It's as if we always knew...

Re: ooc:

[hottestpsychic.livejournal.com]

But I won't regret what I did for love...

Re: ooc:

[whereicantgo.livejournal.com]

What I did for love...



Great show.

Re: ooc:

[hottestpsychic.livejournal.com]

Oh yes. Fond memories of my childhood, there.

Re: ooc:

[whereicantgo.livejournal.com]

I saw the revival in NYC last year and...I'm not gonna say I cried but...

Re: ooc:

[hottestpsychic.livejournal.com]

Hah. Yeah, I think I would too if I got to see a revival. Or be in it. Not that I'm in shape anymore.

Re: ooc:

[whereicantgo.livejournal.com]

I'd actually never seen it before (but I know my sister is obsessed with the movie). But Paul's whole story just...*sniff*.

Yeah. If I A)Could act/sing and B) was in shape I'd be all over it. lol

Re: ooc:

[hottestpsychic.livejournal.com]

Paul's story is what convinced me not to try my luck on Broadway after/during college. And, yes. Much with the *sniff* and *whimper*

I, er. Used to dance. Used to being the operative phrase there.

Re: ooc:

[whereicantgo.livejournal.com]

I guess that would be another big factor for being on Broadway. Sadly, I can't do that either. lol

Re: ooc:

[hottestpsychic.livejournal.com]

I did the acting classes, not so much with that, so you can guess who I identified with on the show. *wry* But lots with the dancing and singing, but I decided not to become a starving artist waiting tables between gigs. Alas. :)

Re: ooc:

[whereicantgo.livejournal.com]

Such a glamorous life it is. lol

Yeah, I have to content myself with making a yearly week-long trip tp NYC to see as many shows as I can cram in.

Re: ooc:

[hottestpsychic.livejournal.com]

I used to do that. Not so much with the yearly week lng trips but the two or three weekends in the summer trips.

I should do something like that. Someday. Again. Maybe.

Re: ooc:

[whereicantgo.livejournal.com]

I live in IL. It gets too expensive to go more than once a year. I LOVE it when I do go, though.

We started about four years ago. My senior year of high school.

Re: ooc:

[hottestpsychic.livejournal.com]

I used to live on the east coast, four to six hours' train ride away, depending. Plus, friends who lived up there.

Now I live in NC so, yeah, it would be too expensive. But man I do miss the theatre.

Re: ooc:

[whereicantgo.livejournal.com]

Favorite show that you've seen?

Re: ooc:

[hottestpsychic.livejournal.com]

Hmm. Favorite show I've ever seen has to be Damn Yankees, but only because it was Jerry Lewis, and he actually broke his co-star on stage. They had to stop and catch their breath and regain character 'cause they were laughing.

Favorite show in general is probably... Notre Dame de Paris, which I saw in English in London a while back, but I'd love to see it in the original French.

*is a dork*

Re: ooc:

[whereicantgo.livejournal.com]

lol. Don't worry, I am too. But that makes me feel bad because all I've seen are newer shows. Wicked, Spelling Bee, Jersey Boys, Spring Awakening, the Chorus Line revival, Sweeney Todd revival, Little Mermaid, Young Frankenstein, etc.

Re: ooc:

[hottestpsychic.livejournal.com]

Well, you're ahead of me on the newer ones, then? :)

I used to go to the theatre with my family a whole bunch, I got... hm. Candide, Damn Yankees, I saw Cats a zillion times. Miss Saigon, A Funny Thing Happened To Me On the Way to the Forum (that was hilarious), Notre Dame... Threepenny Opera...

Lots of Shakespeare, which isn't musical, but. :)

Re: ooc:

[whereicantgo.livejournal.com]

I would have loved to see the Threepenny Opera revival. Mmm...Alan Cumming.

The only play I've gotten to see since we started these trips is Talk Radio with Liev Schreiber, but it was AMAZING.

Re: ooc:

[hottestpsychic.livejournal.com]

Threepenny Opera is just a kickass show; I didn't see it on Broadway, but I saw it in Stratford. It was nice.

I used to go to all sorts of things, plays, musicals, ballet. Annual Christmas sing-a-long at the Kennedy Center.

Re: ooc:

[whereicantgo.livejournal.com]

I wish I was closer to the city. I'd be there all the time.

Re: ooc:

[hottestpsychic.livejournal.com]

So would I. I really shoudl make the best of the theatre here though. There's a lot of good small theatre.

Re: ooc:

[whereicantgo.livejournal.com]

My friend and I are going to see Wicked Nov. 7th. It'll be my fourth time. What?! lol. It leaves in January and my absolute favorite boy is back! Besides, she's never seen anything more than school plays/musicals so I'm really excited for her to see it.

And I've got tix for RENT in Chicago in April.

Re: ooc:

[hottestpsychic.livejournal.com]

I still need to see Wicked... ever. And don't worry, I saw Cats a lot, and I saw Lord of the Dance. With Michael Flatley, wayyyyy too many times. Especially considering what an egotist he is. :)

Re: ooc:

[whereicantgo.livejournal.com]

I love it probably more than I should, but I kind of...identify with it, I guess. Mostly, though, I'm excited for her to see it...and then stage door it of course. lol

Re: ooc:

[hottestpsychic.livejournal.com]

Always the stage door!

Re: ooc:

[whereicantgo.livejournal.com]

No theater-going experience is complete without it. Although meeting Liev Schreiber and Raul Esparza in one day almost killed me.

Re: ooc:

[hottestpsychic.livejournal.com]

Ohh, I can imagine. Sigh of longing!

Re: ooc:

[whereicantgo.livejournal.com]

Both so insanely gorgeous talented.

[soldier-ofgod.livejournal.com]

*tilts his head slightly, listening*

[hottestpsychic.livejournal.com]

"It's as if we always knew / And I won't forget / What I did for love / What I did for love..."

*just singing softly*

[soldier-ofgod.livejournal.com]

*since he doesn't know the words, he doesn't join in, just listens.*

[hottestpsychic.livejournal.com]

"Gone / love is never gone / and as we travel on / Love's what we'll remember..."

... *abruptly realizes she has an audience, blushes*

[soldier-ofgod.livejournal.com]

*slight smile*

That was a nice song.

[hottestpsychic.livejournal.com]

*shy-ish smile* I like the musicals...

[soldier-ofgod.livejournal.com]

Musicals?

[hottestpsychic.livejournal.com]

Musical theatre. The song's from a musical play called A Chorus Line, about a group of young men and women trying to be successful as dancers...

[soldier-ofgod.livejournal.com]

I see. It's a form of human theater with music.

[hottestpsychic.livejournal.com]

... You should see this one, I think. You might learn something.

[soldier-ofgod.livejournal.com]

I don't usually watch human things.

[hottestpsychic.livejournal.com]

That's a shame. Human stories are influenced by and have their own influence on human lives. How we think reflected in theatre, or television, and both theatre and television have had its own influence on how we think.

[soldier-ofgod.livejournal.com]

I haven't walked the world in 2000 years Pam.

[hottestpsychic.livejournal.com]

Well, you've been out and about for a few weeks. Time to catch up, in between giving Dean cryptic instructions.

[soldier-ofgod.livejournal.com]

I've had battles to fight.

[hottestpsychic.livejournal.com]

Well, if you ever get some time to relax, come by and we'll catch you up on things.

[soldier-ofgod.livejournal.com]

On 2000 years of human culture?

[hottestpsychic.livejournal.com]

I've got the time if you do.

[soldier-ofgod.livejournal.com]

We will have to see.

[hottestpsychic.livejournal.com]

Then we'll see. I'm patient.
