Thanks to the people in this thread who said nice things about me. Means a lot and makes my day. These comments are responses to last couple threads:
I loved the 1994 Tony Awards opening. OJ killed Ron & Nicole that night. Sam Cassell hit a shot to beat the Knicks in Game 3 of the NBA Finals. And my husband celebrated his 40th birthday. I met him exactly 3 weeks later.
TITANIC set broke down when I saw it and they had to stop the show. Nonetheless, it bored me BUT Iāve grown to love the score and would probably love the show if I could go back in time and watch it again. A lot of shows, I havenāt liked on first viewing. One of those is URINETOWN which is probably my favorite musical of all time. Didnāt get it til second viewing. Back to TITANIC, there was a production outside on an actual sinking boat with actors jumping into the water a few years ago. Thereās a YT video about how they did it (it involved scaffolding) but I canāt find it.
Just saw the current production of A DOLLāS HOUSE. I was in 100% the minute the first scene was underway.
Do we know Jennifer Hudson bought her Tony? Maybe she just lent her name not money.
I loved the CAMELOT revival. Saw it early in previews. I looked forward to it for months (LOVE the score) and it did not disappoint. My husband loved it too. He was in tears during the end of Act One.
LOL R140- I remember that discussion about the St James theater hilarious.
R170- Borle was nominated for FALSETTOS the same year he played Wonka.
R188- Yep- Itās been 8 years since HAMILTON opened. When are we getting his follow-up? Book, music, and lyrics, that is.
Can you believe the original PARADE lost to FOSSE? I wonder if DANCINā gives Jason Robert Brown PTSD.
Does anyone know Cameron Mackintosh? I think heās adorable. I first saw him at the CATS closing night party and was smitten but didnāt say anything and now, 23 years later, I saw him on YouTube at the Phantom curtain call and I swooned. Can anyone introduce me? Not looking for a job, just a kiss.
Ariana Grande is white. She was Penny in Hairspray!
R493- and afterwards? The 1960s were it for Judy!
Really upset about Todd Haimes. Didnāt know he was sick. Wrote him an email once and he responded kindly. I worked for Roundabout briefly. I played Moritz in an experimental production they produced of Spring Awakening back in 2001.
I leave you with thisā¦. the best Annie I ever saw and I saw Reba. {;o)
