I wasn't planning on going tonight, but I might.

As per telecharge, though, there's only 1 seat left and it's on-stage. No thanks.

I'll be going this weekend on Saturday. I look forward to it. Hopefully it will be better than the film haha, though that's not going to be hard. Hopefully it will be fun and campy.

They have student rush, Munk.

"You travel alone because other people are only there to remind you how much that hook hurts that we all bit down on. Wait for that one day we can bite free and get back out there in space where we belong, sail back over water, over skies, into space, the hook finally out of our mouths and we wander back out there in space spawning to other planets never to return hurrah to earth and we'll look back and can't even see these lives here anymore. Only the taste of blood to remind us we ever existed. The earth is small. We're gone. We're dead. We're safe." -John Guare, Landscape of the Body

I feel like my permanent home should be in the "Interchangeable Blondes on Bway" thread. I have no idea which blonde is starring in what anymore.

The box office people said that they would have rush available for all performances two hours before the curtain. $26.25.

Can't wait to hear about tonight!

I am mad at the show though. It's in the theatre where the amazing JAY JOHNSON: THE TWO AND ONLY played. Now, I know it's not the show's fault....but it just feels like it is. lol.
