Who was the best performer in number one?
Ali Momen as George

Why did you go to see number two?
Best reviews at Toronto's fringe festival

Can you remember a line/lyric from number three that you liked?
Whole scenes from it. 
"My mistress with a monster is in love
Near to her close and consecrated bower
As she was in her dull and sleeping hour
A crew of Patches, rude mechanicals
Who work for bread upon Athenian stalls"
etc.

What would you give number four out of ten?
Nine, Tony Kushner is brilling

Was there someone hot in number five?
Probably, but I was still ruminating on number 6 so I can't remember.

What was number six about?
Julia's hotness?  No wait, there were witches and... Julia being hot.

Who was your favourite actor in number seven?
Kristin Chenoweth

What was your favourite bit in number eight?
Being in hte same room as Angela Lansbury

Would you see number nine again?
It's not high on my list, but I wouldn't reject the idea.

What was the worst thing about number ten?
Boy, did it need workshopping again! I'm not even sure where to start.

Which was best?
Wicked

Which was worst?
I actually have the least to say about Chorus Line, I thought it was a fairly mediocre production of a great show. I'm not sure whether my opinion would be different had I not seen it the afternoon after I saw Wicked.

Did any make you cry?
Strangely enough, Chorus Line almost did.

Did any make you laugh?
Stairway, Sunday, Midsummer and Deuce

Which roles would you like to play in any of them?
Elphaba. Puck, and when I'm old possibly George's mother in Sunday.

Which one did you have best seats for?
Midsummer, lounging around outside on blankets and drinking wine makes for  great Shakespeare!
