met many b'way stars, but the one that I would like to be friends with is:
Lillias White (met her twice)
Rosie Perez (once - such a sweetheart)
Queen Latifah
Dolly Parton
(Okay, the latter aren't b'way stars - but they will be, and out of everyone, those latter are the two that I could so see myself being best friends with)

"Do you know what pledge time is, Andrew"? said the PBS Executive. "Yes", Lloyd Webber replied. "My 50th birthday special must be one program that gets done a lot." "No", mused the man from PBS heedlessy. "Not so much. Our Stephen Sondheim Carnegie Hall concert. That's a big one." Spoons, forks and knives seemed suddenly to suspend their motion in horror, all around the table.
