"If you took the “W” from who, the “H” from ghost, the extra “A” from aardvark, and the “T” from tsunami, you could say “WHAT?” forever and nobody could ever hear you because it’s all silent."

That's one of my favorites too! She used different words when I saw it though. It was the W in answer and the T in listen.

And even though it closed...
"Oh my god, the whole thing turns."
-Dirty Rotten Scoundrels

"No, V-A-L-L-I"
"How come"
"Because you're Italian. You gotta end in a vowel. Delgado, Castoluccio, Pizza. Valli with an I, it says this is who I am, if you don't like it, you can go **** yourself"

My client, a rising young movie star, with a slight, recurring case of homosexuality, has informed me that to this evening's banquet he would like to bring his mother, so that nobody will know that he's gay.

ditto "six excruciating continents..." from Drowsy Chaperone. Brilliant! And then to have Bob Martin repeat it, just in case we didn't agree with how brilliant it was, even more brilliant!

I'd go for the Spelling Bee 'What' line, although I chuckle guiltily when I hear "I had to pound them with a rock" in 'Hairspray'.

[Bettyboy72]

Foster, I second the "cherry" quote. Best line in ages, especially as delivered by diva Julie White.

[Rathnait62]

Posted: 2/5/07 at 1:16pm

There are probably 15 lines - if not more - in LITTLE DOG LAUGHED, all uttered by White, that could count as my favorite of any current show.

The aformentioned 'bubble transport' line from WICKED. Kills me! Updated On: 2/5/07 at 04:08 PM

Posted: 2/5/07 at 4:19pm

There was a line towards the end of Act One in the current Company revival (it's probably in the original too) that I can not for the life of me remember. All I know is that either David or Paul says it, and it's a great line. So if anyone knows it... that's my answer!

Beth L in "The Drowsy Chaperone"..........when her character is asked, "Isn't it a little early for a drink?"

And, in her best Vera Charles...says, "I don't understand the question."

From Legally Blonde, which will be a current Broadway show:

Brooke: "I said, you're fired."
Margot: "Oh my God, it's so Apprentice!"

"Mother will sing 8, not 9"

I was underwhelmed with the cast recording of Grey Gardens, but after a little road trip I took this weekend, and some of the songs came on--I've fallen in love with a few of the songs . There are more lines in the show that made me laugh, but I can't think of them at the moment.
