The Caroline, or Change cd. Many things made it worth the price (besides the entire cd )

The entire first scene (Washer/Dryer)
Veanne Cox saying "Magnawlia, chamaylia, azaylia, YAAAAAA'LL..."
Dotty and Caroline
The Bus singing about JFK's death
Roosevelt Petrucius Coleslaw
"1943"
Lot's Wife (of course)
Salty Teardrops
Emmie's Epilogue

-Watching Frank Wood play the trumpet in the most moving scene I've ever seen on the stage in my life. (SIDE MAN)
-Watching Marie Mullen & Anna Manahan destroy each other on stage. (THE BEAUTY QUEEN OF LEENANE)
-Watching tears fall from Blair Brown's face as she sang to her husband about her dead childhood lover "Michael Fuery" (JAMES JOYCE'S THE DEAD)
-Sitting in the 6th row and seeing Adriane Lenox (Understudy for Tonya Pinkins) tear up "Lot's Wife" and jumping to my feet to applaud her.

"Noah, someday we'll talk again. But there's things we'll never say. That sorrow deep inside you. It inside me, too. And it never go away. You be okay. You'll learn how to lose things..."

Cabaret's final weeks: seeing my Adam in full drag.
Hearing him hit "the note" (which he will never again sing) on the AIDA OBCR.
"Full frontal puppet nudity"
The trumpet solo in the Gypsy overture.

A work of art is an invitation to love.

Heather Headley doing Elaborate Lives and anyone doing Gods Love Nubia.

Adam's Evil Death Glare in the closing AIDA show. (It sucks that it was the closing show, that wasn't cool, but if it was any other show and with the "Sam from The Apprentice" glare, I would've been snickering for a good long time. I'm snickering just thinking about it.)

Hugh Jackman in BFO.

Masquerade in POTO.

"Blonde." - the line in Wicked (and am I the only one who cringes at the "I feel Wicked" line? It's as if they put that line in just so the teeny-boppers can go, "Oooh, she said the name of the show!" - no disrespect, NoDayButToday. :) )

"It's not always about you!!!" (But if you think I'm referring to you anyway, then I probably am.)

"Good luck returning my ass!" - Wilhemina Slater

"This is my breakfast, lunch and f***ing dinner right here. I'm not even f***in' joking." - Colin Farrell

Tiff: "and am I the only one who cringes at the "I feel Wicked" line? It's as if they put that line in just so the teeny-boppers can go, "Oooh, she said the name of the show!"

I'm not a teeny-bopper, but I really like that line. It's the first time Elphaba uses the word to describe herself, that's been used against her as a weapon.
